Your Attitude can change your life!

Have you ever wondered what is that one key characteristic of successful people?

Their attitude!

Rather their positive and never give up attitude!

Often, we have seen very talented people not making it big in life. At the same time, we have also seen average people climbing heights of glory. Why?

Your attitude towards life decides everything. Be it your success, your well being or your relationship with others.  

So, what is this attitude all about?

The dictionary meaning of attitude is “the way that you think, feel or behave”.

As per psychology, an attitude is referred to a set of emotions, beliefs, and behaviours toward a particular object, person, thing, or event. Attitudes are often the result of our experience or upbringing, and they can have a powerful influence over our behaviour.

Attitude is how we judge/evaluate people, events, objects etc in our life. It can be extremely positive to extremely negative.

Our response (behaviour) is the result of our attitude.

How one builds up an attitude?

Mainly through our upbringing (influence of parents and family), values and beliefs, experience, learning, observation, social factors including our role in the society and the norms of the society.

Can one change his or her attitude?

Yes, of course! There are many ways to change your attitude tilting it towards more positive mindset like identifying your strength, being non-judgemental, expressing gratitude, positive affirmations, celebrating other’s success, focus on your wellbeing, keeping your thoughts positive and likewise.

Attitude is how you look at your life! Why not look at the brighter side of it?

And as the famous quote by Zig Ziglar sums it so well:

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”

Cheers!

Do You Want to Play Victim?

Many a times life throws multiple challenges at you at the same time. Now, you have two options: Either you take them as a victim blaming your misfortune or accept each challenge as it is and look out for a solution.

In the first scenario, you will receive lot of sympathy, advise and some shoulders to cry on which will make you more comfortable in the bad situation that you are in. You get accustomed and as an escape route, you keep on playing the victim card.

On the other hand, if you choose the second option, you will face further more challenges, you will be drained out of time and energy, there would be endless nights of pain and misery and so on…but in the end when you come out of it, you will be that finest avatar of yourself that it would be nothing but the best of you! And you will be so proud of yourself thanking the almighty for giving you the opportunity to face such challenges that ultimately made you victorious…!!

Does De-Cluttering Helps?

You need to Declutter your life! Pic credit: Pixabay

The best way to improve your life is to Declutter yourself.

First and foremost, declutter the people who are harming you in anyway directly or indirectly. Do a review of the relationships around you. Are their people who just look down upon you, demotivate you, always criticize you. Are they source of your unhappiness? Cut them out of your life immediately. Don’t ever waste a single minute on them trying to prove them wrong or trying to please them. They will never change.

De-clutter the things you don’t require or to say…become less materialistic. Try to make it simple and useful rather than becoming ‘more and meaningless.’ Remember ‘Less is more’ in the present time. You will see that you are managing things very well and very efficiently.

Declutter negative and useless thoughts. Life is short and beautiful. Let it be full of meaningful and positive thoughts. Let go off the past.

Declutter negative emotions- Anger, Hate and Jealously, these are the three self-destructive emotions that will only harm you and will take away your peace. Why bother? Live your life and be happy!

Our mind is a powerful tool given to us by god, use it constructively to control the environment around you and not just let the environment control you and your thoughts.

Cheers!

Have you really matured?

The one thing that comes out very predominantly in a mature person is his or her ability to Tolerate. The power of tolerance that a mature person exhibits is very appreciable. A mature person will never…never react un-necessarily but would rather respond in a calm and sober manner. We see lot of things happening around us which we may not like or we don’t appreciate. And we are always in a hurry to ‘Give it back’ at the slightest of provocation! We seem to be so angry all the time!

We need to show maturity by tolerating ‘things’, ‘words’, ‘events’ and for that matter even ‘some people’ which/who might not be very pleasant to us. That is called maturity. And mind you…a person who tolerates doesn’t mean he or she is a weak person! No, rather the person is much strong…. mentally and otherwise.

So, I believe ‘Tolerance’ is the biggest virtue of a mature person.

What about you…Have you really matured?

It’s a Friday and a rainy day…think about it!

Cheers!

If I can give you only one tip to improve your life, what would it be?

If I am to give you only one tip to improve your life then it would be- Be Positive always!

Whatever be the adversity, always have a positive frame of mind. Always think that good will happen…soon! Hope for the good and be prepared for the worst. This is the ideal way to lead our lives. Remember, over thinking on any situation will not lead to a solution rather it will kill you slowly. It’s like over eating…not going to help you. So, always be optimistic. And believe me, when you start thinking positively, positive things start happening to you.

It’s the most fundamental law of the universe- Law of attraction! Have positive thoughts and you will attract positivity from the universe.

Life is full of challenges…every single day. You need to be mentally strong and positive to fight out those challenges. There would be tough times time and again, and again you need to be positive to face the tough times boldly.

So, always be positive howsoever bad the situation might be and you will see that it’s not that difficult to lead a happy and peaceful life!

Cheers!

What is it that you learned very late in life but wish you knew much earlier?

Who can be your best teacher? Pic credit : Pinterest

The following are the things that I realized very late in life and wish I could have known them earlier in my life: –

  1. Never stop learning: – Once you have completed your formal education and got into your first job, most of us say goodbye to the education. This is not correct. The education should continue side by side till your last day of life! Keep updating yourself. Learn something new always.
  • Be more Granular: – Avoid superficiality. Get into more details. This implies to every aspect of your life especially to your work/expertise. Remember, the more knowledgeable you are the more valuable you become to others.
  • Keep the time frame of your life in mind: – We have limited time in our life but we all live as if we would be living till eternity! So, ensure you achieve your goals in proper time frame. If you are not happy in your life then find out the reasons and fix the problem then and there. Don’t just wait that a miracle would happen some fine day and then you will have happiness. Time is precious!
  • Nurture your relationships: – This is very important. Often when young we give a damn to this. But we need people all the time – both in our personal life and in our professional life.
  • Taking care of your Parents in real sense: – They have less time. Do whatever you ever wanted to do for them. Do it now. Don’t wait for a suitable time. They will seldom ask for what they want. You have to understand them and provide them.
  • Be mindful of what and how you speak: – Nothing to add here 🙂

Cheers!
