Lessons on Attitude series - Thomas Alva Edison today

Hello dear friends!

Yes, the weekend is finally here! And you have a great attitude I presume? Wonderful! Now let's look at ways to keep this great attitude every day and thus build the life of our dreams!

So, today we have one more guest, who will teach us lessons on Attitude. His name is Thomas Alva Edison and you might know him as the inventor of the light bulb. Well, here is his lesson:

Opportunity is missed by most because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

As you can see there is no direct reference to attitude in this quote, but nevertheless it is about attitude. Why? Because it is your attitude, which determines whether you see opportunity or not. Let me elaborate on this. If someone has a positive attitude he sees opportunities all over. He knows that he needs to work on them, but they are opportunities nonetheless. A person with a negative attitude, on the other hand, is likely to miss opportunity, as he sees in it work, which he is not willing to do, even if it might bring him success. This is the power of attitude!

So are you convinced now? Do you see the innate value in adopting a positive attitude? Have a great weekend!
