Our attitude, negative or positive, is an addiction

Do you feed your positive attitude as much as you feed your stomach?

Is your positive attitude on a diet?

Malnourished?

Do you starve yourself?

Or would others say you are a (positive attitude) role-model for “healthy eating”.

Do you read personal development books and articles frequently?

Why, or, why not?

If it’s why not, how long has it been since you used to read developmental books?

And if you read professional development all the time, can you imagine where you’d still be if you had never been focused on learning and improving?

Grateful Dead quote — Unable to give attribution. But someone did a nice job sharing a quote from Grateful Dead lead singer Jerry Garcia.

Years ago i added this sentence to my professional experience section on LinkedIn:

RIP common sense

Last night from the restaurant, in the distance, the Orlando Eye. Common sense tells us to look to the horizon (future). Almost imperceptible.

Culture is the most powerful tool we have to change behavior.

Personally and professionally.

Let’s focus on personally right now.

All our life we are selfishly robbing from common sense, which insidiously erodes our standards.

Common sense can’t reason with excuses, distractions, or fear.

Because of this inability to reason, excuses, distractions, and fear easily outsmart common sense.

In our efforts to find shortcuts to save time and or money, and to avoid pain or embarrassment, we take creative (and what appears to be innocent) shortcuts.

What we accept by default becomes our standard.

RIP common sense.

What’s it going to be today?

motivation — No consistency, no success. Edgy, but can anyone say it’s false and have others believe it? From LinkedIn. i don’t know who Grant Carone is, nor does knowing change anything for me.

What’s it going to be today?

What was it yesterday?

Who’s in charge of your answers?

Who needs to fix anything, say attitude, that needs fixing?

Not until the desire for risk is greater than safety

Bruce Lee quote — Yesterday from LinkedIn. Risk and reward are inextricably linked.

There’s no heavier burden than a great potential. – Linus, from Charlie Brown

It makes sense that we should greatly influence our individual self before we can believe we are qualified to influence others, no?

Desire and purpose are the twin siblings of positive change.

We can only accomplish something great when our desire for taking the risk is greater than our desire for playing it safe.
