Your Attitude Creates Your Reality

Wednesday, April 8, 2009

External circumstances mean nothing until you associate a feeling to them. For example, do you ever notice that it is harder to get out of bed Monday morning than it is on Friday morning? There is no difference between the two days. Your attitude is the deciding factor. On Monday, you think about the week ahead and everything that needs done. On Friday, you think about the weekend that is right around the corner. In most cases, Friday does turn out to be a better day than Monday because your thoughts alter your attitude and your attitude alters your experiences.

This theory can also be tested on a day you are running late. Your mind tells you to hurry and things seem to go wrong or take longer than usual because you are frantically trying to make up lost time. Instead, if you accept the fact that you are late and make a point of staying calm, you will be more efficient and in control. You can believe the world is against you or you can believe everything is in alignment for you. Either way, you will be right because your attitude creates your reality.
