5. Look for the "half-full" glass
Are you an optimist or a pessimist? Do you think about the good first, or the bad? Do you see your glass as half-full or half-empty? Do you believe life just happens to you, or that you influence what happens?
It’s all in the attitude. A person with a good attitude thinks like this:
- "We’ve worked hard, and we have just a few important tasks left!"
- "When I finish this part of the project, I’m going to celebrate!"
- "This job is difficult, but I’m learning a lot I can use later."
- "I gave up personal time, but my boss will appreciate it."
