Dr. Victor Frankel
The importance of attitude: (From Man’s Search for Meaning)
- Everything can be taken from man but one thing - the last of human freedoms to choose one’s attitude… in the final analysis it becomes clear that the result of what a person becomes is the result of an inner decision – your decision determines your attitude – your window to the world
Hugh Downs
A happy person is one with a certain set of attitudes not circumstances – a frame of mind
The frame of your mind can become an asset in your life
It determines whether I am happy or not
Just your attitude affects your life
If you are going through a difficult period, the most important thing you need are people around you with a good attitude
Our attitude has to become the thermostat for our houses
When people come in with negativity, you are a thermostat and you set the atmosphere for your environment
A positive attitude will draw other positive experiences into your life
Complaining nails you to your problems and makes you find other things to complain about
People with an attitude of gratitude always find something else for which to be thankful
Attitude is a thermostat for your household
It’s not always what you are eating – it’s what’s eating you
I am the thermostat for others in reach of my life
My attitude will ultimately determine my outcome
It will determine what I attract and repel
I have the ability to set the thermostat for the attitudes in my atmosphere
Your attitude will bless your whole atmosphere and determine whether or not people want to be around you
Everytime you walk into a situation in your home, a fire gets started with an attitude. You have two buckets – one is gasoline and the other is water
I can start a bigger fire with the gasoline of my anger
I can smother the fire with the water and put out the fire
I determine which is thrown with my attitude – no one determines it but me
I can’t control what happens to me, but I can control how I respond
