Winston Churchill (1874-1965), British Orator, Author, and Prime Minister once said: “Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”
Have you checked in on your attitude lately? It is easy to forget that it is louder than our words. We talk without speaking. And our speaking is colored with our attitude.
Yet only we can adjust this thing called attitude or our disposition toward anyone or anything. It can be laced with goodwill or ill will toward others. We get to choose.
We tend to have a good attitude toward those that we think will not harm us, want our good and the best for us, and are “on our side”. But have you noticed that attitudes change when the reverse is true?
When was the last time you took an inventory about all your attitudes toward anyone or anything? It is always a refreshing exercise for it will illuminate what perhaps needs a reconciliation so that indeed rather than foster divisiveness in our relationships and feed polarities, we can instead foster unity and move toward higher consciousness.
Conscious evolution is nothing other than evolution by choice and our awareness we make the choice rather than chance and let things “just happen”. We can make choices with greater conscious awareness (our aware eyes open) or unconsciously (our aware eyes closed). Attitude anyone?
