YOU'RE AN OVERCOMER: IMPROVE YOUR ATTITUDE


Last week we got STARTED with getting you from where you are to where you want to be. Today, I want to start with some LIFE “TWEAKS”.

Winston Churchill once stated that "Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference." 

Principle 1:
I know… you hear this all the time but it’s 100% TRUTH! Your attitude always PRECEDES you! People feel your attitude before they feel your heart. Some might say that, “I just can’t be fake Clay. I’ve got to be REAL and my current circumstance is NO GOOD so the BAD attitude is just who I am right now!”

Listen… The ATTITUDE that you carry is the attitude that you CHOOSE. Things might not be perfect but you have to train yourself to see your LIFE in a POSITIVE way!

When you’re feeling that bad attitude creeping up on you just STOP and start thinking about your BLESSINGS! Trust me… You may think you’ve got it rough but there is always someone else whose predicament is more dire than yours. If you’re breathing… BE THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU’VE GOT!

Life Tweak: STOP WHINING! 

The way to defeat discouragement is to change your focus.  It’s amazing what happens when we center our thoughts on good things. I love what the Bible to do to change our attitudes…  whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.  (Philippians 4:8)

I’m telling you, Get away from the negative and search out the positive and watch your ATTITUDE shift and when your attitude shifts you can EXPECT your day to give you your desired outcome! 

You’ve got this! This is the first step in shifting your momentum! I’m praying for you so remember… You’re NEVER ALONE!  Check back next week for the next “LIFE TWEAK”.
