You and your Attitude

It is said that your attitude determines your altitude in life. Actually, you live and act the way you think. The way you act in life determines how far you go or what height of achievements you scale or how you find things in your life. Your attitude must be positive. A person with positive attitude will find a hundred ways out of all limitations whereas the one with negative attitude will see a hundred problems in every way. During my journey as an educationist, I have encountered hundreds of students, many being average or even below average, who are excelling in some way or the other and are now befitting examples of attaining, through positive frame of mind, what initially seemed to be impossible or too difficult for them. You must have seen that some people get discouraged, disheartened, disappointed and broken just because of initial failures or small troubles whereas there are others who don't lose their equanimity and are mentally prepared to face and overcome the challenges; sooner or later, such people gain what they have been striving for. It is their positive attitude that keeps them going in every situation. Once, years back, a student of mine shared a line with me and that line was "In your most trying hours, say to yourself that they will also pass away." This line reflects positivity of her attitude. Today, she is the CEO of a company. A positive attitude not only shields you against all odds but also paves your way to success.If you think that you aren't getting what you want, you must want it at the cost of your thinking i.e. change your thinking. Remember, if you wish to pull your socks up, you'll have to turn over a new leaf and make an all-out effort, leaving no stone unturned. Until you change your attitude, your level of achievement won't change. So, it is your attitude that makes all the difference in your life. Stay positive in your attitude and keep going ! 👍😊
