Your Attitude Always Determines Your Altitude

Having a Positive Attitude makes it possible for you to excel to a higher Altitude.


“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.” –Zig Ziglar
It is important to know that your attitude will always determine your altitude, whether it is in business or in life.  Also realize that it is impossible to change someone else’s attitude for them.    Our attitudes come from making choice decisions.
Your Attitude Determines Your Altitude
“Our life is what our thoughts make it”. –Marcus Aurelius
“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.” –Winston Churchill
“Yes, if we think happy thoughts, we will be happy.   If we think miserable thoughts, we will be miserable. If we think fear thoughts, we will be fearful. If we think sickly thoughts we probably will be ill. If we think failure, we will certainly fail. If we wallow in self-pity, everyone will want to shun us and avoid us”. –Dale Carnegie
Reality can be changed dramatically by a single thought.  Our mental attitude, which is the power which we hold in our heads can be set to Positive or Negative.

A Positive Mental Attitude in Leadership:

When it comes to  leadership, it’s more likely  that you are what you think.  It’s important to realize that  outside influences don’t usually determine your happiness or success.  It’s how we react to those influences – good or bad which determine our happiness or success.   We have the ability to change how we react to any outside forces?
Make sure that how you react to any situation is a conscious priority; which means practice daily.
1.  Humor is vital.
When things don’t seem to be going your way, learn to keep everything in perspective and relax. Laugh out loud or just throw up your hands with a smile on your face.
2.  Having positive self-confident feelings will  help you achieve more.
People are drawn to others who have an upbeat outlook, who have a can-do attitude. They will also make others want to be associated with you.  Why?  Because people are drawn to others who have an upbeat outlook and possess a can-do attitude.
Constant complainers will Never collect an easy following.

What is the Purpose of Self Motivation?

The purpose of self motivation is to help a person to assess his or her strengths, as well as, weaknesses in setting and achieving important goals in life.

The Purpose of Self Motivation
One will need to do a thorough self assessment, in order to come up with a clear picture on where they stand with regards to achieving life goals. Knowing his or her strengths is very important for the person to continue to achieve goals and even improve the strengths further. Having a good knowledge about the weaknesses are also important to improve these weaknesses and become successful in those areas in the future.
Motivation is what keeps people living their lives to the fullest in this world. Without motivation, people will find their lives boring and they would not achieve anything worthwhile. There tends to be many people who are dependent on other people to inspire and motivate them to achieve anything worthwhile in life.  Due to this, it is a very good probability that they will not achieve any goal in life without the help of another person. In this type of scenario is where the purpose of self motivation would really come in handy.

A person who needs to improve on self motivation should start by first setting his or her mind on it. In order to achieve anything in life the first requirement is the appropriate mindset. Make up your mind to be self motivated and do not give up until you achieve it.  You will need pure purpose and clarity.

The mindset is also important in handling any negative thoughts and feelings that are sure to surface once you have decided to pursue self motivation.


Improving on self motivation should be approached by targeting simple goals at first. If you start with a large goal, you may get discouraged when you cannot achieve the goal and give up on it completely. Be sure to set goals which are simple and can be achieved with little effort at first.  Enlarge these steps with the achievement of each goal.

Little by little you can learn to achieve difficult goals and finally set targets to achieve the most important goals in life such as perfect health, financial freedom, perfect relationship etc.

The Purpose of Self Motivation
As discussed above the purpose of self motivation is to help you live life to its fullest potential in the here and now.  As Les Brown says, “We have to get out of our head and comfort zones.”

“People often say that motivation doesn’t last.  Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.” —  Zig Ziglar

“Motivation is what gets you started.  Habit is what keeps you going.”  -  Jim Ryun
