Emotional atmosphere

Attitudes are contagious. Is yours worth catching?

Your attitude creates an emotional atmosphere around you. Other people unconsciously detect it.People with positive attitudes are nearly always natural leaders and motivators. People gravitate towards them, just as they avoid individuals who continually mope or complain.

What is your attitude like? Is it one that others would want to emulate in their own lives? Instead of jumping to throw in a negative comment, try to think of something good to say instead. You don’t have to hold in your feelings, but remember that no one likes being around a pessimist. Pessimists dampen the atmosphere wherever they go and drag down anyone in their presence. Positive people do their best to avoid them.

Do everything you can to become one of the optimists so people will want to be around you. It will do wonders for your own self esteem. Yes you will come across those who still want to pull you down to their level. But if they don’t want to be uplifted by your positive atmosphere leave them be.

Attitudes are contagious so fill your environment with happiness, enthusiasm, and optimism!
