Internal attitudes and attitudes to certain events largely determine our life. The famous American speaker and writer John Maxwell said: "Your life depends 10% on what happens to you, and 90% on how you react to what is happening."
We can't control everything in the world. Often a case intervenes in the case, which ruins all our plans. But there is something that is subject to our control almost always ‑ this is our view of the world and reaction to a variety of events. These internal attitudes influence our actions, and actions affect our success.
Remember your friends who are constantly dissatisfied with something and complain about fate. It is unlikely that many of them can be called truly successful people. Most often, it is their dissatisfaction with life that makes them mock and laugh at other people's attempts to succeed.
A positive outlook on the world and the right attitudes in life, on the contrary, move forward. This inner warmth is also noticed by others, so the one who radiates it has a much better chance of finding good friends and acquiring useful connections. Look at the famous billionaires — they never sit in a corner, but inspire others to feats.
If we imagine the worldview in the form of a pyramid, its foundation would just be a positive, which is inextricably linked with new opportunities.
Negative-minded pessimists usually have a stable and absolutely inflexible view of the world. They are closed to everything new and unknown. Positive optimists, on the contrary, love and welcome innovation and creativity, which means they have much more chances to reach a new level in any sphere of life.
It can be difficult, but try to look for advantages in everything that happens in life and keep a positive attitude.
Fired from work? Yes, it will be difficult, but now you have the opportunity to "rebuild" your career and try something completely different.
Broke up with a loved one? You may be lonely, but you will learn a lot about yourself, and this will definitely help in the future.
Every unsuccessful event hides an opportunity — find it.
In the modern world, it is difficult to resist comparisons. Someone is angry that he is not as lucky at work as his friends. Someone is worried that, unlike friends, he has a complete collapse in his personal life.
Surrounded by many young people and teenagers, there are few real role models. Moreover, they often hear from their parents: "Don't jump over your head. Look what he wanted! Others have tried it, and they didn't succeed, but are you special?". All this makes you think that it is almost impossible to make your life better.
If the comparison monster is not taken by the throat in time, it will destroy life. And daily gratitude will help to defeat him. Stop giving all your attention to what you don't have and start appreciating what you have.
You can keep a gratitude diary and every day write down at least three things that happened during the day and for which you are grateful to life. Gradually, this inner attitude will become an integral part of the personality.
Useful internal installations are always a choice. We are genetically predisposed to negativity and expecting the worst. This is the very instinct of self-preservation that we inherited from distant ancestors. And although in the modern world we do not need to hunt a mammoth, our brain continues to look for danger. Therefore, we need to make an effort on ourselves and choose positive and gratitude every day.
Another component that should be added to these two installations is the desire to become outstanding, one of the best in any business. Positive attitude and originality go hand in hand. When you find something that you can do really well, you will become calmer and more confident in yourself, and therefore more optimistic.Do not forget that you should really like this activity, otherwise it is unlikely to bring a positive charge. It is difficult to enjoy life when you are doing something that does not bring pleasure.
Remember the great athletes. They are more likely to be competitive, a little arrogant, but at the same time they are used to maintaining a positive attitude. These character traits open up new opportunities for them, which strengthen their desire to become the best in their sport. On the way to greatness, they become self-confident and grateful for success, which fuels their self-confidence. And this cycle is constantly going on.
That is why positivity, gratitude and originality are inseparable from each other — they help a person to open up and become better. Our worldview is the key to a conscious and successful life. Turn this knowledge to your advantage and learn as many useful attitudes as possible. They will constantly and without delay lead you forward.
