Your attitude is what functions through your skills, education, experience, and abilities, determining if you are an Average Maker or a Difference Maker.
Here are a few ideas to help you get your best attitude to rise to the surface:
1. Feed your mind Positive Material
Take 5 to 10 min a day to read a book or listen to a motivational/inspirational audio cd.
2. What about the negative stuff that gets into our mind?
Experts tell us we should be drinking 8 glasses of water a day because it flushes our system of toxins. Same concept is true to our minds. We do this by wisely selecting who we hang around with, what we choose to believe, and what we listen to, watch and read, we are selectively deciding to fill ourselves with only the best.
3. Use uplifting, Empowering Words when you talk to yourself.
Change your self talk, its very powerful and important to get you feeling your best, doing your best and going for the best. And if people ask “Why are you talking to yourself?” just tell them “I like to talk to smart, good looking people.” Lol
4. Look for the lighter side of situations.
In every situation there is a brighter side or opportunity waiting to be discovered. Ask someone or several trusted people to help you see what you are not seeing.
5. Sing like a Rock Star!
I know this sound off the wall, but it works. Sing. Play some music loudly and sing to it. I like to sing “I’ve got Sunshine, on a cloudy day”. It will improve the quality of your mood!
6. Exercise
Your health has a huge impact on your attitude. Working out releases endorphins, which relieve stress and actually improve the quality of your mood. Do something at least 4 days a week for 30 min.
7. Eat Healthy and Rest Up
What we eat has a direct impact on our mind and body. Eat smaller portions. Eat that which will give your mind and body energy and life: Fruits, Vegetables, Nuts, beans,Fish. Don’t eat late at night either. Your body will be working all night trying to digest food when it should be resting and reviving you with energy.
8. Smile
Smiling makes you look good, feel good and attract others. Practice smiling more often.
9. Beware of toxic attititudes(people)
Some people have poor and negative attitudes and they don’t even realise it. Be on guard for these attitudes. Misery loves company and its always recruiting. Negative people have one goal in mind, to pull you down. Guard yourself from negative people by guarding your time with them and guarding your mind from their negative words.
10. Get Real
Ask those closes to you what kind of attitude they think you have. Now, be ready; it might not be the words you want to hear. If they say you are negative, or up and down, or dry, it’s an opportunity for you to improve, make it right and get healthy. Make some new choices and be open to changing.
