attitude we believe that no matter how many times we fell we could still run walk and ride a bicycle we never blame the world for our failures as we grew up our parents friends and teachers started pointing out many flaws and faults in us this began to Cloud our thinking like a fog muddying our perspective so we could no longer see the world with the innocence of childhood this positivity becomes obscured by our past experiences external factors or other people can motivate you for a while but sustaining it for the long term must come from

within you might think you don't have the power to change your attitude right but you're mistaken because history has proven that those who have tried before you have succeeded in this let's hear a story that will prove changing your attitude is entirely possible for everyone Victor Frankl was a prisoner in a Nazi death camp he experienced hunger and cold intimately every day he endured countless sufferings due to the dehumanizing experiences there his entire family had either died in the camps or in gas Chambers which multiplied his grief manifold his life had become synonymous with sorrow

if you think carefully there was nothing in his life that could give him hope or reason to live he was living in a real life hell anyone else in his place might have lost all hope but he never gave up he believed that our attitude defines everything he believed that even if everything else was forcibly taken from him he could still survive comfortably if he retained one thing the power to choose the Power of Choice is our attitude despite being imprisoned he learned from everything the most important lesson he learned was that it doesn't matter

what your situation is what matters more is how you view it being in prison is not easy prisoners are treated very harshly Victor carefully observed how this harsh treatment affected other prisoners these conditions changed everyone but Victor didn't let it affect him he believed that lack of food sleep physical or mental health does not decide who we are or what we will become in the future the only way to survive like a successful person is to adopt a positive attitude just because you are imprisoned does not mean you are a criminal as long as you

maintain a positive mindset you are truly free in death camps where humans were treated worse than animals shaking one to the core Victor not only survived but emerged stronger than before he became a renowned figure in the field of psychology and established a unique identity his bestselling book Man's Search for meaning reflects his knowledge and profound understanding you are a human magnet like many others you might have often wondered why only a few people achieve success While others do not the answer is simple we are what we think we are this means that we become

exactly what we think about ourselves if you continuously think about a goal that you truly want to achieve all your energy becomes focused on that goal you will naturally start taking actions to achieve it because your attitude has already set you up for Success when we strongly believe in something we begin to attract it towards ourselves when we truly believe that we can achieve any anything and this thought embeds itself in our brain we indeed end up achieving it if your goal is to cultivate a positive attitude then you must think about it not just

for a few seconds but throughout the day the author of this book Jeff Keller shared his story of how he became a real estate owner his dream began when he saw people in his City investing in properties one after the other and earning manifold returns yes real estate owners face many difficulties but they also earn significant profits Jeff wanted to be one of them this dream was constantly on his mind however he couldn't make the first move because he was afraid of failing he thought about every possible obstacle he pondered over problems dealing with tenants

rant issues and numerous other problems s he was thinking about his goal with a negative attitude but once Jeff started reading books about the power of attitude his mindset changed in 1986 he decided that he would invest in two properties that year he was no longer afraid he was moving toward his dream with a positive attitude for 6 months he repeatedly thought about buying two houses that year every evening he met with real estate a to look for houses he did not rush he moved forward with patience and took action to make his dream come

true and as he desired before the year ended he had bought two properties this would not have been possible if his attitude had not changed by changing his perspective of thinking today he is a successful real estate owner he indeed made his dream come true picture your way to success to achieve your goals you must have a clear picture of your destination in mind many famous singers and athletes say that they have been imagining their success since childhood these images running through our brains create a movie which can reveal a lot about our past only

you can control the mental images you create no one else can as as children our brains had no mental background clutter we were extremely positive and believed we could do anything as if the whole world was ours and nothing could stop us as we grow older our experiences often Cloud our belief in ourselves like a fog whenever we try something new we recall past failures and end up not even trying repeated failures fill our mental capacity with negative ity you are responsible for these outcomes if you have created a negative image only you can turn

it into a positive one so relax and create a new positive image of your story involve all your senses in this visualization to truly feel it from within Robert is a great example of this he was nominated for a judge's position from childhood his dream was to become a success UC ful judge when he was nominated he felt both happy and Incredibly nervous and he noticed he was becoming more nervous by the day Robert was truly qualified for this post having the ability and a high chance of winning the election because Jeff was his friend

he gave Robert a life-changing piece of advice Jeff suggested that Robert should add judge to his signature making him judge Robert Jones and placed this signature where it would always catch his eye therefore Robert signed a piece of paper and kept it in his wallet his own signature constantly reminded him of his dream even though he was not fully aware that this mental image Was preparing him to be a judge this led to even stronger images forming in his brain he became convinced that he really was a judge Now to turn this image into reality

he began to take action he vigorously engaged in his campaign and pushed his party to perform their best to maximize his votes Robert was already a strong personality with a high chance of winning but these images made him even stronger once these images transformed into a positive attitude nothing could stop you from creating whatever you want in life make a commitment and you will move mountains achieving any goal is impossible without commitment it is the most crucial part of our achievements true commitment means having the desire to do whatever it takes to reach your goal

this commitment is nothing short of magical when you start focusing on your dream you will notice that New Paths to reach that dream begin to open up these paths were always there but when you start committing to something you begin to attract it however commitment alone is not everything life will test You by placing many obstacles in your path you must maintain patience and an unyielding attitude commitment is not just about taking action it is also about standing firm no matter how long it takes in 1999 Jerry Gladstone started his company loving the idea of

selling toys a year later he decided to focus solely on selling animation art Jerry was selling animation art from various Studios but was not satisfied with the results of his company he knew that if he wanted significant success he would need to focus on selling Disney Art therefore he contacted Disney but they rejected his offer Jerry did not give up he continued to offer Disney a partnership for three years one day a Disney team member became so annoyed by his constant phone calls that he left a voicemail saying Jerry would never get a deal with

Disney what do you think did Jerry give up absolutely not he started calling even more frequently Disney's people became so exas aspirated by his persistence that they finally offered him a deal however there was one condition Jerry could only sell Disney Art if he opened a store in Minnesota or Massachusetts Jerry lived in New York and loved his City dearly reluctantly the very next day he set off for Boston Massachusetts he found a location there and called Disney again when the team saw his commitment they were impr ressed and invited him to join the Disney

program a year later he was permitted to open a store in New York as well and 10 years later Jerry became one of the world's largest sellers of animation art part two watch your words your words blaze a trail you might wonder why discussing the selection of words or phrases is so crucial you should know that your words can either make or break your future words strengthen your attitude if your words are positive your attitude will undoubtedly be positive as well therefore we must choose our words carefully this process begins with a thought then it

becomes a word followed by belief action and finally the result is right before us once you create a positive image of in your brain start using positive language to help guide you towards your goal you can share your dream with others but you must be cautious share your positive thoughts only with those who are themselves very positive such people have the power to help you advance further they can even stand by you when you need to be accountable the story of Kent Calhoun is very inspiring Kent was a scientist at NASA and the leader of

the search for extraterrestrial intelligence project Kent had earned a doctoral degree in physics he was trying to develop software that could detect other living beings in the universe the thought alone seemed nearly impossible yet he was working hard to achieve his goal the problem wasn't just that the idea was incredibly challenging but also that his physical condition was hindering his Pro ress however he considered his problem to be small and trivial he believed that his body did not hinder his work at all you would be surprised to learn that the small problem Kent referred to

was his blindness Kent was blind he knew that if he used strong and negative words he would give more power to his problem which would then control his entire life therefore he decided to carefully choose his words by controlling his words he was managing the power of His blindness Kent loved his work at Nasa despite being blind he successfully earned a doctoral degree in physics this was no small feat for someone with such determination succeeding in the NASA project was not impossible imagine if you start considering even the biggest problems as minor think about without

the power you would possess if you don't allow problems to disrupt your success think about how much your life would change how are you how often do you hear the question how are you each day probably quite often we often Overlook the importance of this question because we've answered it so many times that it has become a habit but are you aware of the effect it can have on you probably not answering this question frequently is almost like talking to yourself which helps direct your day so ask yourself now how are you your response could

be positive negative or somewhere in between it's best if your response leans towards the positive side even if you're not feeling well just saying you're fine can actually start making you feel better this story is a perfect perfect example Sally often felt very tired whenever someone in the office asked her how are you she always told the truth that she was feeling very tired doing this reinforced her belief that she truly was tired as the day progressed with this attitude she would feel increasingly tired it might even happen that she would start nodding off at

her desk and potentially fall off her chair now think about the person in the office who asked her how she was do you think hearing Sally's tired response made him feel positive no hearing such a weary answer probably made him feel tired as well by responding this way Sally was not only diminishing her own energy but also the energy of those around her when Sally got home she felt very weak and tired she sat down in her favorite chair to relax and started checking her lottery ticket she was astonished to find out that she had

won $10 million remember how tired Sally was but now she was also very happy she started dancing around and began calling her friends and family to share the good news she probably didn't sleep all night because of the excitement so where did Sally find the energy to celebrate despite her fatigue the secret lies in her mental state when she kept telling everyone she was tired she focused all day on that energy which only made things worse if she had focused her energy on something positive her entire day would have been filled with energy and turned

out amazing remember whatever you say or think your body is listening so choose your words and thoughts wisely part three Heaven helps those who act associate with positive people in the world there are two types of people those filled with negativity and toxicity and those brimming with positivity who nurture others the latter are the kind who constantly encourage you to push forward these individuals always remain positive and believe that you can achieve your goals you should strive to surround yourself with such positive people on the other hand toxic individuals always think negatively and are prone

to complaining they drain your positive energy and spoil your mood it's best to avoid the company of such people consider Smokey a good friend who worked in the sales department of a funeral home Ministry for 45 years when we hear about funerals or Memorial Services we might assume that being surrounded by death might make someone negative however the truth about Smokey was quite the opposite his attitude was incredibly positive he believed that people are like sponges absorbing everything around them whatever they hear starts to impact them he also believed that if we are around negative

people we eventually become negative too although he was always surrounded by deceased bodies he made it a point to steer clear of negative people he believed that to remain positive we must wisely choose our friends and family members especially those we spend most of our time with confront your fears and grow sometimes when we are close to achieving our dreams we encounter obstacles that frighten us often these problems may be small but they seem larger due to our fears if you want to be successful you must be prepared to do things that scare you fear

is a part of the process and you cannot achieve your dreams without stepping out of your comfort zone when you want to try something new and feel scared think carefully about the situation try to understand the root of your fear so you can control it always remember if there's something you genuinely want to do but are avoiding it just because of fear you stand to lose a lot you might feel relieved for a moment but your self-respect and growth as a human being will greatly diminish do not let your fear dominate have the courage to

stand up and move forward let's hear the story of a woman who knew how to control her fear was a high school teacher for 32 years her dream was to work in the entertainment field but she never took action because of her fear she chose teaching as it seemed a safe profession even while teaching her dream of Performing was alive in her heart she kept writing and singing songs dreaming of becoming a performer one day when the summer season began one day she decided she had to pursue her dream and quit her job she was

determined to make a mark in show business but then reality struck she had left her job and was terrified of taking the first step toward her dream Doty gave into to her fear and went back to teaching however her dream was not dead she loved music deeply 6 months later she retired and decided to face her fear of rejection despite being in her 50s she successfully ran her musical show at the age of 60 she released her first music album she also performed in bars and clubs in New York City Dy felt very proud of

her career she was very happy even in her old age she lived her life fully and happily because she had the courage to turn her dream into reality [Music] get out there and fail earlier we discussed the importance of challenging ourselves to grow sometimes trying something new can be frightening but regardless of the outcome we need to be brave yes we will fail as most people who have tried before us have but this does not mean that we should not try or stop moving forward if there is a dream we TR truly want to achieve

we must attempt it once twice even a 100 times until we succeed let's learn about Jack and Mark's story they co-authored a book and wanted to publish it aiming to complete the process within 3 months they sent the book to a publisher who rejected it they tried again but received another no they faced rejection 33 times in total anyone else might have given up but they persisted finally they sent their book to another publisher who accepted it right away their goal was to achieve this in 3 months but it took them 3 years however this

does not change the fact that they persisted until they succeeded ultimately they were successful and that's what really matters the book they published became so famous that you can find it in any book store it is part of the popular series Chicken Soup for the Soul the authors are Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen if they had not continuously tried and given up halfway they would never have been successful therefore do not count how many times you fail and certainly do not consider it as a final result remember rejection does not define our future but

our attitude certainly does conclusion now that you have learned about the importance of a positive attitude it's time to apply this knowledge in your life in part one you understood the role of your mind once you set your thoughts on positive things you begin to attract every positive aspect into your life in part two you learned how adopting positive language can lead lead to positive outcomes even a simple response to how are you can make or break your day part three taught you how you can be positive and get things done you learned the importance
