Positive Attitude

Other People Can Affect Our Attitude


Our attitude is our state of mind, which is how you feel about yourself, other people, and the things around you. A positive attitude allows us to develop into a happy and successful person. Just as it is important for us to develop a positive attitude by controlling our thinking and the things we say to ourselves, it is also important to understand that others can affect our attitude as well.

Imagine that your mind is this very special place, a magical container that whatever you allow into it will determine what type of person you will become, how happy you will be, and what level of success you will achieve. Remember the definition of Attitude is “Our State of Mind”. We have to guard and protect our mind to keep it healthy. Just like with your body “you are what you eat”, with your mind, “you are what you let in it”.

We can not let others do what is called “Garbage Dumping”, dumping their negative thoughts, feelings, and images in our mind. We have to be careful not to listen to ugly words and bad language of other people. We have to guard our mind against negative images we see on TV or in magazines. All the negativity that is in this world, if we let it in our minds, IT WILL affect who we become.

Remember, to have a positive healthy attitude about life and to be happy and successful, we have to use positive thinking from ourselves, and protect our mind from the negativity of others.
