Attitudes are Contagious!

by Michaeline on June 27, 2009

Remember the children’s story “The Little Engine That Could”? Be that engine… If you focus on the good stuff the quality of your personal and professional life will improve.

Here are some more tips from Wolf J. Rinke found in his book Make It a Winning Life: Success Strategies for Life, Love and Business (Achievement Publishers 1992).

Commit to:
• Fake it until I make it.
• Give more of what I want.
• Accept that how I feel is my choice.
• Treat mistakes as exceptions and success as the rule.
• Live by “if it’s to be, it’s up to me”.

These are just some of the things suggested to achieve a positive attitude. Of course, I picked the ones that struck a chord with me…join me in the commitment to a contagious positive attitude.

Believe In Your Greatness

by Michaeline on June 23, 2009

I recently attended a breakout session at a conference entitled “Positive Attitude: The Key to Success in Nutrition and Dietetics”. Wolf J. Rinke presented the session. One of his success action steps is: Whenever anyone asks “How are you?” Answer “GREAT!”

He suggests that you do this with enough enthusiasm to convince yourself and others that you really mean it. As with any habit, developing the attitude of feeling great will take 21 days.

I have actually been practicing this step and the reaction that I am getting has been interesting. Actually, most people are surprised when I respond “GREAT!”

So surprise yourself and others… YOU ARE GREAT!
