What Does a Bad Attitude and a Flat Tire Have in Common?

"A bad attitude is like a flat tire.

If you don't change it,

you'll never go any where."

Buz Moren, Guidepost Reader

    

As I see it. . . . . . . .

What does a bad attitude and a flat tire have in common? 

Attempting to drive on a flat tire is unsafe and can cause an accident.  Having a bad attitude is unhealthy for our career and can derail our success journey.  

Driving on a flat tire creates a very unstable and bumpy ride. A bad attitude can make a person success journey very unstable and create a lot of wasted energy and effort showing very little results.   

If we're driving in our car and we get a flat tire we have to stop and change the tire before we able to resume our journey.  

With a bad attitude we have choices we can maintain a bad attitude and in time it will completely bring our success journey to a complete standstill.   

Or we have can elect to momentary stop access our success journey and get our hands dirty and change a bad attitude. No one really likes to get out of their car and fix a flat tire but if the want to continue their trip they have to change the tire.  

For us to move forward we have to be willing to address our attitude to make sure it's harmony with our goals and is moving us in the rights direction. We have to be willing to adjust our attitude in order for it to provide the smoothest journey possible. 

What does a flat tire and a bad attitude have in common is that both will provide a bumpy ride downhill.

This reminds me of the book, "The Power of Positive Thinking".  I've been saying for years that putting out good vibes brings people and things your way.  Self-doubt and negativity are really big blockades to success.

This one is just plain common sense. But then, common sense is not always common. Thanks, Lou.
