We live in a world of words … no matter what happens, there is always a word for it. Some words mean a great deal to us, words such as love, friendship, happiness, success, achievement, joy, ability, pride – but one word controls them all … ATTITUDE.
If your attitude is good, you usually obtain good results; if it is excellent, you gain excellent results; if poor you get poor results, if bad then bad results. If your attitude is only so-so, your results are mediocre. Your attitude is the key!
If you wish to test your attitude, answer this question. ”Do you feel the world is treating you well?” If your reply is ‘yes’, your attitude is good. If your answer is ‘no’, your attitude is poor, and if you have trouble deciding, you need some help.
The world is nothing more than a reflection of your own attitude. One of the sad aspects of society is the large percentage of people who become discontented and disenchanted because they focus on what they don’t have and refuse to look at what they do have.
It would be impossible to estimate the number of jobs lost, promotions missed, sales not made, marriages ruined – all due to a poor or bad attitude – and only because people waited for someone else to change towards them instead of being wise enough to realize that they needed to change themselves.
Sir Walter Scott once said, “Success or failure in any undertaking is caused by mental attitude even more than by mental capacities.”
Live in a world for others, not for yourself, and you will discover that you come out ahead. A generous attitude with a keen sense of humor is far better medicine than any tranquilizer or psychiatrist’s couch.

Great post sir. Attitude is what determines the outcome in almost everything that life presents us. A good quote that I like is that "Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude towards us."

Thank you MSG Stankovich. I appreciate the support and my focus with this thread was to get people to stop and think that they can control their outcome if they make that choice.

I am a big believer in a positive attitude can make all the difference sir. I get so frustrated when the first words out of people's mouths are "I can't" instead of "let's see what we can do to make that happen..."

If the point your making is that the world around you does not control your actions, only you can do that - I will say I understand your comment. If you're making a different point then I would ask for clarification in order to properly respond.

Tracking on all Senior Chief. There will always be external influences, be they social, political, economical, or whatever, that force us to a decision point. I believe that decision point makes all the difference when determining what results you will get. Excellent may be a bridge too far, but a positive attitude may help steer you in the right direction. It certainly doesn't hurt.

The rally point is nominated and considered positive for future times. The theme of the https://www.topreviewstars.com/best-homework-help-services/ for all issues. The path is fit for the approval of the goals or the documented element for the things.
