THE TRUE VALUE OF A POSITIVE ATTITUDE

The value of a positive attitude cannot be emphasized strongly enough . It keeps you going when you should be empty and stationary. It gives you that extra push needed when times are tough and the going even tougher.

A positive attitude can be the difference between utter failure and exponential success. When you think about it, it is clear why this is the case.

 WHY IS POSITIVE ATTITUDE SO IMPORTANT?

Anyone who has embarked on a journey to a successful life, will agree that success does not come easily. It takes a lot of sweat, tears and blood.
You need a strong foundation, a compelling motivation, persistence and the list goes on. What we can agree on is that success is not a walk in the park.

 Along the way, you are going to face challenges of varying degrees of difficulty. Any one of these can easily trip you up. 
Obviously, if success is important to you, you will need to find a way around this in order to proceed. This is where a positive attitude can come to your rescue. 

 HOW CAN A POSITIVE ATTITUDE RESCUE YOU?

 You see, the way we look at a situation differs. We may look at the same incident and come away with vastly different opinions and outlooks. This is informed by our state of mind.

 In other words, when we look at a situation, we are actually looking at ourselves. The goings on around us serves to reveal us to ourselves. So, it is about us rather than what goes on around us.

 Now, with a positive attitude,every difficulty encountered will be easily overcome because we will looking at it with rose tinted glasses. And what would stop many a man will seem trivial indeed.
With a positive attitude, we will go through obstacles after obstacles with consummate ease .
CONCLUSION

 Even though a positive attitude will not shield us from all manner of difficulties and challenges, it will equip us to proceed confidently. 
To recap,when times are tough, you do need that extra armour. And a positive attitude is that little extra albeit a very powerful one.

WHAT SOCIAL MEDIA REALLY STANDS FOR

Image
This is a follow up article on another one about social media which briefly explained why this phenomenon is so popular. That article can be accessed on my blog. This popularity is well deserved but there are dangers lurking about. This is what this article will address. We are going to shine some light on those dangers with the hope that by the end of this article we would have a firm grasp of what they are and how they came to be. REAL AND MORTAL DANGER I’m going to be blunt and straightforward here, social media is a frighteningly treacherous environment. I know this sounds rather close-minded and somewhat final. I can already hear someone sighing and muttering a few harsh words. But this is serious and there’s no point in beating about the bush, is there? There are instances where terrible things have been done to people who were lured into dropping their guard. Some have lost their lives while others are left to pick up the pieces, so to speak. I am not going to ov

YOU HAVE MORE TIME THAN YOU THINK OR DO YOU?

Do anyone of us have a more valuable entity than time? I call it an entity for want of a better term. What do you call time, anyway? This is a rhetorical question, I know. But it is still one worth asking nonetheless since we tend to take it for granted. This is especially the case when we are young, isn’t? Ah, the joys of youth. But guess what? Before you know it, all that seemingly eternal time is gone. And you are left asking yourself “Where did the time go?” I am not going to go into detail regarding time from a quantum physics perspective or all that mumbo-jumbo business. Simply because I neither have the capacity nor the inclination to do so. Frankly, this subject is too technical for my liking. Besides I do not wish to risk boring you into a stupor. But if you are interested, there are numerous tomes written about this topic. A basic search should quantify what I am saying here. How we Waste Time Let us not beat around the bush. Our time on this earth is very l

THE MAGIC OF SURRENDER

Can I ask that you please take a few minutes to read and really think about what you are about to read. What I am going to share with you is one of the most profound lessons I have learnt. I am talking truly powerful lessons or at least one of them. So, without wasting too much of your time, let’s begin… THE CONTROL MYTH We, as humans in general, have an almost compulsive need to have control. We attempt to control everything. If we had our way, we would control how and when the sun rises or sets, how rain falls, you get my drift. To be certain, the fact that we cannot control some of these things drives us up the wall. But the irony here is that we actually do not have as much control as we think. When you think about it, a lot of what we think is under our control is actually not. I know that’s a bit sobering, isn’t it?   For example: When driving your car, do you feel that it’s under your control? If you answered “No”, I would be seriously concerned. So, yo
