Broken attitude is tempting but not an option

Apple Care call time
Yes, 3-plus hours on a call for help.

 

Broken attitude is tempting, but not an option. At the end of the call, resolution was not complete. i kept reminding myself during the three-plus hours,  “This is a first world problem challenge”.

That was enough to keep a positive attitude throughout.

Had it not been for the concise, compelling reminder, i would have went off the deep end with impatience.

Few things in life are as powerful as a positive attitude

Went to bed knowing i would potentially miss an incredible finish.

 

Few things in life are as powerful as a positive attitude.

How does a positive attitude work?

It helps us make better decisions.

Two decent choices last night.

Go to bed as close to 10pm as possible to get eight hours of sleep, and miss something potentially amazing.

Or stay up late and not get eight hours of sleep.

Had it been track & field and something potentially remarkable, i may have still made the same choice.

Why, because i won’t be getting eight hours of sleep tonight.

Why?

Need to awake at 3:30am to make it to an early flight to Allentown, PA,

The paradox of being inquisitive

Yesterday at Disney University.

 

leadership quotes
While riding a bicycle to Disney, this thought came. At junglejeff.net today, you’ll see the polished version from more time to think about it.

Our questions proclaim (whether we want them to or not) what we value.

Shallow questions, for example, reveal a shallow mindset. Begging the question, “Why so shallow?”

Deep, thought-provoking (often painful) questions, for example, reveal our mindset too, and invite the question, “Why so much thought and focus?”

It doesn’t matter which we gravitate too, what’s undeniable is how our questions speak to our values, our hopes, and ultimately, to our intentionality in achieving peace and contentment

Involvement is a key success factor

Involvement is a key success factor in any endeavor. We get out of something what we put into it.

We reap what we sow.

Sayings and cliches only happen because they have stood the test of time – and have become timeless truth.

Timeless.

Truth.

Bank on it.

Attitude is everything.

Attitude is a mislabeled word

Attitude is a choice
We call it attitude, but it’s really about gratitude.

 

Attitude is a mislabeled word.

The only way to control attitude is with gratitude.

If you are not the most positive person you know, you are missing a huge lifetime opportunity.
