Positive Mental Attitude = Success

By
Title Insurance with AmeriTitle

No matter what is happening in your work or family life, a positive mental attitude can be the catalyst for success.  As an industry we've gone through an enormous amount of change in the last two... no three... actually four years.  There are more adjustments, struggles, successes, and celebration in our future. As we all know the only thing that is constant in our lives is change. 

Embracing these changes and having control over our mental attitude is the best thing we can all do as individuals.  No matter what each day brings me I will greet it with a smile.  I pledge to interact with my family, my co-workers, my competitors, and my clients with love in my heart and a genuine desire to serve. 

An excerpt of some very eloquent words about Mental Attitude from Elbert Hubbard ~

Good health! Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every hand-clasp.

Do not fear being misunderstood; and never waste a moment thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your own mind what you would like to do, and then without violence of direction you will move straight to the goal.

Keep your mind on the great and splendid thing you would like to do; and then, as the days go gliding by, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the elements that it needs. Picture in your mind the able, earnest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought that you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual you so admire.

Very nice... I read the books and have carried this excerpt in one form or another with me for over 30 years...

Our time in human form is too short to be wasted on things that don’t serve us, things that continually present challenges or things that prevent one from celebrating their passions, love, beauty and dreams. Find your path of heart, even if you are the only one walking it and live your life fully!

There are many paths in our life and we are free to chose any. No path leads anywhere! [It is the journey that counts, not the destination.] There is no final destination to reach. Some paths have "hearts," others don't. We must always chose a "path with heart".

“For me there is only the traveling on paths that have heart, on any path that may have heart. There I travel, and the only worthwhile challenge is to traverse its full length. And there I travel looking, looking, breathlessly.” ~ Don Juan (Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge, by Carlos Castaneda)

Well put Rosi.  Your attitude absolutely effects everything.  People are drawn to like minded individuals.  Even when I am down, if I force myself to be positive and energetic I will naturally be surrounded by positive and energetic people, which makes me happy and positive and energetic!  Kind of a wonderful circle!
