our attitude determines what you see and how you see it

In the space of a single moment, your life can dramatically change for the better.  Without any visible change in your surroundings, without a sound or a look or even as much as a twitch from you, suddenly you can be a whole different person.

Choose to change your attitude, and you can immediately be living in a new world.  Choose a positive attitude and suddenly you have placed yourself in a world filled with positive possibilities.

Your attitude determines what you see and how you see it.  Your attitude determines what you are willing to do with whatever is available to you.

Certainly there are plenty of valid reasons to go through this day with a negative, despondent attitude.  But even if there are a million compelling reasons to be negative, there’s a reason to be positive that outweighs them all.

The fact is, a positive attitude empowers you in the way that nothing else can.  The more reasons there are to be negative, the more powerful it is to be positive.

So you can make excuses or you can make your way forward.  Instantly change your life for the better, be positive, and get the power that enables you to do great things.

I gained 2 lbs this month and chose to not be negative about it and will work harder to positively bring about change!  Thanks for this post.

That is the right attitude to have. There's no use crying over spilled milk. 

P.S. You're welcome!!
