Your attitude is your outlook on life!

As a life and business coach, I would describe attitude as the manner, disposition, feeling, position, etc., with regard to a person or thing. It is believed to be a tendency or orientation of the mind. In simple words of a mindset coach, attitude is defined as a way of looking at or viewing life. This is why attitude has been described as the "control center" of your life. Your attitude is a decision or a choice that you take, and becomes a learned behavior.

Attitude is both mental and physical.

It’s how you see and interpret the world around you. And it's something that you have complete control over. You rarely can control what happens to you, but you can always control your attitude. You can choose to let things get you down, or you can choose to stay positive and see the good in every situation. So, who's in charge of your attitude? You are!

You're the only one who can decide how you're going to react to what life throws your way. It's up to you to choose the attitude that can take you closer to your dream. One that will help you grow, stay positive and focused on your goals, no matter what you encounter in life.

Our ability to be responsible for our choices, attitude and effort not only is good for us as individuals, but it’s also critical for everyone around us. When we model ownership of our efforts and their outcomes, that accountability spreads and you feel the tide lifting all boats.

Here are a few tips for possessing your attitude:

• Be aware of your thoughts: Its important to pay attention to the things you tell yourself daily. Are they positive or negative? If they're negative, start working on changing them to positive ones. You will realise, it can make or break your day!
• Be mindful of your words: Choose your words carefully and be mindful of how they might affect others. You can never be in other person’s shoes so you do not know what he or she is going through in life. Words do have power, use them wisely.
• Be responsible with your actions: Every action you take should be done with a positive purpose. Think about what you're trying to accomplish and make sure your actions are in line with that. Remember the cause-and-effect theory!
• Be patient: Attitude adjustments don't happen overnight. Keep perspective - it takes time and effort to change the way you think and feel. Maybe you do it consciously first and then it becomes who you are. And it's worth it!
• Be persistent: Once you've decided to own your attitude, stick with it. As they say, it is not always easy, but it will be worth it in the end.

I understand, life can be a series of unpredictable events, some happy and some not-so-happy, a labyrinth of highs and lows. But if we understand the power of attitude and the power that it is in our control to choose it, we can transform challenges into opportunities, setbacks into stepping stones and ordinary moments into extraordinary memories.

Thia impacts our relationships to an extent we cannot even fathom. Whether it is personal or professional, it ripples through each interaction we have.
