Attitude

Building
❖ A positive attitude brings light and life
into your life, like a shining sun on a
beautiful day.
❖ Building a positive attitude is like
holding a powerful torch that lights
your life.
❖ People are often too focused on their problems,
difficulties and daily life. They focus on the
problems, instead of on the solution, and the more
they do so, the more problems well up, because
what you focus on grows.
❖ It is so tempting and easy to immerse in self pity,
believe that everyone is against you, and that life
is difficult. This attitude will keep away happiness
and success.
