Attitude development
Your Attitude Matters
There is very little difference in people, but that little
difference makes a big difference. The little difference is
attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or
negative. The fact you see or the state you are in remains the
same, only the way you look at it changes. Positive thinking
does not always get the job done but it changes the way you look
at the things. Right now, just grasp the idea that your attitude
in any given situation is your choice, and the attitude you
choose will determine your happiness and achievements in life.
Let me illustrate this with a story. It is about a young bride
from the east whose husband was stationed in the desert during
World War II. She decided to go with him even though she was
told that the living conditions there were very bad and tough.
While with her husband she lived in a small hutment of a
village. Living conditions were really bad; the place was full
of sand and was infected with snakes. The wind constantly blew
and sand got into everything. The days were long and boring with
no kind of entertainment available. The only people she saw were
the tribal and they did not speak her language. When her husband
was ordered further deep into desert on certain mission, she
decided she just could not take it anymore. She wrote to her
mother that she was coming home. Her mother answered with just
two lines, "Two men looked out from prison bars. One saw mud,
the other saw the stars.
After reading the lines over and over, she began to feel ashamed
of herself. She did not really want to leave her husband. She
made a choice to look for the stars. Over the next few weeks,
she made friends with the tribal and started learning their
language. They taught her weaving and pottery. She became
fascinated with their culture, history and almost everything
about them. She also began to study the desert and found it to
be fascinating, not the desolate place she had been seeing. She
wrote to her mother and got her to send books about the desert.
She studied all the different types of trees. She
collected
seashells that were left there millions of years ago when the
sand of the desert was an ocean floor. She eventually became
such an expert that she wrote a book about it. What had changed?
Not the desert; not the sand. By simply changing her own
attitude, she had transformed a miserable experience into a
highly rewarding one. That is the lesson we can learn. Your
attitude is key to happiness and success in life, and you have
complete control over it. Each of us shapes our own life, and
the shape of it is determined by the attitude we hold most of
the time. Attitude Is Important--It Affects: How successful you
are in achieving your academic and personal goals. How you feel,
mentally and physically and finally How you look, what you say
and what you do all depends on your attitude. It is important to
have positive attitude if you want to be stress free, happy and
successful in life.
Do You Have A Positive Attitude? You have a positive attitude if
your answer to following questions is in affirmative: · Are you
willing to learn, no matter how difficult it is? · Do you do
your best when studying, and try to improve how you do your
work? · Do you demonstrate enthusiasm in whatever you say and
do? · Do you welcome challenges, experiment and try new ideas? ·
Do you have a sense of humor by not taking yourself too
seriously?
