Attitude determines your altitude

Attitudes gets formed from experience. They are formed over the years either from observation or from experience. They can be learned in a variety of ways. Even a simple advertisement could influence you and may even have a change on your thoughts about a particular product. This kind of attitude formation is known as classical conditioning. Another kind of conditioning is the Operant Conditioning where the attitude develops from other people’s thinking. Sometimes people around us could make an impact on our behavior and change ourselves. And finally attitudes could be developed by observing people around us. A simple example of this kind of attitude development is, kids trying to be what their parents are. This is just observation and imitation, that develops into an attitude later.

Attitude does influence ones behavior. Studies have shown that people behave according to their attitude under certain conditions. Condition like when expecting a favorable outcome, due to personal experience are some of the examples. Attitudes could be changed. Attitudes do impact our behavior, but they are not imposed on stone within us. They could be changed for betterment.

Attitudes could be changed in two ways. Either they get motivated or they get influenced. In both the ways they do think about the messages that they have observed and this could mark a difference in their way of thinking.

Scenarios in life could be made good or worse, based on ones attitude to the situation. Even if you are in a very bad situation, and you hold a positive attitude, you may come out, however even if you are in a moderate situation and you hold a negative attitude, you could worsen the situation and create discomfort not only for you, but for people around you.

To begin to live with a clearer perspective is to breathe new life into existence. To really feel and appreciate the joys of life is to love your life and the essential things that makes life worth living. It is a prerequisite of a wonderful life, since the perfect life doesn’t exist as we are not perfect people. We change and things change.

Going out of your way to please others can leave a huge hole in the relationship with yourself. It is important to put your needs first to be able to have a full and fulfilling life. The outcome of any event is evidence that we are cocreators of our every experience. We can decide to make the most of situations and we find that we become better at creating positive experiences and relationships.

The life we all dream about is the same especially as we don’t like problems or trials and tribulations. However, we face these things to help us and enable us to reconnect with ourselves and create a worthwhile solution that makes us grow in perspective and personality.

We are the best example of the sum of our experiences. We gain wisdom and insight into bigger things in life and it shapes and mould’s us to be better people. Life in itself is the becoming of living. We are life force in a human body. We can align our truth to our life purpose.

Strategy is often the onset of the goals we have close to our hearts. Once we have a plan, we cannot fail, because every stepping stone is bringing us closer to our goals. Like two adventurous people in the same land who want to get to the same destination, but take two different paths.

Along the paths of life will be excitement and wonder. Also along the path will be tragedy and sorrow. Understanding this liberates the mind from assumptions that things can be constant. Life is not a constant. Miracles happen when we least expect it. It is throughout the span of life that those moments of surprise stand out as we journey towards the unknown.

There are no two days that are the same. We see and feel things in a different light often characterised by our moods. Moods differ every day and we have to really feel into our nature to make the most of our experiences. The moment purpose meets with destiny is the moment our lives are set on an undaunted path to reach our life goals.
