ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING – PERSONAL LEADERSHIP

This course is about understanding that attitude is a habit of thought. Who you are is a function of specific choices that you make. Who you are is not determined by how you look, where you live, or who your parents are. You are where you are and what you are because of the dominating thoughts that occupy your mind. It might help to think of your mind as computer software. If your software or mind is full of doubts, fear, and “can’t do”, then no matter how hard you try, you are only going to produce a product or a life that replicates these negative beliefs. It is up to you to take the steps to change your thoughts and attitude. You do not have to be controlled by the words you may have heard as a child, or by the words you continue to say to yourself. What you think about becomes the words you speak, and the words you speak become the actions you take, and the actions you take determine your life!
