A good definition of "positive attitude" will emphasize beingaffirmative and certain, without being overconfident or intolerant

The simple definition is the way you dedicate yourself to the way you think. Interestingly, it's also the definition of a negative

attitude.

The more complex definition is how you choose to dedicate yourself to the way you think, how you choose to dedicate yourself tobeing positive, and how you choose to dedicate yourself to reactingin a positive way. And your choice must be consistent.

The only way you can tell what type of attitude you have is howyou react when things go wrong.

“Positive anything is better than

negative thinking.” ~Elbert Hubbard



"Positive attitude comes from within.“

"Positive attitude has nothing to do with what happens to you. It's what you do with, and how youreact to, what happens to you.“

Positive attitude comes from your ability to processthoughts in a positive way, regardless of the

circumstance. And it's never 100%. That's why, inspite of your determination to be positive at everymoment, you'll have highs and lows based on yourthought process and your vulnerability to others.

People are not disturbed by things, but by

the view they take of them. ~Epictetus



Most people let thoughts connected with worries, fears, anger orunhappiness occupy their mind most of the time. The innerconversation affects the subconscious mind. Words and thought that are repeated often get stronger with repetition, thus affecting

the behavior and actions of the person involved.

If you consciously choose the thoughts, phrases and words yourepeat in your mind, your life will start to change

You will be creating new situations and circumstances

You will be using the power of affirmations

Affirmations: sentences that are repeated often during the day,and which sink into the subconscious mind.

It is inevitable that life will sling some crap

your way. Nothing strengthens your drive like being kept from working on your goals.

Success is about how you deal with what lifethrows you. It’s about perspective. It’s alsoabout what drives you

As you spend time dealing with the negativity,

keep in mind your main goals. The negativitythat you’re dealing with may just fuel the firethat drives your success

Success Is About Learning How to Deal



A positive mental attitude is an absolute prerequisite for success. Aperson’s attitude determines how well they do and how far theygo in life.

One of differences between successful people and unsuccessfulpeople is the way they think. Successful people talk about the

things they want. They talk about achieving goals, good health,happiness, and prosperity.

Unsuccessful people talk about the things they don’t want. Theycomplain, worry, and talk about their problems.

A person with a positive mental attitude is someone who has apositive and constructive approach to the ups and downs that occur in life. It’s the ability to keep their mind on the things theywant in life an off the things they don’t want.

I don't like that man. I must get to know him better. ~Abraham Lincoln



The most successful students, leaders and employees present an

attitude that makes it clear to everyone around them that they arepositive, genuine, competent, self-confident and caring. That is

why every college student should come to realize that only with a

great attitude can they ever reach their full potential.

Your attitude makes itself known through your words, tone of

voice, actions, reactions, facial expressions, mannerisms and body

language. It is revealed in every aspect of your thinking and

behavior. As people read those signals, they make judgments about

you and your potential for success. People with great potential are

easy to recognize.



Use the right words. Use statements like, “I have a positive attitude,”

or “We’ll find a solution,” in daily conversation. The words you use ona daily basis have a major impact on your attitude and moods.

Strive for Optimism. Having a positive attitude is something youshould strive for. It isn’t something you are or are not, it is somethingyou become.

What company do you keep? Do your friends have negativeattitudes? Does it rub off on you? Many times the company we keepcan affect our attitudes. If your group at work or home negativelyaffects your attitude, take the necessary steps to change the situation.If all else fails, change the people around.

Know when you need a Change. When you know you aren’t happy,admit it to yourself and take action to reverse it. This is a very difficult thing to do especially when you aren’t in the mood to admit things toyourself. It may be hard, but it is worth it. When you are negative,realize it and change it.



85% of the reason a person gets a job and gets ahead inthat job is due to attitude; and only 15% is because of technical or specific skills. (Source: Harvard and Stanford University)

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, thanfailures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will makeor break a company... a church... a home.

The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding theattitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. Wecannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on theone string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that lifeis 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.

And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes

Wait long enough and people will surprise

and impress you. When you're pissed off and

angry at them you just haven't given them

enough time. Just give them a little more timeand they'll almost always impress you.

- Jon Snoddy



Every day you get up, get ready for work,get your family ready for work/school, andare on your way. Day in and day out, you dowhat you do because you have to. You areeither obligated to do what you do because

it’s your “duty” or you do it because youhave no choice. Or, so you think.

The reality is that just because you think

you have to do something, doesn’t mean youdo. You have a choice.

In fact, you always have a choice. You havefree will.



By giving yourself permission to choose how you spend your time,who you spend time with, what you choose to do, and how youchoose to think, you are free to be you, to freely express through

your words and actions who you are as a mature adult man orwoman.

The thought of that should make you smile. No longer do you needto do anything out of obligation. You can still choose to dosomething that you have to do; but you can do it because you want to, because as an adult who’s in charge of your life, you are

choosing to make that phone call or attend that family gathering. You can do what you do out of choice. It’s an empowering place to

be. By being at choice, you take charge of your life and your innerexperience. After all, it’s not only what you do and what youachieve, but how you feel about it that matters most



“Are some people just born

positive thinkers

. . . or is it their CHOICE ?”



When you think of work as an opportunity to do what youlove, to express yourself, and to utilize your potential, thenwork becomes play for pay. You choose your work and youchoose your attitude. There’s always a choice; you just may not like the options.
