Attain, achieve, and maintain a positive attitude

A little Monday morning inspiration from my favorite sales author, Jeffrey Gitomer...

"Most everyone thinks they have a positive attitude, but they don't. Usually not even close. They don't understand the essence of "attitude". It's not a feeling - it's a state of mind that is self-induced. You are in complete control of it. You determine what your attitude is.
  • It has nothing to do with what happens to you.
  • It's not about money or success. It is, pure and simple,
  • the way you dedicate yourself to the way you think.
Here's the formula to attaining a positive attitude:

1. Surround yourself with positive things and positive people
2. Read and listen to positive books, CD's, tapes
3. Say all things in a positive way. How you can, not why you can't
4. Believe you can achieve it.
5. Don't listen to other people tell you you're nuts. They're just jealous.
5.5 Start now and work at it everyday. Simple? Yes. But it does take hard work.
