Swine Attitude! Its Contagious

Your attitude is like the swine flu.......it’s contagious! Attitude affects many things, including the people around you. Your friends, family, colleagues or acquaintances will catch your bad attitude and spread it to others, just like the Swine Flu.

Attitudes are contagious. Are yours worth catching? ~Dennis and Wendy Mannering


Work on your attitude. Take a few moments each morning to think about your attitude. If you feel a bad attitude or thought coming on, have the discipline to catch yourself and push it away. Thinking positive will make you feel positive!

A positive attitude can only be a great thing! For those of you that believe that attitude does not affect the outcome, then this "attitude check" will at least make the time waiting for the outcome more pleasant for you and the people around you. For those of you that do think attitude affects outcome (which I do) then you will not only improve the experience leading to the outcome, but the outcome itself.

Today is a perfect day to start with a positive attitude. Start when you wake up. Think about how awesome it is to wake up early and get a head start on your week. Move on to that "perfect" breakfast and out the door for some peaceful traffic on the way to work! Greet your colleagues in the office with a smile and maybe a hand shake and then get cranking on whatever it is you have to do today. Every hour or so, stop what you are doing and remind yourself about the positive attitude you will be carrying today. It’s so simple and I promise will make a huge difference in how your day goes as well as the day of the people around you!

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. ~Winston Churchill
