Attitude makes a big transformation in our life. A negative attitude is like a flat tire. You can’t go anywhere until you change it. It is a perception in one way: how we prospect ourselves, and others that we come across. Such perception may sometimes foil us from what we wishing to get outside ourselves and see things, or learn from others.
Right or positive attitude helps us to feel that each and every person we meet in our lives has the latent to teach us something. But there are few people to whom you can’t say anything. The question we must ask ourselves is: Do I approach a person with a plea to learn from them? The fact is sometimes we learn from improbable people. So everyone has something to share and something to teach us. But it happens only if we have the right attitude.
“You talent determines what you can do.
Your motivation determines how much you are willing to do. Your attitude determines how well you so it”
What kind of attitude will you have to learn from others?
There are few people who feel that no one can teach them anything. It is conceited attitude. That ignorance is the greatest enemy of teach ability. However, that really has little to do with teach ability. Some highly educated and highly successful people do not wish to hear the suggestions or opinions of anyone else. Some people think they know it all. Such people don’t realize how much they are hurting themselves.
The reality is that no one is too old, too smart, or too successful to learn something new. The only thing that can come between a person and the ability to learn and improve is a bad attitude.
People, who realize they have room to grow, learn from many people. That is usually a good thing. ‘everyone can teach me something’ is a right attitude. However, the people who learn the most aren’t necessarily the ones who spend time with the smartest people. They are the ones with a teachable attitude. Each and every person has something to share – it may be a lesson learned or a thought or a life experience. We just need to be keen to learn.
In fact, often people teach us things when they don’t intend to do so. Ask any parents and you will find out that they learned things from their children – even when their kids were infants incapable of communicating a single word. The only time that people can’t teach us is when we are unwilling to learn. So develop the attitude to learn and improve you.
