Found a nice write-up on attitude
----------------------------------------------------
ll of us have innumerable skills, deep knowledge about things,
treasure of other resources and best opportunities yet only few of
us succeed in life. Skills, knowledge, talents and wealth alone
won't make us successful. We need them surely, but we need more a
positive attitude to win our battles. It is our attitude that makes
us progress in our lives and become successful in our careers.
Success and performance depends on our attitude. A person with
positive attitude is a high performer. In our life there are things
over which we have no control or have very little control. But if we
control our attitudes these uncontrollable things will contribute
positively to our personality.
People react differently to the same event. It's strange! It's the
result of our attitudes. External events may be beyond our control,
but our reactions are fully under our control. If we have the right
attitude we will use every event to celebrate our lives.
Attitude is the way we look at the world. We can look at the world
in two ways: either positively or negatively. Our personality
depends on the way we choose to take. And depending on this we can
be the biggest asset or the biggest liability in our society and
organisation. It depends on our attitudes. We have to control our
attitudes and cultivate in us positive attitudes in spite of all
struggles.
We can change our attitudes. William James tells, "the greatest
discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their
lives by altering their attitudes of mind." Great buildings have
great foundations. The foundation of our happiness, our success and
our productivity is our attitude. If I am a person of negative
attitude I can choose to become a positive minded person. It's
possible and easy to control and change our attitudes.
To change our attitude we must learn to think positively whenever
something negative happens to us. Try to see something good in every
person and in every event. Speak positively about people and about
us. Fill our minds with more positive thoughts than negative ones.
Think `I can' and we will succeed. Learn to look more at the half-
full glass and forget about the half-empty glass and we will see
life in full everywhere.
When we have the right attitude we won't be going for the never-
ending search for diamonds outside us. When we have the right
attitude we realize that we are walking on diamonds. We see in every
event and person a great opportunity for us to learn and grow. We
will be optimistic and see only good in every person and everywhere;
we will begin to count our many blessings instead of counting our
few failures. With the right attitude every failure becomes an
opportunity for us to learn and walk towards success with greater
determination and passion.
Our environment, education and experience also can determine our
attitudes.
Environmental factors like our homes, school, friends, work
atmosphere, media, cultural, religious, social, and political
situation etc can mould our attitude. The positive experience we
have of a person, event and situation also gives a positive
attitude. Wisdom, knowledge, skills and qualification also can
determine our attitudes. We need to consciously choose to acquire
the right attitudes.
Fruits of positive attitudes
A person with positive attitude is caring, confident, patient,
humble, cheerful, fun loving, positive, hardworking, dedicated,
committed and has high expectations about himself and others. He
constantly improves his productivity, has an easy approach to
problems, improves quality of work, creates lasting and effective
relationships, is highly loyal to the organisation, passionately
contributes to its profit, reduces stress, forms in him a pleasing
personality, is courageous to take risks and initiatives, and takes
responsibility for his growth and performance.
The negative attitude also has some influence on a person which can
ruin his career and his life. He becomes bitter, resentful and a
pessimist. It has bad effects on his health and performance. He
complains constantly that roses have thorns and fails to see the
beautiful roses among the thorns.
Attitude affects our every aspect of life. Happiness is the product
of our attitudes because right attitudes will produce right actions.
Only right actions can make us happy. If we have the right attitude
we will see the invisible, feel the intangible and achieve the
impossible. Having positive attitudes is a sure way to succeed in
life. It is a sure way to long and cheerful life.
Let us opt for a great attitude to have a great life.

Hello Friend
Nowadays people are not much concentrating on developing the positive attitude and those who follow are limited and very much successful. The reason what people tell in not following the positive attitude is that, there is no time to wait and see what positive attitude can bring to thier life. Some where I read the word 'IMPOSSIBLE' when seen with a positive attitude would look like I'M POSSIBLE. So these attitude. It all depends on how we view the life.
