ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING


Bangggg!!!!!! Here comes the most expected blogpost from my side. First of all, i know most of the people are intelligent now-a-days and that's why they may know whatever i'm trying to tell here but inspite of all that, i would like to request my lovely readers not to read this one, just absorb it. Don't gulp it down, keep chewing it, and please, this time, don't judge it, just learn learn and learn. Here, I'm introducing a few anecdotes from a great great book named "YOU CAN WIN" from "SHIV KHERA". And believe me guys and off course the gals, that this is one of the best piece of non-fiction ever which is a complete handbook or should i say the workbook or simply i should say that i can't find words for this book, Just go today and rush your copy, it'll change your life.
ok, lots of talks about the book, now the title. Why did I give that title? Just because it is a fact, a fact that will never change and one more thing here I wanna clarify is that most of the people confuses ATTITUDE with EGO and they know by themselves who are they? Just read it and then you'll come to know, actually what ATTITUDE is.


There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair. He had all colors of balloons, including red, yellow, blue, and green. Whenever business was slow, he would release a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children saw it go up, they all wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon, and his sales would go up again. He continued this process all day. One day, he felt someone tugging at his jacket. He turned around and saw a little boy who asked, "If you release a black balloon, would that also fly?" Moved by the boy's concern, the man replied with empathy, "Son, it is not the color of the balloon, it is what is inside that makes it go up." The same thing applies to our lives. It is what is inside that counts. The thing inside of us that makes us go up is our attitude.

But for having a positive attitude in your life, you'll simply have to be a good person. Someone once approached Blaise Pascal, the famous French philosopher and said, "If I had your brains, I would be a better person." Pascal replied, "Be a better person and you will have my brains." And that truly tells us a lot. I think you might have got the correct definition of ATTITUDE now. Now one more example will finally clear to you the real meaning of positive attitude.
There was a giant who was bullying and harassing the children in the village. One day, a 17-year-old shepherd boy came to visit his brothers and asked, "Why don't you stand up and fight the giant?" The brothers were
terrified and they replied, "Don't you see he is too big to hit?" But David said, "No, he is not too big to hit, he is too big to miss."

In this blog, I talked about what is ATTITUDE? In the next one, I'll talk about steps towards building a positive attitude but first of all, please give a thought to it, think about it and take care of the precaution again, Never confuse "ATTITUDE WITH EGO".
