How Do You Get A Positive Attitude?

by Andre Vatke

Believe it or not, attitude is a choice. And as a function of our repeated choices, it becomes a habit. For better or worse that habit can be hard to break.

Here’s a sobering fact: 100% of your success is tied to your attitude when listening, communicating and interacting with others. Everything you do or say comes out or is colored by your attitude.

Most people think that their attitude is somehow tied to their mood. But attitude has nothing to do with what happens to you. it has to do with how you respond or react to what happens to you.

A positive attitude comes from your ability to process your thoughts in a positive way, regardless of the circumstance surrounding it. And it’s never 100%. That’s why no matter how determined you are to have a positive attitude, you will still have ups and downs based on your thought process and vulnerability to others.

The interesting thing is that someone can make you angry in a second, but it takes years to achieve a consistent positive attitude - or what I call ‘grounded optimism’ in my course, ‘How To Turn Cold Leads Into Hot Prospects.’

Your everyday thoughts and actions build the foundation for your attitude - either positive or negative. If you consistently do little things with a positive attitude, the habit will build and you will find it playing out in bigger things.

How start each day on the right foot…

A big part of developing a positive attitude begins with what we feed our mind. Our mind is the most complex supercomputer yet developed, capable of billions of simultaneous computations. Everyone has problems, issues, and challenges in their lives. The difference between those who accomplish positive results and those who do not is found in the thought process that goes into figuring out the solution to these everyday issues.

Make point to start each day, right when you wake up, to read write, and contemplate something positive.

If you have the opportunity, share a positive thought or action with someone else. The act of giving is often the greatest gift of growth we can give ourselves.

The opposite of contemplating the positive and expressing it is procrastinating. Resolve yourself today to make a lasting change in your life by working on your own attitude each and every day, starting now!
