ATTITUDE IS 100% OF EVERYTHING.
Did you know that if you put numbers to each of the letters in the word “attitude” – it would add up to 100? The message is attitude is everything in how we deal with life. I truly believe (because I’ve tried it) that when we ACT cheerfully, we have more fun. When we SMILE, it’s hard to be depressed. When we LOOK for little miracles that happen every day, we’ll see them everywhere.
Let me give you an example. My secretary Susie used to tell me that every day little miracles were out there if we just noticed them. So when we went to an event and a parking place was right out front, she’d say “See, that’s a little miracle just for you.” Or if we got a referral from a client, she’d say, “See there’s another little miracle for you.”
Here’s something that has helped me see my day positively. When I awaken, the first thing I do is find 5 things to be grateful for. Not only does this give me energy before my first cup of coffee, but as I say them to myself I’m reminded that life is good and there IS much to be grateful for.
An optimist may see a light where there is none, but why must the pessimist always run to blow it out?”~ Michel De Saint-Pierre
Here are three questions to consider:
How can you make what you’re doing right now more fun?
What’s something that you always thought would be fun but have never tried?
When is the next opportunity for you to actually schedule some fun into your life?
