Browse Attitude and Perspective

If during a variety of interactions the responses from others seem to be more negative than the messages you intended to convey, or if you sometimes feel others just don’t like you for some reason, perhaps it's time to consider the source. Is it possible your messages and actions are not being accurately received because of your delivery? Is there perhaps something in your emotional background adding a more debasing lean to your perceptions of how others see you, and if so, might you be reacting toward them in line with these false perceptions?

Have you ever watched people bowl? Many of them go through a little ritual before they actually get to the point of hurling their bowling ball in the direction of the pins. They carefully lace up their bowling shoes, and then the hunt for the perfect bowling ball begins. They may put on a bowling glove as well as an elbow brace. As they step to the line they glare at the bowling pins and get into their approach posture. Then they step forward and release the bowling ball down

This is probably a topic that has been beaten down so much that I’m almost embarrassed to write about it. But I can’t help it. You can tell a lot about a person from the way they shake hands with you. Whether they intend to let you know or not. How can that be? How do you know if the person doesn't have a weak hand or some other medical condition preventing them from doing any other type of handshake other than as though you are shaking hands with a piece of tissue paper?

Here is an essential principle of Mental Toughness We all experience frustration when our needs, wants and demands are not met, or when we are faced with obstacles that impede our progress. Frustration is a fact of life; therefore our ability to tolerate frustration is crucial to the successful achievement of our long-term goals.

This is a well-proven fact that your success is dependent on your attitude. People having similar social and educational background attain contrasting level of achievements. So much so that siblings who get almost same type of social exposures and similar genetics achieve different level of success. You may dismiss these observations with stale phrases like ‘lady luck doesn’t smile on everyone.’ However, the fact is that ‘Luck ‘is nothing but right attitude. Irrespective of t

Life indeed throws a curve ball at us every now and then, doesn’t it? You can never predict what's going to happen next, unless your level of awareness matches that of the 'Sages of the Ages' exclusive club members. But for an everyday Joe or Mary or Svetlana (I like that name, and I had to use it), things could get pretty stressful, if events happen contrary to what was planned, which they will along the path. Now, there are different strategies that are in vogue to overcom

It's Monday morning. You just had a fun and relaxing weekend - and now it's time to get back to the grind. It's understandable that most people dread Mondays - after all, the number of people working unfulfilling jobs is staggering! So, it makes sense that most of them have a hard time dragging themselves out of bed when that alarm goes off. But it's not all bad. In fact, the only way you will get out of working the job you dislike is to face reality and accept that this is

Listening to the weather forecast one frigid day, I realized how much we are influenced by the catastrophic thinking of the media. The weatherman reported, "The weather has brought more misery to the St. Louis area." Certainly, the weather was causing problems that day. An ice storm caused car doors and locks to be frozen so that people had a great deal of trouble getting into their cars. However, I thought, unless someone was in the middle of nowhere with no cell phone and t

We all pick up emotional burdens of varying weights and sizes while growing through life. Many eventually fall by the wayside, some we learn to live with, while others are more like a thorn in one’s heart, or worse, causing enough pain and anguish to impact the quality of life. It is always worthwhile to attempt minimizing or eliminating such emotional impediments to living a happier life, though for many people the need to do so is vital to being able to comfortably move forward in life at all.

When we are afraid of failing at something, we tend to think or obsess about it, which is normal, particularly just in advance of whatever it is we may be attempting to do. Unfortunately, this latent fear many times causes us to imagine various scenarios of failure, and not without repercussions.

A self-fulfilling prophecy is a statement or prediction that influences actions and thoughts to the extent that it becomes true. There are many examples in literature, movies, and real life of self-fulfilling prophecies that are negative in nature. These cautionary tales show how powerful of an effect belief can have in determining how our lives unfold. The good news is that not all self-fulfilling prophecies have to be negative. In fact, they can actually be very positive an

If I were to rank all the factors that go into creating a likable personality, I would have to place a friendly smile at the top of the list. A warm, authentic smile communicates feelings that words alone can’t possibly accomplish. A great smile radiates warmth, puts people at ease and makes a good first impression. The impact Of Your Smile As you meet people, you will see a wide range of smiles. These smiles will vary from the “habit smile” where they are smiling sub-c

Considering the recent unfortunate trends that had happened in India and Manipur in particular, it is a must for every citizen who wants to get the fruit of network marketing to know the trends and development of Network Marketing in India as well as other countries of the world. Many MLM Network companies have looted crores of rupees from the innocent publics of Manipur. Visarev, Forex Achievements, Speakout Asia, Global Finance, Jagran, etc are the top looters who defamed the nice principle of Network Marketing companies.

The key business strategy is simple and it changes everything. You need to make time every single day to plan and implement ideas and strategies for developing your thinking to grow your businesses. More specifically, you need to make time every single day to take an honest look at where you are being blocked in your thinking or mindset. Are you self-sabotaging and finding excuses not to do follow up and call your clients? Or are you afraid to ask for the money when working w

A request was made that I incorporate some management and leadership tips into the tone of it, so here it is. We each interact with the world in different ways; we create our situations just as much as they create us. This “circle of life” can be summed up with the following six statements: 1. Different persons respond differently to the same situation.

During the holiday season, it’s important to have “an attitude of gratitude.” This is the perfect time of year to remember how blessed we are, how truly amazing life is, and how wonderful the people around us are. Now - more than ever - is the time to show our appreciation towards the things in our lives that makes us happy. Adopting this habit - showing how thankful and grateful we are - will put us in a state of mind to better enjoy the holidays and life altogether.r

It all started innocently enough as I was looking for casters. I had this idea for a piece of exercise equipment and decided to build a prototype but I needed casters - those swivel wheels that go under office chairs, carts, etc. I had to ask three sales clerks where to find them in the big box hardware store before the third clerk actually looked in the computer to figure out where they stocked them. Reluctantly, I purchased four casters from them. It turns out that it wasn't just the service that was lousy.

Traffic jams are time-consuming and therefore a source of low productivity in normal life and in business. As long as population increases and the number of cars increases on the few roads available, traffic jams are inevitable. The entrepreneur must therefore, be able to use the time spent in traffic jams to his advantage. It’s about not allowing the systems to limit you. As an entrepreneur, one of your greatest assets is time and there must be an effort not to waste the one

"Some things simply are. There are no explanations, no logic, simply a reality that is many times beyond control. Sometimes, we must find our own inner strength, our own place from which to draw the courage and fortitude necessary to allow us to live and move beyond that which is painful. Other times, we simply need to find another vantage point from which to see hidden beauty, potential opportunities or perhaps a chance to reach outside of ourselves and help someone less fortunate, thus feeding your heart and distracting bad energy."

If you've been watching TV recently, you will have seen the new commercials for GM. GM is now touting their quality - something the average consumer is certainly not used to seeing GM do. It first surprised me a little that GM decided it was time to start marketing quality over price. This is not something I'm used to from GM. In fact, not too long ago, there were commercials on television selling GM cars at one dollar over invoice. Quality wasn't an issue then. It was all about price. But now, it's all about quality. But is it?

As people with the power of choice it is interesting how we use it. In nature no creature is allowed to go less then all out. If a Cheetah goes half speed during a chase it starves to death. If a group of bees go half speed in their manufacturing they starve to death. If a shark goes half speed chasing down its prey it starves to death. Notice a pattern. But we as human beings with choice continuously make the choice to go half speed. Some of us throughout the course of our lives never even attempt to go all out for anything.

My great grandfather was an officer in the American army that sailed to the Philippines in 1898 to liberate the native people from the Spanish. An imperialistic venture for sure. In his writings, his observations, I was impressed with his absolute belief in his country’s venture, his faith in a quest much bigger than he. His generation’s beliefs, goals, and ideals had a strength of character that is woefully lacking today. Whenever I take pen in hand, I do it with the intent

The most difficult people in our lives end up being our greatest teachers. The hurdles they place before us and the challenges they present to us are only lessons that we must learn for our greater good. Think of the oyster…without the irritating grain of sand there would be no pearl. ~ Randi G. Fine We all experience times of joy and times of suffering as we move through our lives. Life is a breeze during the happy times; we get to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. But w

We all have seen the images of football players in the locker room psyching themselves up, the Olympic athletes waiting beyond the starting line staring into space visualizing what it is they are about to do, the musicians who stand tall and breathe deeply before walking out on stage, or the public speakers that pace in the back hallway sipping water and saying key phrases out loud. No matter what activity a top performer is preparing to do, there is one thing that is certai

We could talk passion all day, it is a catch word, and there have been thousands of articles written about it; but it still seems to be something covered in mystery. A life of passion is a life of Achievement.

In today’s world, we are experiencing more uncertain and troubling times than ever before. Every time you turn on the TV or get on the computer, it seems there is always more news that just weighs you down. On top of that, you have your own personal issues to deal with. This “negative storm” can cause someone to feel stuck, lost and full of anxiety. It is the fear of the unknown that builds up in our mind and takes over like a dark cloud. This dark cloud follows us and rains on us, making us negative in our personal and professional lives.

Was your last meeting one big snooze fest? Whether you’re an association executive, on a program committee, in corporate meeting planning or staff development training the challenge to maintain people’s attention is huge. With four generations in the workplace today meetings can be a headache to get everyone on the same page let alone excited about being there.

Our lives today are fast paced, and we all experience a degree of stress at some point. Each of us must learn how to cope with the stressors of everyday life, and have a means to reduce our stress levels. It is essential to practice giving gratitude on a daily basis. People who are grateful tend to be happier, healthier and more fulfilled. Being grateful can help people cope with stress. Starting today, instead of complaining, give words of gratitude to those you love. Each

If you have never spent time around an older person then that is something that you should probably schedule some time to do. Listen to their stories and their regrets, listen to their loves and their hates, and last but not least listen to their mistakes. I spent some time talking to elderly people and one of the things that they all seemed to stress was to take advantage of your youth. To make the most out of your years because before you know it, those years are behind you and all your left to look at is the end.

Personal presentation skills include correct, method of portraying oneself in public or a social surrounding. It is basically the ability to enhance our communication skills in an appropriate manner. Whether in a completely official set up or while dealing with situations in our daily life, proper personal presentation is absolutely essential in determining the response that we would receive from others. Correct use of body language as well as communication skills in differen

“A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.”– Walter Bagehot All my life, I’ve been terrible at taking direction, not for lack of intelligence, but lack of understanding why somebody would be interested in doing something simply because “that’s the way that things are done”. Right out of the womb, I had to figure things out the hard way, figure them out on my own, or I couldn’t figure them out at all. If there was a “wrong way” of doi

Sow? What the heck does that mean? The definition of sow means to scatter seed over (land, earth, etc.) for the purpose of growth. The Roman philosopher, politician, lawyer, orator, and political theorist, Marcus T. Cicero, said, “As you have sown so shall you reap.” And in the New Testament we find, “…whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7) This phrase has been used to describe good farming practices, but also your own personal productivity. Probably a more modern version of this saying is “what goes around comes around.” It all means the same thing.

I believe passionately that we are all born with our own natural gifts and talents, and that these gifts and talents not only shape who we are, but help us create a much happier human experience. The lens in which we see the world is viewed differently when we follow our bliss. When our heart is open, people, places and things begin to show up in miraculous ways to support our calling. For many, as life unfolds, we lose touch of who we are, and learn to adhere to what society dictates is best for us. The question to ask is, “What is the price to pay for not pursuing our happiness?”

Hey there y'all. Have you ever wondered why so many people never follow their dreams? Have you ever looked around you when you are on the bus, waiting in line at the bank or grocery store or even just around in the street? When you were a kid... You had dreams... you wanted to be a Fire fighter... an actor... a pilot... a billionaire… Spiderman!!! There were no limits to what you wanted to become. Who remembers that jar of cookies on top of the refrigerator... the jar that you could not reach? And do you remember doing everything you could to reach that jar?

If you are trying to get financial freedom, explode your business or if you are just looking for success in life, read this article. In this article I will explain one of the laws of success. There are several laws in universe and we have to learn to work with these laws, because law is working all the time. Just like the law of gravity. It works for everyone and all the time, it does not matter who you are or where you are. Learn to observe these laws and start mentally and

Despite the advice that comes to us from every direction these days to keep a positive attitude, actually doing that all the time or even most of the time is far more easily said than done. Let's face it: life is stressful, and no matter how determined you are in the morning to make the very best of everything, by evening you often feel battered and defeated. Or the optimistic plans you conceived last night melt like candle wax under glaring morning light. Whatever your world

When we look at people around us: people at work or at home, and sometimes at places where we go shop, we are looking at an amalgamation of attitudes and outlooks. Often we encounter good moods, pleasant demeanor and bright smiles. Sometimes, it’s the opposite: exasperation, annoyance and irritation. Ever wonder what makes our moods? What is it that causes us to act in a particular way or react? Let’s ponder it over together.

Creativity is an inbo characteristic of all human beings. Being creative is our birthright and manifesting our creativity is the ultimate expression of our divine nature. Debunking Creativity Myths Before we dig into creativity, there are some myths which need to be debunked first. I have heard many people misinterpret this concept and characterize themselves as not being creative, so I feel the need to clarify things.

Life is full of transitions; none of us remain exactly the same for any length of time. This refers not only to our physical appearance, but also our attitudes, way of thinking, and emotional responses to people and situations. And this is as it should be. Life is not about standing still but about moving forward; about evolving and metamorphosing into a better person. Via this constant striving for betterment we can reach our full potential, achieving all that we were meant

Before walking your truest path to inner peace and happiness you must first discover and be true to yourself. The efforts of seeking approval and connections with others through submission and imitation, though flattering, will neither connect you very deeply with them nor allow you to understand, trust and grow confident in yourself.r

What’s gonna happen next? Do you know? Yeah, me, either. But aren’t we cute? We think we do! We all hold the belief that we know what is going to happen next. Chances are good that the next thing will be similar to the current thing, but that’s just a change, it’s not knowledge. We have different ways of handling that uncertainty. We learned how to handle it when we were little ones, from our adults. Sometimes, we change our ways, often we don’t. Some of us don’t

There are those thoughts that go bump in the night – the Aha! and Eureka! moments of mental clarity. Such thoughts solve problems, begin new ways of doing things, and herald a better situation for the thinker. Such moments indicate a shift in perspective – a new and fresh approach to thinking about a circumstance, situation, relationship and so on. The “charge” resulting from an aha! moment is the literal sensation of a quantum leap to a higher frequency. Thinking is

The Gift Why wait until you are at death's door before realizing what a precious and wonderful gift life really is? Why not learn to appreciate life more now, while you still have the chance, rather than waiting until it is too late to be able to do anything about it? The ability to enjoy life is a product of the mind and a gift of the heart; think of ways to put life into perspective and your heart will reward you with greater inner enrichment and a more gratifying life.r

A story frequently told by guru’s to show people the kind of desire they need to have in order to achieve success is as follows: A boy walks up to an old successful philosopher and says, “I wish to have success like you.” So the old man tells him to meet him at the lake early the next morning and he will impart all of the wisdom that the boy needs to be successful.

No heart is so carved in stone it is forever inflex-ible, so lost in darkness it is incapable of seeing light, or so damaged it will never again flourish, but a heart cannot change or improve independent of the mind. One must be consciously open to new and different perspectives, ideas and approaches, and be willing to accept them as worthwhile.r

In the world today, we encounter a lot of negativity, pain, stress and natural disasters. Many days, we wake up with far too much to do, far too much to think about, far too many conce s, and far too many problems. In Virginia where I live, in the span of less than one week, we experienced a “terrible triad:” an earthquake, a tornado and Hurricane Irene; three major natural disasters capable of causing devastation, tragedies, and causalities. So many of us went through life’s

When it comes to living a life of purpose and destiny, it requires ALL of you. Unfortunately, there can be an inner saboteur that gets in the way of you really taking a risk to stand out and shine. What I found from working with thousands of people is that it is essential to get into right relationship with your ego and your soul. If you are not addressing the needs, conce s, and fears of the ego you will never live your Soul Purpose because the ego will attempt to trip you

Many of us long to live in a state of unshakeable tranquility. What I’ve come to realize is that tranquility is unshakeable ONLY when I’m unattached to outcome, when I’m willing to roll with whatever’s happening. “Serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm.” Resisting is what causes my suffering and shatters my tranquility – resisting pain makes pain more painful (not to mention, what I resist persists!) This is an ongoing learning for me.

Don’t think about that elephant in the room. Whatever you do, do not think about the elephant. Just ignore it. Maybe it will go away. Of course, when you are told NOT to think about something, that is about the only thing you can think of. Even though there is no actually elephant in the same room with you, you were thinking about an elephant, weren’t you? Even if your thought was, “What in heaven’s name is this woman yammering about? There’s no elephant here,” you were s

What’s the difference between having a great life and having a lousy one? The difference between waking up and feeling like you’re on top of the world and some days wondering why you’re even waking up at all? The difference is simple. If you wake up with a feeling of accomplishment and feeling like most of the things in your life are going your way, you’ll feel like your life is great. But, if you wake up counting the mistakes you’ve made and resent yourself for making choice

CLASSIC PROSPERITY TIP #1: THE RIGHT TO BE RICH

Empathy enables a person to establish a connection with others and is necessary for mutual interaction and full comprehension of the experience. It is probably one of the most important aspects of being a leader in every situation. Without it, a person is virtually guaranteed to become out of touch with the environment, he or she is in. Without empathy, a leader cannot lead. Without empathy, a person cannot be in any type of mutually beneficial relationship. Without empathy, a person is basically asking to be completely alone in life.

STEP 1: A critical step to attracting money into your life is to make a decision to shift your perception about money in general and other people’s money. Start treating ALL sources of money with respect. If you don’t approve of how some people are generating their income, then look inwards to transform yourself first. STEP 2: Change your focus. Redirect most of your mental and emotional energies towards your financial goals. It is that simple.

AN AFFIRMATION is a statement someone believes as true or factual. Utilizing affirming statements becomes an empowering jou ey where one converts their creative thoughts into a different and more pleasing reality. Affirmations serve two primary purposes for the ambitious business owner or self-employed professional. First of all, affirmations are constant reminders to the conscious mind about the current goals. This helps the business person stay focused and on course with tasks towards their desired outcome. Second, affirmations serve as internal commands for the subconscious mind.

Recently I was eating in an airport restaurant. The waitress was absolutely great. She was all smiles and when she asked me how I was doing, it felt like she really cared. Her service and attitude in this busy place, filled with its transient clientele, was quite intriguing. I guessed her to be in her early 20’s. The customers, already harried from the challenges of post 9-11 security, were not exactly overflowing with charm. Cheerfulness is not easily found at airports the

After stumbling across the following article on Linked In, I totally had to reproduce it (with permission of course). Author Colleen Slaughter (www.coachforauthenticleaders.com) shares a simple solution for worry warts that create so much stress for themselves it often leads to being seriously sick. Here's what she writes:

So I had an interview today about my next project, which is tentatively called the 12 laws, and I was asked a question that I get asked every time I talk to people and I just realized it. “Why do you think most people never get what they want?” My answer, “because most people never decide on what they want, and if they do decide, they never expect to get it.”

Charles Kettering, former head of General Motors, once said, “My interest lies in the future, because I am going to spend the rest of my life there.” That’s where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives as well. We are living in times of tremendous change. We must look forward and imagine a successful future for ourselves. “But,” you say, “I don’t know where to begin. It doesn’t matter where you begin, as long as you begin. Someone once asked Mother Teresa why she

There are about as many different tips to changing yourself as there are people in the world, and every time someone is born they add another tip to the jar. So with that being said, here are some of my tips for how you can change the person you currently are to the person you want to be. 1. You are who you believe yourself to be. Put simply, if you believe you’re an honest person you will be compelled to be honest. This is more than lip service however, you must be honest with yourself when analyzing the way you feel about yourself.

Mental Toughness and The Meaning of Life Here at Mental Toughness HQ we like to go after the “big fish” and ask the difficult questions. So along with the usual questions about their health and circumstances I will often ask clients “what and where is the meaning in your life?” In short, what I am getting at here is: What’s your purpose in living and being? - What’s the point of you?

Anger is part of life, as real and important as happiness, sadness and joy. But when anger spins out of control, we suffer. Work, relationships and health are a few of the areas where too much anger can hurt us. I would like to share three measurements that can help you quickly determine if you need to work on your anger. Frequency – How often do you get angry each day? If the answer is “a lot,” you may have a problem. Domestic examples of frequent anger include constant fig

Rather frequently we're encouraged to clean out clutter at home and work. However, I'd like to present an alte ate viewpoint as I point out the positive aspects of accumulating various items. Collectibles contain messages for both the person owning them and visitors. They say a lot about a person's interests and background. A house or office filled with books sends a message of an erudite occupant. Photographs on the wall are an indication of monumental moments in the person

By enhancing your feeling of introspection as much as possible you will become much more contented with life and much more honest with yourself. There is not much to be gained by only being slightly honest or biased against your shortcomings. It is also necessary that you try to prevent seeing yourself only as a saintly being - like some of these celebrities do. By asking yourself the right questions and being honest with the answers is the best way of developing introspectio

Life is choices and there is no way around that. From the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep your entire day will be filled with choices that you have to make. Even if you decide not to make a choice you are still making a choice. But the question you should ask yourself is: Are these choices creating leverage for me to later go and get what I feel my life is worth; or are these choices creating reasons for why I don’t really even deserve what I already have.

At a recent event, someone I hadn’t met before came up to me and asked me for advice on how to network. I was flattered that the person asked me and puzzled at the same time. I asked him why he wanted my advice. He told me that he was observing me and noticed how easy it seemed for me to meet people and start a conversation with them. He also mentioned that I looked calm, relaxed and sincerely interested in the person I was speaking with. That last comment caught my attention and is something I hear a lot.<!--more-->

1. Dreams Just Happen When you dream, you just see things play out. If you type “dream big” into Google one of the first things to pop up is an article about advice from Steve Jobs. The article talks about how Steve Jobs told a Disney executive to “Dream Bigger”.

“Never eat with people you don’t like because your state of awareness will influence how your food is metabolized.” This is what Deepak Chopra said in a 1993 interview with Oprah Winfrey. He talked about a study that was done where rabbits were fed a diet that was extremely high in cholesterol. The researchers were amazed and puzzled to find that one group of rabbits never got high cholesterol levels. They discovered that the technician who was feeding that group of rab

So often people write articles about how to win over clients, how to achieve success, and how to build a business, yet one subject is often overlooked. That subject is dealing with a client you can’t please. What happens when you have a client that cannot be satisfied and how are you supposed to handle the situation? Many years ago one of our greatest presidents, Abraham Lincoln was quoted as saying: “You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people som

My fist thumped into the soft mattress of my bed as I realized that, once again, I was wide-awake. What was the time? I didn’t know exactly, but because I had been waking at roughly 2am each morning for the last six weeks, I could guess it was around this hour. Frustrated, I tossed and turned and tried to force myself back to sleep. As usual, this approach didn’t work and I grew increasingly angry with my inability to sleep.

The year 2012 in almost ending, as the holiday season knocks on our door. It’s time to be around the family and enjoy some quality time together. But it’s also a great time to review the main events of the passing year and think about what’s coming up for 2013. Out with the Old and in with the New A new year means a new chance. It marks the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new one in our lives. If the last year was not as good as expected, than the new one will break the bad luck. It’s out with the old and in with the new!

What does the word "Mom", "Mother" bring into your head? First thoughts? Mine is a bit American style vision - a woman, mid age, wearing a kitchen apron, with a cooking glove on one hand and holding a glass of lemonade in the other. Brown hair, no glasses, no makeup. This has a lot to do with my mother, but it also differs a lot. You see - my mother is a businesswoman. She helps my dad run a company. This tends to interfere with many household chores which need doing. I wonder - what would my kids see in me when they grow up? What expectations would they have of me and would I meet them?

Do you feel like you’re in rut? Are you bored with your life or don’t know what to do with it? On paper someone could have an amazing life but still be bored: you could have a successful job and loving friends and family, however without the two elements that I’m about to talk about today you may still feel like something is missing from your life. So what are these elements? Purpose and Progression I believe we have a craving to progress and improve; look at how far we h

People often wonder why all their positive thinking, affirmations, visualizations and such have yet to produce their dreams lives. Simple enough. You cannot expect the universe to deliver beyond your image of the universe. And you, positive thinker optimistic visualizer, see a universe full of hardship, misfortune, poverty and lack. The deal is off!rnThe fact is everybody who is trying to be more positive in their own lives has fundamentally negative notions about the world t

Faith in your mind is like adrenaline in your blood. Imagine that you are running for your life from a lion that’s looking to feed you to its family. Chances are you are going to run faster and longer than you have ever run before thanks to a little hormone called adrenaline.

Attitude is a hypothetical construct that represents an individual's like or dislike for an item. Attitudes are positive, negative or neutral views of an "attitude object": i.e. a person, behaviour or event. People can also be "ambivalent" towards a target, meaning that they simultaneously possess a positive and a negative bias towards the attitude in question. n Attitudes are composed from various forms of judgments. Attitudes develop on the ABC model (affect, behavioral cha

There are 350,000 opinions (books) on “leadership” on Amazon. Corporate America can’t seem to draw a consensus on what leadership is so it’s really no big surprise that Corporate America can’t figure out what soft-skills are and why they are important either. You know, for being such a dominating force in the world of business, we really don’t have a clue about the stuff that REALLY makes business run.
