Positive attitudes
release a power to achieve that will astound you, while negative attitudes
severely hamper our becoming the people we are capable of
becoming.
It become the central
task of anyone interested in actualizing their enormous potential to become
involved in the process of attitudinal transformation.
Attitudinal
transformation takes time, effort and determination but it can be done.
Don't expect perfection, just progress. It took a long time to develop
negative attitudes and it will take time to transform them. It is also
important not to concentrate on more than one or two negative attitudes at
once. If you overload your agenda for change you run the risk of becoming
discouraged and giving up.
Once you have
identified the negative attitude you wish to transform, commit yourself to
the process of becoming conscious of that attitude cropping up throughout
the day. You will be surprised at how quickly you will become aware of your
target attitude. When you are focussed on the attitude, visualize it
leaving your body and flying off into the great beyond.
Now replace it with a
positive attitude and give yourself the suggestion that from now on this
will be your dominant thought pattern. Whenever your old negative attitude
creeps back into your mind engage this process of thought replacement. Soon
the new attitude will become dominant and you will find yourself enjoying
its positive power in your life.
Be gentle with
yourself when you fall back into the old pattern of thinking. Believe that
the change you desire will come more frequently and it will. It might help
to remember that human beings use between 2 and ten percent of their mind's
potential so you have a huge reservoir of unused potential to help you over
any periods of discouragement.
Don't forget to
continue to use humour to keep your spirits up and put the entire process
in perspective. HUMOUR MAKES GOOD THINGS HAPPEN.
