I believe that attitude is the most important thing in the whole world for living life. Do you believe that you will never get what you want/need? Do you believe that men/women are generally bad and you'll never find the one? Do you believe that you'll never get a better job? Do you believe that you're not worthy of everything good in this life? I'm not asking for anwers to these questions, I'm wondering if you think that your position on these determines how your life plays out.

I believe they do.

Absolutely. We bring forth our own destiny by what we believe.

Yep! And if not...I'll just hunt down & kill it...

why didnt I become a famous movie star when I was a kid then?!?!!?!?!?

because you didnt eat enough peanuts or diet sprite.

I believe EVERY day you have a choice .. do I start my day half EMPTY ?? or half FULL ... I'm a half full guy .. so... filler up

The power of positive thinking.

Rent the video, "The Secret".

Thinking a little more about this......

I think people who hold onto anger bring negative circumstances to their lives as well. I know there are some hurts that never really heal and it's hard not to feel anger towards the person who hurt us, but I think if you don't let it go it will destroy you.

I see a lot of people around me who are waiting to meet that special person but all they talk about is how there is no one or no one who is any good. I think it's a self defeating prophecy (is that the right term?)

Yep. That's what happened to me.

Fear Leads to Anger, Anger Leads to Hate, Hate Leads to Suffering

life has kicked me in the ass alot its doing it now,but evetually its legs gets tired or i give it a "JUDO CHOP"

Self fulfilling prophecy. That's what I meant.

Very true...

Yeah, and I don't think it's just those times when we are down about a particular experience we are going through. I think we all have our bad days, but that's different than your overall attitude and beliefs.

thanks for supporting me on my little rant this morning. By the way, I love the barbie pics.

Yes, and I also believe in karma. Although sometimes bad things DO happen to good people, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason.

Of course. If you think negative, negative things will happen. however it's difficult to think positive ALL the time. I mean I try but I'm no friggin Mary Poppins but I do try to think positive as often as I can.

Seems as if I know of this 1st hand.

I held a lot of anger, for lots of different reasons, to particular people in my life, though deserving so.

After many years, I thought, just let it go, and i'm sorry it took so long to understand that.
We can't change the past, cant predict the future, we have to live for today, theres no promise of tommorrow. So yes, attitude about life does play on our outcome.

I agree 100%. Confidence and attitude are the most important things in employment, relationships and general living. Followed closely by actual ability.
