ATTITUDE (by Dr John Maxwell)
Submitter's Note:
These are some brief notes that I took from an adress by Dr John Maxwell. I hope you find them as uplifting and inspirational as I do... and that is my reason for sharing.
We can learn spiritual principles from the dream jou
ey of Joseph (from the Bible).
Attitude is a CHOICE: The attitude I have today is a CHOICE. Say: "I am responsible for my attitude."
Have the right attitude and you will win in life.
How to put it into practice?

* Invest in others
* Help others on the path to their dreams
* Add value to others. Don't try to be a person of significance, but a person of value.
*
4 ways:

1. Value people: Put others first.
2. Add value to what they value
3. We can do that by making ourselves more valuable.
4. By doing things that God values.
There is an ete
al nature to it.
Always be patient. Wait on your dream. The trials and tribulations of life help us develop patience.
Wait on your dream. Dreams are conceived long before they're realised. Our dreams usually take a long time to lift off. Dreams are like a large aircraft on a runway - initially they take a huge amount of focussed energy to take off; then it soars effortlessly into the stratosphere.
Be forgiving to others who may have hurt you in the past (no matter what someone may have done to you).
Have a forgiving spirit,

You will soar high and be all the person God intended you to be.

"The task ahead of you can always be overcome by the power within you...and the often seemingly difficult or even "impassible") path ahead of you is never as steep with the great spirit that lies within you."
"Success to others may be apparent in what you DO; but
significance, meaning and purpose lies, then reveals itself
in what you ARE and BECOME down the 'river of life' - how and the spirit with which you face, then overcome the daily obstacles, the frequent trials and tribulations along the often rocky path-way of life's magical and mysterious
journey. Light your path brightly." - craig

"Let the light of your BEING shine brightly;
so revealing Who You Really Are.
Be a Bringer of the Light, which emanates from our soul, God, our Creator, the Source, the Essence of Life (and Ground of our very Being).
Therefore, it can do more than illuminate your own path.
YOUR spirit will help makes the lives of others easier by illuminating others paths.
For this light is our humanity, the spirit of God, truth, wisdom, beauty and especially love...
and it lies within each ONE of us.
Through your actions and your being,
let your light, YOUR spirit truly shine brightly on the world,
like the radiance emitted by a candle at midnight." - craig (as adapted from Neale Donald Walsh in 'Conversations with God Book 3').
"Together, one mind, one life at a time, let's see how many people we can impact, encourage, empower, uplift and perhaps even inspire to reach their fullest potentials."
"What we are is God's gift to us.
What we become is our gift to God."
