Title: Winning Attitude
Scriptures: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. – Philippians 4:13
A positive attitude will help you reach your goal. When you have a positive attitude and a dream, you have the power to “press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called you heavenward in Christ Jesus”. Your attitude not only directs your future, but it also affects who you are today. People can and do alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. You see, Attitude is a choice! Despite the circumstances of our upbringing, despite our limitations, despite what other people may or may not be doing, you and I are responsible for our attitude and our personal reaction to the events of our lives.
We can move bravely toward success, or we can allow something to conquer us and roll over and die. It’s that simple.
Your attitude determines life’s attitude toward you.If you go through life expecting the worst, you will get the worst. What you believe about life determines how your perceive life, which eventually determines what you receive from life.
[pullquote]Your attitude determines life’s attitude toward you.[/pullquote]Surround yourself with the right people. Relationships are meant to empower you and should never victimize you. If any relationship isn’t helping you become who you want to be, walk away. I call this addition by subtraction. A healthy mindset gives you stylish rose-colored glasses. Be grateful. It’s impossible to have a bad attitude when you have gratitude. Be grateful for everything you have because there are people who will never have what you have today.Believe.
Some signs of a great attitude:
- Believe in yourself:In order to succeed, you must first believe in yourself.If you have low self-confidence, you will most likely struggle in life. A strong positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success in life.
- We should learn to love people and try to see the good in other people.You usually see in other people what you expect to see, so focus upon the positive in others, so they will rise to meet your level of expectation.
- learn to see opportunity everywhere even conflict presents opportunity! Opportunities are not based entirely on luck or position, they exist because of the right attitude.
- Learn to focus on tne solutions not the problems. We should not spend our time focusing upon our problems, but instead spend our time focusing upon solutions.Most of the things worth doing, like going to the moon in the 1960’s, were declared impossible before they were done.
- Be Generous to people : Positive people focus their time and money and energy on what they can give to others rather than what they can get from them.
- Be persistence: Many people fail in life because they did not give forth the time to stick to their ambitions. Eventually I will be successful because I’m persistent.
- Take responsibility for your own life: Successful people take responsibility for their own actions.We must be willing to step forward and take responsibility for our thoughts and our actions.
Let’s get something straight. Winners quit. They quit the right things at the right times. They also choose the right things to start and focus only on those things. That’s why you wouldn’t consider thinking of them as quitters.
