Attitude is one of those things some people get very defensive about. If someone tells us that we have a bad attitude, we often try to blame the situation or another person for giving us the attitude or that we are just responding to their negativity.
But in truth, we are completely in control of our attitude. People and situations can only change our attitude when we allow it to. We have the power to control and choose our attitude and how we react and respond to life’s challenges.
Our attitude also affects our outlook on life, our beliefs, our future, our health and wellbeing and our over all happiness.
If you want to change your attitude into a positive one, you have to make a conscious decision to do so and if you find your old negative attitude trying to creep it’s way back in – you can choose not to allow it by reminding yourself that you are in charge of your attitude and negativity isn’t welcome in your life.
Yes, I am aware of just how easy I have made it sound J and I know it is not always easy to change your attitude, but with practice and determination you can do it and your life will be all the better for it.
Over time, it becomes much easier to notice when your attitude is negative making it so much easier to make the switch to positive. It’s like any skill you learn, focus and practice and you’ll get there.
