Think
• Can you sing while coming back on
a lifeboat after being just saved
from a wrecked ship.
• Are you able to smile back quickly
when someone really annoyed you.
• Do you always feel lucky that you
are born in a great family that
gave you more values than the
freedom of spending a lot of
money.
• Do you re-initiate talks with a
person with whom you had a bitter
tiff sometime back.
• Did you ever felt that it is you who
get things with lot of struggle, but
others get it relatively easily.

Not Reacting to Apology
Someone is making a repeated apology. I do
not accept it and starts digging even more
things from his past. Is this Attitude.

4. 4
Not Apologising
I know that I have made a mistake, but I am
programmed for not accepting them. Is this
habitual or I need attitude correction.

Not Helping
I can provide some
genuine help due to my
skills or ability, but I
pretend as if I can not.
Am I showing my
attitude.

Passing the buck
I didn't listen, didn't speak, didn't see. Someone
else might have. Is it gandhian philosophy or
attitudinal issue.

Avoid Everything
Break risk by avoiding everything. Do not contribute to
any thing, just avoid and be free. Surely an attitudinal
trait. When it works, when it doesn't, you never know.

A Small Truth …..

12. 12
Lets begin by assigning some codes
If A - Z
are given
sequence
numbers
from 1 to 26

13. 13
Then ..
• H+A+R+D+W+O+R+K
would be
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
• K+N+O+W+L+E+D+G+E
would be
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

14. 14
And ….
• L+O+V+E would be
12+15+22+5 = 54%
• L+U+C+K would be
12+21+3+11 = 47%
(probably you thought this
would be most important)

15. 15
Then what makes 100% ?Then what makes it 100%
• Is it MONEY
M+O+N+E+Y
13+15+14+5+25 = 72% NO!!!
• L+E+A+D+E+R+S+H+I+P
12+5+1+4+5+18+19+9+16 = 89%
Still NO!!!

16. 16
But It must have a solution
• Yes fortunately it has.
IT IS
A+T+T+I+T+U+D+E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

UNDERSTANDING ATTITUDE

19. 19
• CHANGEABLE: Attitude is based on
beliefs, thus it can be changed with
persuasion or experience.
• PERCEPTION OF OTHERS THAT
RELATES TO YOUR VALUE: Adding
value to oneself can change perception of
others. Thus it gets changed.
For. E.g. if you learn singing and others
start enjoying when you sing. You
generally oblige them when you are
asked to sing. You are perceived as
having a positive attitude.

सही रवैया रखने से ,
मन के भाव हैं रहते साफ़ |
सरल ज िंदगी रहती अपनी,

खुद को ब मैं बदल हूँ
