Attitude Diet...

Rise and Shine. Monday is here. How's weekend everyone? Hope it was great. SO, this Monday I'm gonna open up a new week by starting a diet plan. Really? A diet plan? But don't worry, this diet doesn't include any food or beverage. It's all about your soul diet, precisely, it's about a Positive Attitude Diet =) Sounds great, doesn't it? The diet plan was made by Dr. Allan Zimemerman which I found via about.com. Follow this "4-Day Attitude Diet" to gain success...

Positive Attitude Diet Day 1: Fill your mind with positives.

Instead of living your life on autopilot, letting any and all thoughts come into your mind, consciously feed your mind positive input. Do this on the first day of every week, and do it throughout the day. Read inspirational books; listen to uplifting music, or call an upbeat person. And by all means, avoid the cynics and gripers.

Positive Attitude Diet Day 2: Affirm yourself.

To build a positive attitude you must remind yourself of past victories. Congratulate yourself on the good you have done and will do. And refuse to let any self-doubt enter your mind. Just tell yourself over and over, "I am filled with confidence, and I am competent."

Positive Attitude Diet Day 3: Think only good things about people.

Don't allow ill thoughts to enter your mind. Look for something you like in everyone you meet. One person might have a great smile, and another one might be extremely dedicated to his work. You can always find something you like.

Positive Attitude Diet Day 4: Speak only positive words.

In order to build and maintain a positive attitude, you must speak hopefully about everything -- your job, your customers, your manager, your employees, your children, your health, and your future. Go out of your way to talk optimistically about everything.
