How your attitude builds success? This is one of those questions that make you stop in your tracks and wonder what answer you should give. How much you know about this life is what makes you arrive at a decision. It makes you confident that the choice that you made is the right one. 

Every decision that you made is dependent not only on what you know but also on how you feel. The study of philosophy deals with everything that is logical in your life, including the information that you know and the thinking habits that you have. Attitude, on the other hand, focuses on dealing with emotional issues. It is primarily all about one’s understanding of his existence. 

Simply put, what you know puts your knowledge into perspective. However, it is your attitude that takes charge of how you act in a given situation. Much like how your thoughts can bring you closer to your dreams, your emotions can greatly affect how you move forward into the future that you want for yourself. In fact, your attitude towards the things, people, and situations around you can determine what awaits — fortune or disaster. 

The feelings that you have about everything around you help form an attitude that builds success. With the right attitude, you can be strong enough to move mountains and make things happen for you. However, the same is true if you have the wrong attitude. Your wrong attitude towards things could also be detrimental to your success. At the end of the day, how you perceive things can make or break opportunities for you. 

Successful people may speak of hard work and perseverance, but having a good attitude is what will bring about true success in life. This is why it is important to constantly check on yourself and how you feel. Your feelings play a huge role in how you feel. To be able to create a bright future for yourself, you must learn to confront how you feel, including all your worries, about the past and the years ahead. 

How do you deal with hurtful emotions brought about by your past experiences? While some people may say that the secret to success is about forgetting about the past, there is something about your past that could push you forward. If only you could change your perspective of the past, then you can give yourself the opportunity to learn from it and move past it as well. Have you ever thought of your past experiences as a learning experience? It is fairly easy for people to look at their past as a weapon against the future. The losses and the mistakes they have had in the past have made them stronger individuals. Their failures have turned their hearts to stone. Sadly, this kind of approach keeps them from turning those experiences into life lessons. Instead, it has restricted them from growing far from what they are used to. 

A change in perspective would do the trick. No matter how good or bad the experience may be, it is always best to look at it as a learning experience. Do not allow the hurt and pain to become all too overwhelming. Let your past give you instructions on how to survive the future. Hopefully, the same experiences will increase your overall value. 

Perhaps one of the most difficult things about dealing with the past entails acceptance. Not all the decisions that you make turn out to be right. Some of them lead you directly to failure. Unless you learn to accept that there is nothing that you can change about your past, your feelings of remorse, regret and bitterness will only keep you from taking on new opportunities in the future. If you can position yourself to get a new perspective about how you can deal with the past, you can only expect things to get better. A dramatic change in the course of events in your life will unfold. Slowly, you will see how things can all be better for you. 

Where are you at the moment? How you perceive things in your life right now are the very thoughts that will bring you into the future. Remind yourself that your present is the gift of today that will lead you to the future. 

The past has given you the gift of experiences and memories. But the present gives you the opportunity to use the lessons you learned from the past to make wise decisions today. Everyone gets a chance to change the way they live their lives. Both the poor and the rich are given the same opportunity to redo their lives and improve it the way they want to. Time is a gift given to everyone. It is the kind of gift that does not favor anyone. Simply put, time challenges everyone this: it is present here and now, so what are you going to do about it?

How you decide to use the gift of time depends a lot on your attitude towards the situation. With the right kind of approach to a given situation, you can simply seize the day and give yourself the chance for a new beginning. 

The gift of change is one of the best things that the present can give you. What you decide to do with it is what will help build the future that you want for yourself. Your present could be the same as your past. Or you have the option to make it different. After all, the question is not about what happened in the past or what the future will be like. Rather, it is about a question of attitude and how you choose to deal with tomorrow. 

Wouldn’t it be nice if you had the power to see the future? Perhaps there is a reason why nobody has that power. Maybe if we had the ability to look into the future, people won’t feel the excitement of what’s to come. They won’t know how to dream anymore. Knowing the certainty of the future makes people forget about hoping and yearning about the possibilities that come before them. 

The lack of ability to see the future leaves everyone with one of the best gifts in this lifetime. It is the power of the imagination, which leads people to have the power to create. Your instincts will tell you what could happen if you choose this over that. There is no certainty to it, but it is the feeling that brings you closer to knowing the truth. 

The reward that comes with hard work and integrity is pretty simple. You get to experience life as it happens to you. At the same time, you also get to experience the beauty of waiting for tomorrow to unfold before you. The beginning of every journey brings about the hope that things will get better in time. 

If you know how to deal with your past, you will know how to live through your present, and eventually learn how to look forward to the future. Attitude will bring about unparalleled success.
