Attitude
For
Greatness
By Piercarla Garusi
What is attitude?
It is what you think, believe, feel, expect, and act, in relation to
yourself, life, people, and your goals. Attitude can be positive or it
can be negative; it can be limiting or it can be expanding; if you have
a positive attitude, you feel alive, well, loved, happy, liked,
confident,… you feel good; if you have a negative attitude,
you feel angry, resentful, fearful, depressed, anxious,
hopeless,… you feel bad. Your feelings are your thermometer
to your attitude and, as we will see below, your life is the mirror to
your attitude.
Now, how is your attitude, how is your dominant attitude? Is it
positive, and expanding, or is it negative and limiting? What do you
think you can achieve? Who do you think you are? What do you think
about yourself? What do you think about other people? Do you think they
are out there to get you or to help you? Do you expect to be liked by
people or do you expect to be 'judged'? Do you expect to be lucky? Do
you expect to achieve your goals? Do you expect that life is going to
be difficult, that you will have to struggle to make money, or do you
expect life is wonderful and enjoyable?
Your expectations determine what will happen in your life, as very
simply, what you expect, you get. So, if you are not sure of what your
expectations really are, take a look at your life: whatever you have in
your life right now is a reflection of who you are inside and the
vibrations you send out. If you are struggling with money, with your
health, with a relationship, with your job, with people, it means that
somewhere your attitude is not healthy. So, if you want to change your
life, you need to change yourself, you need to change your attitude.
In fact, a healthy attitude is when you feel good about yourself, when
you know that you will achieve your goals, when you know people will
like and love you, when you know that things will work out, when you
know you are precious and the Universe is conspiring to your happiness.
A healthy attitude is when you love people, when you love yourself,
when you thank God for who you are and for all the wonderful gifts you
have, for all the people you have in your life, for all that has
happened to you, because that has made you the person you are today.
So, your attitude towards yourself has a strong impact on your
self-love, on the way you treat yourself, and so, on your health-
mental, emotional, and physical. Your attitude towards people will have
a strong impact on the response you will get from them, because if you
love them, if you are grateful, if you appreciate them, if you are
kind, they will love you back. So, three emotions are a key to great
relationships: gratitude, kindness and love. In fact, as the most
important needs of any human being are the need for connection, the
need to feel appreciated and the need to feel loved, and everything
that happens in your life happens through people, whether is in your
personal or professional life, you need to have a very positive
attitude here. And this means always, really always, look at the
positive and best in people, you included. Look at the positive in
people and circumstances, and they will become that, you will take out
the best from them, and you will attract more of that. And look at the
best in you, in how extraordinary and unique you truly are, look at
your gifts, qualities and strengths, and you will develop a healthy
esteem and love for yourself.
And your attitude towards life will determine your success or failure,
whether you will achieve your goals and be the best you can be, or
whether you are going to struggle. Now, your attitude towards your
goals is also something more than that, because the expectation of
achievement whether is the person you want to become or a goal you want
to achieve makes you become that person and achieve what you want
before you actually have done it. It is the Law of Attraction. And the
more you have expectations and you take actions to achieve your goals,
the faster you are going to achieve them. So, let us suppose you want
to be confident or you want to be successful, if you have the attitude
and the expectations of being confident and successful, you are going
to feel confident and successful already now. It is simply a shift in
your consciousness.
Now, let us suppose you have developed a healthy attitude towards
yourself, life, people, and your goals. What do you do when you
encounter negative people or negative circumstances? What do you do
when somebody gets angry at you? What do you do when you are driving
and someone cuts in your way? Well, we need to develop an immune
attitude, learn to be immune to negativity. You need to learn not to
let anything disturb your peace of mind. You can simply ignore it and
smile it away. And think that things are temporary, that if you have a
great attitude, you will create a life where you have all that you
desire and deserve, a wonderful life, guaranteed.
So, what is the attitude you are going to choose?
