Why Attitude is Everything in Business

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”- Zig Ziglar 

 

Being in business is not straight forward. You may feel on the top of the world one day, and the opposite another. So, having a positive attitude, in my eyes, has a huge impact on your work performance, relationships and everyone around you. 

 

The best thing about attitude is that we all have a choice in the matter. We can choose an inner dialogue of self-motivation and positivity, or we can choose one of negativity and reluctance. Which one do you choose? 

 

Your energy and attitude rubs off on others, including your clients, the suppliers you work with, your staff, and even your family and friends outside of your working environment. 

 

Maintaining a positive attitude can be infectious, leading to a happier business altogether! Think about when you experienced a positive attitude to a negative situation. How did the way the business, or person deal with the situation, and what impression did this leave?
