THE POWER OF
POSITIVE ATTITUDE

MOTIVATIONAL LEADERSHIP & KNOW THY

BY
FAISAL KAMRAN
WHO ARE YOU?
WHAT ARE YOU?
YOU ARE THE PRODUCT
OF
YOUR ATTITUDES
These attitudes are
maintained by the
inner conversation
you constantly have
with yourselves, both
consciously and
subconsciously
So,
The first step in
changing your
attitude is to
change your inner
conversation.
PMA
POSITIVE MENTAL
ATTITUDE
Positive or
Negative
Active or
Passive.
Optimist or Passimist
PMA
It is quite common to hear people say:
"Think positive!", to someone who feels
down and worried. Most people do not
take these words seriously, as they do
not know what they really mean, or do
not consider them as useful and
effective. How many people do you
know, who stop to think what the power
of positive thinking means?
PMA
The following story illustrates how this
power works.
Allan applied for a new job, but as his
self-esteem was low, and he considered
himself as a failure and unworthy of
success, he was sure that he was not
going to get the job. He had a negative
attitude towards himself, and believed
that the other applicants were better
and more qualified than him. Allan
manifested this attitude, due to his
negative past experiences with job
PMA
His mind was filled with negative
thoughts and fears concerning the job
for the whole week before the job
interview. He was sure he would be
rejected. On the day of the interview he
got up late, and to his horror he
discovered that the shirt he had
planned to wear was dirty, and the
other one needed ironing. As it was
already too late, he went out wearing a
shirt full of wrinkles.
PMA
During the interview he was tense,
displayed a negative attitude, worried
about his shirt, and felt hungry because
he did not have enough time to eat
breakfast. All this distracted his mind
and made it difficult for him to focus on
the interview. His overall behavior made
a bad impression, and consequently he
materialized his fear and did not get the
job.
PMA
Jim applied for the same job too,
but approached the matter in a
different way. He was sure that he
was going to get the job. During
the week preceding the interview
he often visualized himself making
a good impression and getting the
job.
PMA
In the evening before the interview
he prepared the clothes he was
going to wear, and went to sleep a
little earlier. On day of the
interview he woke up earlier than
usual, and had ample time to eat
breakfast, and then to arrive to the
interview before the scheduled
time.
PMA
He got the job because he made a
good impression. Of course he had
also the proper qualifications for
the job, but so had Allan.
PMA
What do we learn from these two stories? Is
there any magic employed here? No, it is all
natural. When the attitude is positive we
entertain pleasant feelings and constructive
images, and see in our mind's eye what we
really want to happen. This brings brightness
to the eyes, more energy and happiness. The
whole being broadcasts good will, happiness
and success. Even the health is affected in a
beneficial way. We walk tall and the voice is
more powerful. Our body language shows the
way you feel inside.
PMA
Negative thoughts, words and
attitude bring up negative and
unhappy moods and actions. When
the mind is negative, poisons are
released into the blood, which
cause more unhappiness and
negativity. This is the way to
failure, frustration and
disappointment.
PMA
Practical
Instructions
In order to turn the mind
toward the positive, inner work
and training are required.
Attitude and thoughts do not
change overnight.
PMA
Once a negative thought enters your
mind, you have to be aware of it and
endeavor to replace it with a
constructive one. The negative thought
will try again to enter your mind, and
then you have to replace it again with a
positive one. It is as if there are two
pictures in front of you, and you choose
to look at one of them and disregard
the other. Persistence will eventually
teach your mind to think positively and
ignore negative thoughts.
PMA
In case you feel any inner
resistance when replacing negative
thoughts with positive ones, do not
give up, but keep looking only at
the beneficial, good and happy
thoughts in your mind.
PMA
It does not matter what your
circumstances are at the present
moment. Think positively, expect
only favorable results and
situations, and circumstances will
change accordingly. It may take
some time for the changes to take
place, but eventually they do.
Let yourself be Happy.

Definitions of Will Power
and Self Discipline?
It is the inner power that
overcomes the desire to indulge in
unnecessary and useless habits,
and the inner strength that
overcomes inner emotional and
mental resistance for taking
action. It is one of the corner
stones of success, both spiritual
and material.
SELF DICIPLINE
The human being is full of inner
unconscious, or partly conscious,
impulses. People sometimes say or
do things they later regret saying
or doing. On many occasions
people do not think before they
talk or act.
Will power and self-
discipline
Willpower and self-discipline help
us to choose our behavior and
reactions instead of being their
slaves. Don't think that life will become
dull and dry in this way. On the
contrary, you will feel more powerful, in
charge of yourself and your
surrounding, and consequently much
more happy and satisfied.
How many times have you felt too
weak, lazy or shy to do something
you wanted to do? You can gain
inner strength, initiative and the
ability to make decisions and
follow them. Believe me,
itis not difficult to develop these
two powers. If you are earnest and
are willing to become stronger,
you will certainly succeed.
By practicing appropriate
exercises, you develop your
powers the same way, as a person
who trains the muscles in order to
strengthen them.
Developing Will Power and
Self Discipline
One way to develop and
improve these abilities is to
practice doing some
disagreeable things in your
daily life. Your mind and
feelings will probably oppose
doing them, nevertheless, do
them.
Remember, strengthening one of
these abilities, automatically
strengthens the other one.
EXCERCISE
1)You are sitting in a bus or train and
an old man or woman, or a pregnant
lady walks in. Stand up and give up
your seat even if you prefer to stay
seated. Do this not just because it is
polite, but because you are doing
something that you are reluctant to do.
In this way you are overcoming the
resistance of your body, mind and
feelings.
2) There are dishes in the sink that
need washing, and you postpone
washing them for latter. Get up and
wash them now. Do not let your
laziness overcome you. When you know
that in this way you are developing your
will power, and if you are convinced of
the importance of will power in your
life, it will be easier for you to do
whatever you have to do.
3)You come home tired from work
and sit in front of the T.V. because
you feel too lazy and tired to go
and wash yourself. Do not obey
the desire to just sit, but go and
have a shower
4)You may know your body needs
some physical exercise, but
instead you keep on sitting doing
nothing or watching a movie. Get
up and walk, run or do some other
physical exercise.
5) Do you like your coffee with
sugar? Then for a whole week
decide to drink it without sugar.
You like to drink three cups of
coffee each day? For a week drink
only two.
6) Overcome your laziness.
Convince yourself of the
importance of what is to be done.
Convince your mind that you gain
inner strength when you act and
do things, in spite of laziness,
reluctancy or senseless inner
resistance.
7)Sometimes, when you want to
say something that is not
important, decide not to say it.
8)Don't read some unimportant
gossip in the newspaper, even if
you want to.
9) You have a desire to eat
something not too healthy. Refuse
the desire.
10) If you find yourself thinking
unimportant, unnecessary,
negative thoughts, try to develop
lack of interest in them, by
thinking about their futility.
Advantages of Possessing
Strong Will Power and Self
Discipline
You need both of them in order to
rule your thoughts and to be the
boss of your mind. The stronger
they are, the more control you
have over your thoughts, and
consequently your powers of
concentration get stronger.
Theseabilities are essential for self
growth, spiritual growth and
meditation. They give you control
over your daily life, help you
improve your habits and behavior,
and they are the keys to every
success.
List 10 Things you are grateful
for.

The Eaglet that
turned a Chicken
A story goes that a farmer
once found an eagle’s
egg and put it with the
eggs of the hen in his
courtyard.
The eaglet hatched with
the brood of chicks and
grew up with them.
All his life the eaglet did what the chicks
did, thinking he was a chicken.
He scratched the earth for worms
and insects.
He clucked and cackled; and he
would sometime thrash his wings
and fly a feet or so in the air.
Years passed by and the eagle grew
old.
One day he saw a magnificent bird above
him in the cloudless sky.
It glided in a graceful majesty
among the powerful wind currents,
The old eagle looked up in awe.
Who’s that? He asked.

If you are kind, people may accuse you
of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway
If you are successful, you will win some
unfaithful friends and some genuine
enemies;
Succeed anyway
If you are honest and sincere people
may deceive you;
Be honest and sincere anyway
What you spend years creating, others
could destroy overnight;
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
some may be jealous;
Be happy anyway
The good you do today, will often be
forgotten
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it may
never be enough;
Give your best anyway.
What you spend years creating others
