Everyone starts with a clean Attitude

Everyone Starts With A Clean Mental Window

Let's take a few moments to discuss why I say that your attitude is your window to the world. We all start out in life with a good attitude-or, should I say, a clean mental window. Just watch young children. They are always laughing and giggling. They have a sunny disposition. They love to explore new things.

Consider the attitude of a child who's learning to walk. When he stumbles and falls down, what does he do? I'll tell you what he doesn't do. He doesn't frown or blame the carpet. He doesn't point fingers at his mother or father for giving him lousy instructions. He doesn't quit. Oh, no. He smiles, gets up again and  makes another attempt. And another. He keeps going for weeks and weeks with a positive attitude until he gets it right! His window is squeaky clean, and he feels like he can conquer the world.

                                          

But as you know, there comes a point where life starts throwing some dirt at our windows. And here's what happens :- 

• Our windows get splattered by criticism from parents and teachers.
• Our windows get smudged by ridicule from peers.
• Our windows get smeared by rejection.
• Our windows get soiled by disappointments.
• Our windows get clouded by doubt.

                                            

The problem is, the dirt keeps building up, and all too many people do nothing about it. They continue to go through life with a filthy window. They lose their enthusiasm. They get frustrated and depressed. And most tragically they give up on their dreams, all because they failed to clean their window.
