How to Develop Positive Mental Attitude: The 5-Rules for Happiness Blueprint

No doubt that learning how to develop a positive mental attitude isn't something that happens overnight.

In truth, the power of habits is key to your success (or failure) - depending on what you focus on until habits form.

... Having said that, it's mandatory to make sure that the habits you form are "power habits" to enrich your life - financially, emotionally and spiritually.

And, it's never too late to change. In fact, I've been a victim to bad habits throughout the first half of my life.

For example, the other day I was asked if I could complete a particular task. I knew I'd done it before and could probably figure it out, but my psyche resorted to the "old habitual way" of responding... "I could try, but I'm usually not very good at that stuff".

This was a long time embedded BAD habit of mine, with the philosophy that I could make a bigger impression on folks if I gave the illusion that I didn't know what I was doing...

... In fact, if you can believe it, I used to even tell prospective bosses the stuff I could NOT do...

... NOT a good idea!

Unfortunately, I'd kept that philosophy for years, NEVER KNOWING how it was keeping me back from knowing how to develop positive mental attitude, and hence, keeping from achieving success.

"The second half of a man's life is made up of nothing but the habits he has acquired during the first half." - Feodor Dostoevski: Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist, journalist and philosopher

Realizing the bad habits I'd created in the first half of my life has made me now DETERMINED to learn how to develop positive mental attitude in the later half.

Tony Robbins teaches that developing "power habits" through incantations can really help you achieve success through positive mental attitude. Why develop power habits? Because you want MORE out of life... NOT what you've always gotten.

"If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten." - Tony Robbins

Tony began shaping his own destiny when he happened to pick up a little booklet, "The Seven Day Mental Diet", wherein he discovered the secrets to positive mental attitudes.

The idea, however so simple, is profound, and a bit challenging.

But if you can do it - it will change your life forever.

Having said that, I would like to note the following 5 rules for "how to develop positive mental attitude"...

1. Commit to never saying anything negative for seven days.

Of course, that's impossible to not slip on this one! You stub you toe and you say a
four-letter word. Happens all the time. But the idea here is to simply BE AWARE of what you're saying, and then quickly say "I didn't mean that", or "cancel" - out loud if you can.

2. Commit to an attitude of curiosity rather than judgment.

Too many of us tend to judge others to make us feel better about ourselves. Oddly enough, that really only makes you feel better for a very short time. If you can look at the jerk to just cut you off in differ light, "I wonder what's going on in his life to make him that angry"... you begin feeling TRULY GOOD about yourself on the long-term.

3. Commit to find something good about someone and get in the habit of giving complements.

This turns the focus away from YOU and onto someone who you like - and as a result, you feel GRATITUDE. The feeling of gratitude is the most powerful feeling in the Universe to stimulate positive mental attitudes.

4. Decide "not to be perfect".

Overachievers who really strive for perfection have a problem with this one. But think about it. If you're too caught up in appearing perfect to the rest of the world, then you'll never even try. No one gets it right the first time - no matter what "it" is. When you're OK with simply being yourself and not caring what others think - that's when you become a real inspiration to the rest of the world.

5. Have faith.

The power of intention has miraculous strength. Once you BELIEVE, you can ACHIEVE!

"Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve."
... Napoleon Hill, Author, "Think and Grow Rich"

I'm finding that the EASIEST WAY to change my old bad habits into new "power habits" has to do with listening to powerful audio recordings every day.

This is not only the easiest, but also the MOST EFFECTIVE way for how to develop positive mental attitude!

That old adage "it's not what you know it's who you know" is true - but not because the people you know give you a leg up in business. It's because, when you hang around with people who possess real "power habits", then this raises your own interpersonal standards and you start possessing the same habits yourself.

I no longer live paycheck to paycheck working at a job where I'm underqualified, because I'd learned to have confidence in myself and carry myself with authority simply by following the outline in the "brain trick" exercise mentioned on this post [http://nancyharnell.com/?p=7843].
