Attitude

IMPORTANCE OF ATTITUDE

BUILDING A POSITIVE ATTITUDE

STORY:

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 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 thing inside of us that makes us go up is our attitude.

The success of an individual, organisation or country depends on the quality of their people.

William James of Harvard University said, “The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind”.

If people had better attitudes, they’d be better teamplayers, and it’d cut down waste, improve loyalty and, in general, make their company a great place to work.


THINK

“If you had a magic wand and there was one thing you would want changed, that would give you a cutting edge in the marketplace resulting in increased productivity and profits, what would that be?”
