Happy Tuesday everyone!
Today is short and simple.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside many successful people. One thing I’ve learned is that it’s impossible to reach your goals…… if your attitude isn’t in the right place.
Flat out, you can’t lead, inspire, or create positive outcomes without a positive mindset. Life is full of both positives and negatives—and you’ll find what you focus on. Your attitude acts like a magnet, attracting what it seeks.
Of course, we all have off days, but I’ve collected a few reminders that help me maintain a positive attitude, more often than not. Maybe they’ll help you too:
“I cannot accomplish anything if I’m in a bad mood.” When I’m in a bad mood, I make bad decisions. It’s better to take a break than to try and grid through it.
“If this is the worst thing to happen today, we’re doing pretty good.” Most problems won’t matter in a week, let alone a year. Keep things in perspective.
“If I keep doing the right things, I can’t lose in the long run.” Results aren’t always immediate, but consistency leads to success.
“Nobody has it all figured out, and I’m no different.” Each day brings new challenges. Don’t expect yourself to know everything.
“I am allowed to change.” It’s okay to outgrow interests and try new things. Growth means change.
“Pressure means someone is counting on me.” Being relied on is an honor—embrace the challenge.
“Discomfort means I’m learning.” New experiences are hard at first, but they lead to growth.
“I always have a choice: accept the situation or change it.” Focus your energy where you can make a difference.
“The only way to learn is to start pedaling.” You can read about riding a bike, but you won’t learn until you get on and try.
"A bad moment doesn’t have to become a bad day." One setback doesn’t define your entire day—how you respond does. Shake off the negativity, refocus, and keep moving forward."
|With that, I hope your day is filled with positivity and purpose. Remember, someone out there is counting on your energy and kindness—you have the power to make a difference just by being yourself. And if all you take from today’s newsletter is the quick list above, know that your influence makes the world a little brighter. Thanks for being part of this journey... see you next week!
