Your Altitude is Determined by Your Attitude

By Hal Neff


"Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude" - Zig Ziglar. It isn't exactly how intelligent you are in life that will determine your success. There are many intelligent people who aren't successful in life. However ,But if you would like to attain new heights of accomplishment in life, you will be forced to look at your attitude first. It is really the number one element for succeeding in life. How high you go in life will be decided mostly by your attitude.

This is a difficult truism for many individuals to accept since our society is generally one of blamers. People in our modern society want to blame the environment, their own parents, employers, authorities and everyone but themselves for where they are in life. Yet the capacity to change that is totally within the power of every single person.

In life, it is only an optimistic approach that will help you move forward while remaining in a pessimistic mindset will keep you bound and stagnant. Having a positive mindset will mean that you are excited about life and what it provides. This means that even when things do not go your way, you will find good in the situation.

For many people a absence of money could be a huge challenge. If that's the case, then you must evaluate your thinking and relationship to money. How do you view it or the lack of it? How do you view the people around you who have money? Do you see yourself resenting that truth that they have money and you do not?

That's known as belief system and it works in your subconscious mind preventing you from attaining what you really desire in life. Many people justify this belief system and hang on to it, thereby perpetuating the outside reality and retaining them from the stuff that they really want. Yes, it's much easier to stay angered by other people who have what you do not, yet that resentment belief system will never change your situation.

The starting point to gaining a fresh altitude in your life is to begin to improve your attitude towards that circumstances in your life that you do not like. Begin to view them as possibilities to change. Viewing something as an option will initiate that growing positive mindset. No one is negative about opportunity as that is something positive for most people. So begin to see the complicated things in your life as opportunities for something great to happen to you.

Start today and start focusing on changing your attitudes in life. By viewing situations as positive opportunities you can work in harmony with the universe to start to view positive change in your life. Make the decision today that you'll not be a blamer but that you will take personal responsibility in your life so to begin to affect the changes needed that will help you gain new altitude in life. Yes, your altitude is determined by your own attitude.
