Tips to Develop a Positive Attitude:-

- Learn concentration and meditation
- Look at the bright side of life

1). Choosing the Attitude You Want to Develop:-
↣ Decide which attitudes you want to develop. For example, you
may desire to be more affectionate to your children or to be less critical.
Although your attitude determines to what extent you develop your potential,
nothing happens until you combine attitude and action.
2). Goal Setting:-
↣ Goal Sétting is essential to making a change. Consider where
you’re and where you would like to be. By choosing a selected attitude, you’re establishing an
area where you would like to be. So begin by reviewing who you are right now
and identifying any problem feeling or thoughts. Then develop appropriate goals
to change your attitude.
3). Journaling:-
↣ Journaling involves making notes about where you’ve got been and where you’re going. As you journal,
you reinforce your determination to change; you also record for yourself how
things have gone so far. Later, when you are working on a different facet of
your overall attitude, you can review your earlier journal entries to learn
what pitfalls to avoid.
4). Visualizing:-
↣ Visual image stimulates growth; that’s why visualizing is
key to changing your attitude. The Stanford Research Institute found that “89
percent of what we learn is visual, ten percent of what we learn is auditory,
and one percent of what we learn is through other senses”. Relax and visualize
yourself doing something that illustrates your new attitude. For example, if
you want to stop slouching and look more confident, see yourself standing tall
and looking at others in the eye.
5). Making Time:-
↣ Change requires a commitment of time plan to spend at least
21 days working on a specific attitude characteristic. Also, resolve now to
spend time on attitude changes throughout your life. Removing the wrong attitude on
a regular basis makes room for the right attitude to flourish.
6). SeIf-Talking:-
↣ Learn to compliment yourself. People need positive strokes
to equip themselves to repeatedly do their best work. It is not conceit, but a
balanced self-appraisal.
7). Affirming:-
↣ Post your attitude affirmation on your bathroom mirrors. For
example, I am healthy, I am patient, I am successful, etc. The marvelous part of
affirming is that your unconscious believes what you tell it and works to make
that come true. Therefore, you do not have to believe what you say; you only
need to really want it to become true.
