Answer 2

One way is to focus on the goals.

You want to improve yourself? How? What needs improving? Make a list, a self-assessment. Separate the things you can do from the things you have little control over. I can change my hair color (from gray to brown) and take some pills or get transplants for the thin or balding spots, but I can't go from 5'9" to 6'4" (which would make my weight go from overweight to normal on the charts, besides make me look tall because I always wanted to be tall). I've stopped growing up, but I can take steps to stop growing out.

You want a positive attitude? Why? What is wrong with your attitude now? This can be attacked in a couple of directions. One direction is what I call 'tell a lie until you believe it'. It involves a daily practice of smiling to the mirror (and getting it over with) and forcefully and passionately telling yourself things like "Its going to be a GREAT day and I'm going to be GREAT in it." Another direction is what I call applying the Golden Rule ('do unto others as you would have others do unto you')--then don't just be polite, be compassionately kind when you encounter others. Don't just open a door for a lady because it is a quaint old custom, but cheerfully grab the door and merrily say "Please, let me get that" and honestly smile. If you step in before someone on the elevator, put your hand on the safety recess bar, smile, look them in the eye, and ask as if they were close old friends (even if they are strangers or enemies), "Which floor?" before you push the button for them.

On the one hand you can say it with hopes that maybe you'll do it. On the other hand you can apply interest in the other person and energy, then simply do those kind and courteous things that make civil life civil. As for the personal improvements, start small, stay steady, and watch for steps and stages of accomplishment, the recognition of which will add to your positive attitude. Good luck.

Answer 3

I went through a real tough time in the mid-90's. I decided to take some time to work on myself and took up cycling, blues guitar, slept at least 8 hours a night, improved my diet and took vitamin supplements. Six months later, I was in the best shape of my life and had a much better outlook on things. A guy named Andrew Weil has a book out called "8 Weeks to Optimum Health", and Phil McGraw (I know, sounds stupid, but it's actually a helpful book) has one called "Life Strategies" that can help you figure our what you can do to change your attitude for the better. Best wishes.

Answer 4

One Step at a time -- set small goals -- completing an assignment on time, getting the lawn mowed, going out to get oneself a walk in the park -- and then build up from there

Set your goals for both the SHORT TERM (next 24-48 hours) and also for other time frames (months-years-decade from now). WORK towards those goals -- even if you have to outline steps to reach them.

Answer 5

1. Prayer of serenity.
2a. Remove the word HATE from your vocabulary.
2b. Try to understand people you hate - it's hard to hate someone you understand.
3. Don't whine - DO SOMETHING to fix the problem (apologies to the ladies who may prefer to empathise).
4. Be prepared to give & receive feedback. Honest dialog.
5. If you can't win an argument, be gracious in defeat.

My (software designer) job went to India in 1997, 2001 & 2004 & I used these techniques. Life is not necissarily easier. But I do cope. I now have a better job than I did in 1997 :-)
