What's Your Attitude?

We all have talents and abilities that are valuable gifts.  These gifts may seem invisible to you but they are there. Of that, I am convinced!

Shifting Inside Out is designed to assist you in uncovering those attributes through mindfulness, encouragement and guidance.

We begin this process in the most effective starting place: with our attitude.  If you are like me, you have had plenty of people tell you about your attitude.  Whether good or bad, out attitude impacts every area of our lives.  We can have both, good and bad on the same day or even in the same minute
         
      "Attitude is the librarian of your past,
        The speaker of your present,
        The predictor of your future"  - Jimmy Evans

"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal.
Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude" - Thomas Jefferson

Since attitude seems to be so important, why is it so misunderstood?  I hear people tell others to fix their attitude,  but what does that mean?  It's not something I can touch, how can I fix it?

Let's begin by defining attitude.  That will be helpful.

                                                Attitude is simply our thoughts and beliefs.  

 That's it!  I can prove it. When I work with students and ask them, "What's your attitude about math?" They don't even need to answer.  I can see it on their faces.  I can see what they are thinking and believing about math.

So when I ask you what your attitude is about your workplace, your family life, your weight, your body, your health or your financial situation,  I guessing I would see it in your faces.

Here are three key facts about your attitude:
1.  We choose our attitude
2.  Attitudes are not caused by people or circumstances
3.  We can change our attitude


This is part of living with the lights on.  Looking inside the "mess"  to see what we are thinking.  In other words, see what our attitude is.

Until next time, "What are you noticing about your attitude?"

Vitamin D - The Divine

Vitamin D - The Divine Vitamin -D The Divine.   This is a Vitamin you don't take.   It is one you receive.                  Because the Divine is the source of power behind all powers, the chemistry created when we experience the Divine supersedes all known laws of the body.                   There's no question that faith plays a paramount role in life with The Divine. Yet in order to "have faith," we must have something else first. First we must learn to   trust              The nature of God is unchanging; The Divine wants only what is good for us.   It is true even if we are not doing well. It doesn’t depend on our capacity to do something, it’s really about His ability to do something for us. By trusting Him, we get a confidence from...

Vitamin T-3 Three Things You Are Thankful For Yesterday we talked about straightening up your brain like you would a room that you want to keep clean and organized If you need to bring in new thoughts to practice, then say goodbye to the thoughts you have been thinking.   One of the best ways to do this is by taking Vitamin T-3 When we harness our thoughts by choosing to focus on three things we are thankful for, several things happen in our brain and body.

Your Future is Your Property Your future is your property and it is built one thought at a time.   How does it feel when you read this?   We are quickly approaching the beginning of a new year and we can create a year like no other for ourselves.   Here are a few steps I recommend for creating your future: Think about what you are thinking.  How are you thinking about you?  If your daughter or son had a friend that spoke to them like you speak to yourself, would you think they were a good friend? It is important to understand where we are with our thinking. Just like using GPS, we need to know where our starting point is.  Now that you have your beginning location, think about your destination.  It is your thoughts that will get you there.  If you want to lose some weight or organize your home or build your relationships, the way you think is the way to get there.  Speaking of The Way, how does HE s...
