The Power of Attitude

How is your Attitude? Do you ever realize that the attitude you portray is the way people depict the person you are. Do you you wear a snarl on your face at all times because you do not want people to talk to you or do you do it because you are actually scared for people to converse with you? or whatever the attitude might be for that day.

Do you realize that wearing a snarl on your face actually makes people think that is truly the person you are on the inside and when in actuality that is not who you are. You are actually a very kind gentle spirit.

The one I admit I do sometimes lately because I do not want to be hurt and it totally bombs on me every time because I am trying to be someone I am not is showing the attitude of I am not going to take your crap or you can shove it attitude? For people who truly know me and know my heart that this is not who I am but also know the reasons why this attitude comes out sometimes. When I portray that attitude though that may make people think that I am not a very nice person.

Do we really want to portray an attitude that is not us? What is wrong with showing a positive attitude everyday even if you do not feel like it? At least people will know even though he or she is having a bad day at least they are trying to have a positive outlook. When your attitude stinks your life is going to portray that. So why not try having an attitude that is positive and see where it leads you.

I subscribe to Mr. Positive and I received a wonderful video called The Power of Attitude. Please see the link below and enjoy the video.

Love to me is defined as speaking from your soul. When you love make sure you show true love and it comes from the heart. Never hide your feelings when it comes to love. Love hard and never be shallow when it comes to love. When people love you, love them back. Never take love for granted. Show people love even when they are not showing love back to you. Do not fake love. Love speaks from the heart and soul. When you say I love you mean I love you. Never say I love you when you do not mean it. Never lead someone on when you truly do not love them. If you can not love the right way maybe you should fall in love your self first because you can not love anybody else if you can not love who you are first. Love comes from inside the soul. Love is such a strong and passionate word. When you show love people are truly going to know you mean it when you exude it naturally without having to try so hard. So love with all your heart and never let people take away your love.

Love

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

For other uses, see Love (disambiguation).

Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection^[1] and attachment. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. The word love is both a verb and a noun. This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.

As an abstract concept, love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of tenderly caring for another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual emotional closeness of familial and platonic love^[2] to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love.^[3] Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.

Do Not Blame

Have you ever wanted to just continue to blame others for what has happened to you in your past? Sometimes when things happen it may be others fault but is it fair to continue to blame others when they had nothing to do with your past? Absolutely not. It tends to make you feel better when you can a blame a person who had nothing to do with anything but they become your whipping board because you feel you have to blame someone. When you feel like that this is when you need evaluate what is and has gone on in your life. Create a checklist for yourself so you can better yourself and get through the past instead of hanging on to it and blaming others. Trust me if you want to continue to blame others for your past it is only hurting that person you are blaming and it is not setting you free from your past so you can continue to move forward. So instead of blaming others look into yourself first and change with in before you want to blame and point fingers.

Never Stop Caring

Sometimes you may feel you care so much about someone or something and no one else feels the same. Never stop caring if someone does not care like you do. We are all created differently and if you feel you are put on this earth to care then continue to do so. Do not let someone cloud your thought or change your heart. Continue to work through issues that arise but never stop caring and never quit being who you are. Like in my last post there may be changes that arise. Look at those changes and see where it might change your life but if you feel in your heart that no change needs to be made especially when you are truly a caring person do not listen to others listen to yourself. There are people in this world that are going to try and bring you down or tell you that you care about useless things. Let those words roll off your shoulders because they are just words and do not stop caring. Love that person even more and care for that person even more because they may be crying out for help and they just do not know how to ask. Never stop caring because when you do stop caring that is when your soul takes a huge hit and your heart hardens. As people we care in a unique and individual way. Care with your heart and soul and mean it. If you are caring for the wrong reasons just to earn brownie points or just to kiss up that is not caring with your heart. If you get hurt really bad still try and let go and care. When you truly care it will make your heart feel good and caring makes a difference in this world.

Change

We seem to all hate change. Change starts from the inside. Sometimes when change is happening in your life and you see the change happening it is like looking at an open book right in front of your face and it can either be in my opinion depressing,disheartening, or a rush. It is however you want to perceive it or how you want to adjust to change. Change has been happening all around in my life and I know that it is has been a little scary for me but I have decided to sit back and go with the changes that are happening and go with them and see where it takes me. I have been fighting the changes because sometimes it is extremely hard to step outside the box or it is also soothing to stay in that comfort zone. In this day and time we do not have time to constantly worry and think if we have made the correct decision or not or sit here and fight with our feelings because we do see change happening in our life. In my opinion we need to go with the flow and when change happens in your life tackle it with a positive outlook and do not look at it as a negative aspect in your life. Even when you have been hurt ten billion times whatever it may be remember that change is happening for a reason. When things happen in your life they do happen for a reason. I know sometimes I want to fight with that reason instead of going with it knowing that all things happen in a timely fashion and for a reason. So if you are starting to see change in your life remember that change starts from within and to go with the change and see where it leads you. You never know it could lead down a path that could be the most adventurous path you have ever been on.

Paying Attention To Detail

Do you think it is important to pay attention to detail? I never thought it was until the past several months where in my life I have learned it is extremely important to pay attention to detail.

Definition of detail according to Webster online dictionary is:

1: extended treatment of or attention to particular items2: a part of a whole: as a: a small and subordinate part : particular ; also : a reproduction of such a part of a work of art b: a part considered or requiring to be considered separately from the whole c: the small elements that collectively constitute a work of art d: the small elements of a photographic image corresponding to those of the subject 3 a: selection of a person or group for a particular task (as in military service) b (1): the person or group selected (2): the task to be performed

Paying attention to detail is highly important in everyday life. If you do not pay attention to detail you might just miss something that is very important like making sure your car door is shut so you do not have a drained battery by morning. It is just the little details in life that make a huge difference and create the big picture. If the smallest details are forgotten then your picture can not be completed.

So remember when you do something give it your best and make sure all details are in line and not missed.

Let It Go

Do you ever just keep holding on to stuff in your mind that may just keep you down or you feel like you just can not let go? Please read the writings below by T.D. Jakes and remember to let it go!

Let it go...by T. D. Jakes

There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this!
When people can walk away from you: let them walk.
I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you,
loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you,
staying attached to you.
I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you,
you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person,
it just means that their part in the story is over.
And you've got to know when people's
part in your story is over so that you
don't keep trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over.
Let me tell you something.
I've got the gift of good-bye.
It's the tenth spiritual gift,
I believe in good-bye.
It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful,
and I know whatever God means for me to have
He'll give it to me.
And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it.
Stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something
that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life,
then you need to ..LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains .
LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth...
LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you ...
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge ..
LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction .
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or
talents ..
LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude...
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...
LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new
level in Him...
LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship....
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help
themselves..
LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed ...
LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling
yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to...
LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past.
Forget the former things.
GOD is doing a new thing for 2009 !!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then
LET IT GO!!!

New Years Resolution

Each year we promise ourselves that we are going to reach our goals that we set for ourselves by making a New Years Resolution. I have listed the meaning of New Years Resolution from Wikipedia:

A New Year's resolution is a commitment that an individual makes to a project or the reforming of a habit, often a lifestyle change that is generally interpreted as advantageous. The name comes from the fact that these commitments normally go into effect on New Year's Day and remain until fulfilled or abandoned. More socio-centric examples include resolutions to donate to the poor more often, to become more assertive, or to become more economically or environmentally responsible. People may act similarly during the Christian fasting period of Lent, though the motive behind this holiday is more of sacrifice than of responsibility. The new year resolution is one example of the rolling forecast-method of planning. According to this method, plans are established at regular short or medium-term time intervals, when only a rough long-term plan exists.

Have you ever made a promise or resolution to yourself and you never stuck with it. I know I sure have. When we make goals to ourselves we should stick to them and tackle the obstacles that get in our way in order to reach our goals.

So if you have made a resolution to yourself make sure you conquer it this year and do the best that you can to achieve your goal. Do not give up. Keep fighting and moving forward.
