Change Your Attitude And Altitude

Happy Hump Day. What a week its been...  and it's only Wednesday. Rain is definitely a mood changer, but it's necessary. In this hectic, pandemic environment, it can be difficult to gain your footing and head in the right direction. The key to the journey is your attitude. Do you view life from a half full or half empty perspective? Do you have control over the things that you do? Or do you have a fatalistic approach? People generally want to gain money and influence. They want to garner respect and accolades for the work they do. My Dad always says " if you're going to be a potato peeler, be the best potato peeler you can be". In this social media society, we see the risk takers rewarded. Likes and shares are heaved upon the extraordinary stories, and the funding generally follows. Bad attitudes stem from frustration and stagnation. Are you caught up in a "routine"? Do you wake up to punch in and punch out? Do you commute the same route every day? Or are you sheltering in place with no interaction with the public? Do you order the same thing from the same restaurants all the time? Have you ever ventured into something different? Or are you caught in the grips of the pandemic laden news cycle? I try my best to shake things up just to experience something new. I was fascinated by a Zoom meeting discussing government contracts. The impressive part was how bold the presenter was in offering assistance with new entrepreneurs navigate the application process... that he had not mastered yet. He was showing the entire world how he incorporated recent changes in grants, subsidies and bids. The Association switched things up a bit in having this seminar with relative newcomers to the field. His can do attitude was infectious and encouraged many attendees to add to their business model. What have you done to enhance yourself? Your family? Your business? It doesn't have to be earth shaking. Just momentum shifting. Augment your routine to help maintain who you are and highlight your brand. Raising your attitude goes a long way in refreshing and rejuvenating your mind, body, and spirit. I have set higher expectations since I'm also changing my lifestyle.  Let the creativity spawn your sense of purpose.  Stoke the fire that burns within. Go. Do. Be. Live your best life. The purple life.  Share your comments below.  Thank you for reading this article  and supporting this blogspace. Stay safe, masked and healthy. Take Care and God Bless!!!
