The American Heritage Dictionary defines ATTITUDE as a “state of mind or feeling with regard to some matter”
For me, attitude can be defined as one word…LIFE. • It makes an incredible difference in your LIFE. • It can be a powerful tool for positive action. • It can be a poison that cripples you. • It dictates whether you’re living life or life’s living you. • It determines whether you’re… • ON THE WAY or IN THE WAY.
Today, let’s discuss how to turn ATTITUDE intoREALACTION!Follow the Steps to Greatness
Your attitude reflects YOU. Focus on the POSITIVE. Your Setbacks can be Setups for even greater opportunities. Be committed to change!
Stop Negative Assumptions They can’t afford it. They’ll never buy. They’re a pain to work with. They’re just looking for a good deal. They probably already know what they want. If I ask for referrals, customers will think I’m pushy. They’re cheap.
Make them Positive... They can afford it, if they want it. They will buy if I give them what they want. They have high standards. They want the best value for their money. I can help them discover what they want. If customers like me and my service, they’ll be happy to give referrals! They will spend on things that are valuable to them.
Your choices TODAY impact your successes TOMORROW. Happiness is Your’s to create. Build your attitude from the INSIDE out. Watch what you say to yourself.
The BAGGAGE you carry shapes your attitude. “IF-only?”; “What-now?”; “What-if?” The root causes of bad attitude are-Low Self Esteem, Stress, Fear, Resentment, Anger. Toss the BAGGAGE and lighten the load.
Buffer Yourself from “Toxic Negativity” People who are: • Judges and Critics • Professional Victims • Soap Opera Stars • Bitter to the Core
Change your attitude with a change in PERSPECTIVE. Give yourself permission to love and forgive. See Failure as an Event. Don’t Take it Personally.
“Failures” Who Made It Big... • Harrison Ford was told early in his career by a studio exec that he’d never make it as a leading man...he didn’t have “it.” • In high school, Michael Jordan was cut from the basketball team. • Thomas Edison failed 6000 times before the light bulb. • Charles Schwab was dyslexic and almost flunked out of Stanford after failing English twice. • Vanessa Williams was de-crowned Miss. America and has become a an award-winning African-American actress.
Every failure, obstacle or hardship is an opportunity in disguise. Success in many cases is failure turned inside out. Eliminate the negative attitude and believe you can do anything. Replace 'if I can, I hope, maybe' with 'I can, I will, I must.” Mary Kay Ash Founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics empire
How do YOUrespond to failure? OR What can I learn from this experience? I’m such an IDIOT! I’ll never try THAT again!
Your attitude is YOUR responsibility… Start managing your emotions. • Change your perspective. • YOU determine the value of YOUR life experiences. • Life is 10% what happens to YOU and 90% how YOU respond to it.
You must have VISIONS, GOALS and PLANS to turn attitude into action. Lack of VISION will make you lose. Develop a complete GAME PLAN.
BE PREPARED to take action BEFORE a situation occurs. Victory lies on the other side of each challenge… KEEP THE FAITH.
Self-coach through AFFIRMATIONS. I AM somebody. Yes, I CAN. Visualize SUCCESS. Kick yourself in the _ _ _ !
Motivation… • Count your blessings daily. • Get proper rest and exercise. • Set aside personal time with family and close friends. • Help someone less fortunate. • Read and listen to motivational books and tapes. • Motivation is not permanent. • Reflect on your victories – things you’ve forgotten that were special. • Create an upbeat, positive greeting.
