How to Develop a Positive Attitude In Uncertain Times

Our attitude and the way we show up even during challenging times are crucial. Attitude is the way that "I" choose to present myself. It is a direct reflection of results, beliefs, assumptions, and behaviors. Our results are founded on habits, assumptions, beliefs, expectations, and attitudes.

Notice your attitude. Your attitude is a direct reflection of your results. Regardless of your past conditioning and negative attitudes, and poor habits, you can overcome negative attitudes. To improve your results, develop positive thoughts and a positive attitude.

NOTICE YOUR ATTITUDE:

-When you notice your attitude being sluggish or negative, instantly shift to a positive attitude

-Notice positive qualities within the people you surround yourself with and compliment them

"Each day I come with a positive attitude, focusing on the better me."

-Alisha Nicole

INSTANT SHIFTS:

1. Smile when you feel sluggish: Smile all day long and smile at the people around YOU even when you go to the grocery store. Smile at strangers.

2. Name three things you are grateful for: when you shift to gratitude, it changes your vibration.

3. Compliment a stranger and compliment yourself: it feels good to edify and complement others, including yourself. Focus on getting yourself into a feel-good state.

5. Do not take things personally: Focus on not taking offense and shift the situation or circumstance.

6. Shift your energy: Put your two fists together when you feel sluggish or like you are having a bad day and say out loud, HAAAAA with intense emotion. This will shift your energy.

7. Use affirmations: Write three affirmations about yourself and state out loud; these are my TRUTH.

8. Be still: Spend 2 minutes in silence telling yourself positive self-talk, then journal about it.

9. Greater good: Look for the greater good in all circumstances.

10. Interrupt: Interrupt your negative habits and replace them with positive habits.

11. Hug someone: Give someone a hug. This will create a positive emotional experience.

12. Positive self-talk: Tell yourself each day TODAY is going to be a good day.
