Changing your attitude with clarity and purpose

The economy is bad and that makes the rest of our lives more challenging and complicated. Instead of complaining about our jobs, we are now grateful that we have one.

There were times in my life I needed direction to be a better person. Before I started my career, I was too focused on just making as much money as I could. When I went to school I went to Woodbury University full time while simultaneously completing my general education classes at the community college full time. I hurried through school and completed my 2 bachelor of science degrees in less than 3 years. I was driven but not happy.

When I started working back in the late 80’s, I remember one of my bosses who saw my potential that gave me a motivational tape by Anthony Robbins. Even though it was just a tape, I became enlightened after listening to it and learned how to change my attitude to become grateful for all the things I had.

After that point, I seemed to excel at all my jobs and get promotions on a regular basis. Sometimes a little thing like giving a friend or a coworker some positive feedback or coaching can turn them into power performers. I know that it worked for me. I would later make tapes for all my workers to listen to and some of them would be inspired. Most would not listen to it and just throw it away.

I found this old YouTube video of Tony Robbins. If you take a minute to listen to his words and reflect how this relates to your life, then you might get to where ever you are looking to get to faster. Little things like this can sometimes make a difference. I am in a good place in my life right now and appreciate everything in it. I hope this could help you, too. Enjoy!
