The Power of a Positive Attitude
By Shannon Herod
You wake up in the morning sleepy and fatigued; the day has to start but
you do not want it to. You stumble around; stub your toe on the dresser and
step on the dog. What do you do, get mad and waste the day with anger or get
excited because you woke up this morning and the day is going to be awesome.
Unfortunately, most of us fill our day with negativity from the moment we
get out of bed. Then we wonder why our day is not the best it can be.
Attitude affects every aspect of your life- even your on-line business- so
why not have a great attitude. The good news is you control your attitude,
not me not circumstances, and you do. Every time you get excited about your
day, you made the choice to be excited. When you walk through your day with
negativity it was a choice you made.
Make The Right Choice
Making the choice to stay positive is an easy task but it takes
commitment and will not happen over night. It is learning to find the
positive in every situation and retraining your sub conscious mind to think
in the positive instead of the negative. Unfortunately, we are bread to
think negatively from the time we can walk but we can retrain ourselves to
be the positive motivator that takes charge and wins in life.
Read on to learn the techniques I use to maintain a positive attitude.
Make A Goal To Change
People often ask me why I am so happy all the time and I tell them
because I made a goal to control my attitude. Setting a goal to make a
commitment to change your attitude is the foundation that must be laid. If
you need help on how to set a goal, you can read my article on goal setting

Affirmations
Affirmations are the key to maintaining a positive attitude. An
affirmation is a positive statement said in the present tense with
conviction. For example, I am a money magnet, money flows to me easily and
effortlessly or I am an extremely positive person at all times. I made a
list of seven affirmations that I say twice a day every day and I recommend
you do the same. I say my affirmations every morning in the shower and at
night before I go to bed and when ever i fill negative about something, this
way they will be imbedded in my sub-consciousness through out the day.
Fight A Negitive With A Positive
Every time you find yourself thinking negatively, turn it in to a
positive thought and repeat it ten times. It takes 10 positive thoughts to
cancel out one negative thought. Every thing can be put into a positive; for
example, you are stuck in rush hour traffic and you want to get home to see
your family. This is an easy situation to get negative about but instead
make it a positive by saying this is awesome, I now have time to clear my
head from work so when I get home I can give my family my full attention.
Now when you get home you are in a great mood and ready to play with the
kids instead of being grumpy.
Follow through on what you just read and you will be surprised at how
much better life and business will be. This will be a tough road but is any
thing worth achieving easy!
