Attitude is our perception and beliefs about ourselves, people and the world.  A healthy attitude can infuse us with strength, power, and optimism.  It brings joy and endurance.  On the contrary, a negative attitude can fill us with exhaustion, bitterness, and pessimism.  It brings sadness, anxiety and negativity.  

Attitude is……………….

Ø      Not what happens to you but what you do with it

Ø      Whether you see the glass as half empty or half full

Ø      The yardstick against which moment is measured

Ø      Contagious, inspirational, and empowering

Ø      What gets the job done

Ø      What makes us feel free or what makes us feel imprisoned

Ø      What makes us see the good in a bad day

Ø      That quality that makes us keep trying

Ø      What gets us through adversity

Ø      Capable of helping us to change our lives

Ø      What gives us hope

Ø      A state of mind

Ø      Valuing what you learned from a painful situation

Ø      Part of our character

Ø      What defines us

Ø      A self-fulfilling prophecy

Ø      Being able to value what we have rather than grieve what we don’t

Ø      Knowing that this too will pass

Ø      The belief that there will be better days

Ø      Creating your own joy

Ø      Re-inventing yourself

Ø      The glasses through which you see yourself and the world
