What Is Your Outlook? Look In
"Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference." -Winston Churchill
What's your outlook on life? How do you view the different circumstances that arise in life? Is your view negative or positive? Do you come from a position of fear or faith? Worry or hope? Or do you come from a position with a belief in a good outcome and knowing deep down that everything will always work out for the best?
If you could look inside your mind you would be able to see what paints your view without.
Your mind can be a dark place filled with worry, fear, frustration, anxiety, hate, bitterness, resentment etc. And those kinds of thoughts, emotions and feelings are where your outlook begins to take form. Your inside belief system will color and shape everything you do and how you choose to view life.
People open their eyes each morning and begin to view outside events, people and life in general filtered by this "belief" foundation which is where their attitude towards everything originates.
Some people just seem to have a bad attitude or are miserable, mean, depressed, rude or whatever and the irony is they have a choice. If the reality is that we choose our thoughts, then why would someone choose to view things from the dark side when within them lies the same opportunity to choose thoughts that will make the world a brighter place to live in.
Oh, I know it sounds clich and you've heard it all before but the truth is you may have heard it before but you've chosen not to heed the advice. You may even choose to believe that you can't change your attitude or perspective and that's just the way it is.
Well, whatever you believe you're right!
You can talk yourself in or out of anything. You can rationalize and justify all day long, all life long and do nothing to live a better life. Or, you can begin to realize that you actually hold the keys within you to take your life or at least your attitude towards life in any direction you choose.
There isn't a human being on this planet that doesn't experience some kind of adversity at one time or another. That's life. But, it's not what happens to us in life that matters the most, because things are going to happen, its how we CHOOSE to view what happens to us.
Your outlook can be one that will strengthen your character or one that will make you crumble. Your outlook will determine whether you are a victim or a survivor. Your outlook will color every word you speak and every emotion you experience. Your outlook will determine if you're going to have a good day or a bad day. Your outlook is your choice!
The most difficult thing for people to grasp is that they actually have control over their thoughts. Their thought life is a direct reflection of how they live life. So if that is true, it's up to you to choose your view.
Look within yourself and see if your mind is filled with light, peace, gratitude etc. See if you anticipate good or do you expect to see a negative outcome? Do you choose the kinds of thoughts that will support you or tear you apart? Are you happy or sad?
It is up to you to either keep the view you have or change your view to one that will bring you closer to living with a great outlook on life.
