Attitude for Greatness

By Pier Carla Garusi

What is attitude?

It is what you think, believe, feel, expect, act,
in relation to yourself, life, people, and your goals.

Attitude can be
positive or it can be negative; it can be limiting or it can be
expanding; if you have a positive attitude, you feel alive, well, loved,
happy, liked, confident – you feel good; if you have a negative
attitude, you feel angry, resentful, fearful, depressed, anxious,
hopeless – you feel bad. Your feelings are your thermometer to your
attitude and, as we will see below, your life is the mirror to your
attitude.

Now, how is your dominant attitude?

Is it positive, and expanding, or is
it negative and limiting? What do you think you can achieve?

Who do you
think you are?

What do you think about yourself?

What do you think
about other people?

Do you think they are out there to get you or to
help you? Do you expect to be liked by people or do you expect to be
judged?

Do you expect to be lucky?

Do you expect to achieve your goals?

 Do you expect that life is going to be difficult, that you will have to
struggle to make money, or do you expect life is wonderful and
enjoyable?

Your expectations determine what will happen in your life, as very
simply, what you expect, you get. So, if you are not sure of what your
expectations really are, take a look at your life:

whatever you have in
your life right now is a reflection of who you are inside and the
vibrations you send out. If you are struggling with money, with your
health, with a relationship, with your job, with people, it means that
somewhere your attitude is not healthy. So, if you want to change your
life, you need to change yourself, you need to change your attitude.

In fact, a healthy attitude is when you feel good about yourself, when
you know that you will achieve your goals, when you know people will
like and love you, when you know that things will work out, when you
know you are precious and the Universe is conspiring to your happiness. A
healthy attitude is when you love people, when you love yourself, when
you thank God for who you are and for all the wonderful gifts you have,
for all the people you have in your life, for all that has happened to
you, because that has made you the person you are today.

So, your attitude towards yourself has a strong impact on your
self-love, on the way you treat yourself, and so, on your health –
mental, emotional, and physical. Your attitude towards people will have a
strong impact on the response you will get from them, because if you
love them, if you are grateful, if you appreciate them, if you are kind,
they will love you back. So, three emotions are a key to great
relationships: gratitude, kindness and love.

In fact, as the most
important needs of any human being are the need for connection, the need
to feel appreciated and the need to feel loved, and everything that
happens in your life happens through people, whether is in your personal
or professional life, you need to have a very positive attitude here.
And this means always, really always, look at the positive and best in
people, you included. Look at the positive in people and circumstances,
and they will become that, you will take out the best from them, and you
will attract more of that. And look at the best in you, in how
extraordinary and unique you truly are, look at your gifts, qualities
and strengths, and you will develop a healthy esteem and love for
yourself.

And your attitude towards life will determine your success or failure,
whether you will achieve your goals and be the best you can be, or
whether you are going to struggle. Now, your attitude towards your goals
is also something more than that, because the expectation of
achievement, whether it’s the person you want to become or a goal you
want to achieve, makes you become that person and achieve what you want
before you actually have done it. It is the Law of Attraction. And the
more you have expectations and you take actions to achieve your goals,
the faster you are going to achieve them. So, let us suppose you want to
be confident or you want to be successful, if you have the attitude and
the expectations of being confident and successful, you are going to
feel confident and successful already now. It is simply a shift in your
consciousness.

Now, let us suppose you have developed a healthy attitude towards
yourself, life, people, and your goals. What do you do when you
encounter negative people or negative circumstances?

What do you do when
somebody gets angry at you? What do you do when you are driving and
someone cuts in your way?

Well, we need to develop an immune attitude,
learn to be immune to negativity. You need to learn not to let anything
disturb your peace of mind. You can simply ignore it and smile it away.
And think that things are temporary, that if you have a great attitude,
you will create a life where you have all that you desire and deserve, a
wonderful life, guaranteed.

So, what is the attitude you are going to choose?
