One's attitude to any issue is determined by his/her belief about that issue. If one's belief towards an issue is unhealthy, then one's attitude toward that issue will be unhealthy. What this means is that the starting point in dealing with the problem of attitude is to deal with the belief system.

SAM GLENN

A Kick in the Attitude


Our individual life is an innocent reflection of our attitude, perception and belief. This is why anyone with a bad attitude is guaranteed to be miserable and unable to see all of the good that is happening everywhere. Love is everywhere! Beauty is everywhere! Happiness is everywhere ... why? --Because you bring it with you.

Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character; it becomes lack of power to act with courage proportionate to danger. All this must lead to the destruction of our intellectual life unless the danger summons up strong personalities able to fill the lukewarm and discouraged with new strength and resolution.

We've all worked with a Negative Nancy. She walks in the front door and happiness runs out the back. Everyone dreads having to collaborate with a Negative Nancy because that work attitude is so terrible. And you'd rather skip lunch than have to sit next to Nancy in the breakroom, subjected to the endless comparisons between the office and a medieval prison.... Negative Nancy is a huge buzzkill. For the sake of your career, stop being like Nancy and start making the most of your workday. You'll be glad you did.
