Your Attitude determines Your Altitude

by Brian on


Have you ever heard such a say­ing? ‘Your atti­tude deter­mines your alti­tude?’ That is so true and if we are will­ing to take that say­ing seri­ously it will help us a whole lot to move even fur­ther in our life and achieve greater things than we have ever achieved!!!

There are lots of things that we do not have con­trol over but we do have con­trol over our response to those things. I remem­ber watch­ing the FIFA World Cup 2006 final between Italy and France and we saw a per­fect exam­ple of atti­tude being dis­played. One Ital­ian seemed to insult one of the French and then the French­man head­butted the Ital­ian caus­ing him­self to be sent off the game and pos­si­bly cost­ing his side the World Cup. What makes it bad is that this French­man was a Leg­end in the game of Foot­ball and this was his last game and this is how he will be remembered!!!

I am sure that you have wit­nessed many times in your life how atti­tude deter­mines alti­tude. Some­one once said that it’s not what hap­pens to us that is impor­tant but what we do or how we respond to what hap­pens to us that makes all the difference!!!

One man says ‘I am not giv­ing any money to that bum cause he prob­a­bly has a lot of other money that he begged for through­out the day,’ while another man freely gives him the money know­ing that he has done a good turn for that day.

To be suc­cess­ful you need to have a suc­cess atti­tude and to be unsuc­cess­ful you need a neg­a­tive atti­tude. One per­son goes to a job and says ‘I hate the boss, I hate the peo­ple, I hate the work, it all stinks!!!’ while another per­son says that even though they may not like the way the boss oper­ates they have money com­ing in each month, they live close to their work­place, they get a pen­sion plan etc.

The same sit­u­a­tion but dif­fer­ent atti­tudes. Your atti­tude deter­mines your alti­tude!!! I want to encour­age you to work on your atti­tude. The great­est part of our hap­pi­ness depends not on our posi­tions but our dispositions!!!
