Attitude, what the heck is it?
First, the person who asks or even writes the question must have lost his mind! Are you calling me one. Well, I won’t mind, really. In this big world with 6 billion people, I doubt it I might be the only one!

This post is long, has bunches of online tests links that you can do just in-case you haven’t watched your attitude yet.
“This man (women) has attitude problem”, when you hear that clearly and loudly from someone who is right next to you, how would you react, feel, take it in? What would be your response if you had the guts to talk back ? May be you are cool, you would probably just look-down on the floor, keep your mouth shut and then walk away.

Before I continue: Those who haven’t read billboards written here in this blog,  Here is a quick lines… I go through a church everyday to work. There is a Billboard there which brings a different message every month and I try to pick one or two to write about them here. Those quotes aren’t just fun to read, but they are inspiring, exhilarating, sometimes soothing, and guess what ? Well, most of them are those that I have never heard / read of.
In a world, where war still prevails, countries with their humans with no hopes for life and even daily bread and butter are in dreams only, and not surprisingly; in this same world where there are infinite riches and selfish, and egotistical humans who upon putting more than over 500 times their daily requirement of nutrients in their belly even early in the morning, walk taller then their full-height, then pushing and shoving their way through the crowd and reaching their destination - The Corporate Chair. Oh yes, many of them sure have watched their attitude or do they really need to or who are watching their attitude? - others are!
Do you ever wonder, who are most likely to watch their own behavior ? Do they even have the time for it ? Are our lives so complex that our mental state is exploded, feelings are shattered and values that parents taught us are automatically disposed in this crazy world without our knowledge ?

Do we give the blame of our BAD attitude to Excuse.
We often don’t ask questions to ourselves, do we ? Minds are filled with Gossips, Tabloids, News, TV, Videos Games, Internet, and Daily Chore at home… and you name it! And again there are the bitter tastes of our friendships, marriages, family relationships, our jobs and so on lingering and licking our brain all day long.
Life could have been simpler had we often watched our attitude. Could that be true ?
Perhaps for those who have less, don’t need to watch their attitude ? Less money and less to worry about. Have you ever watched your attitude ? Other’s are. But again, are they watching your attitude or their own attitude.

These days, many corporations don’t just hire a person for your accomplishments, they too watch your attitude even at the time of Interview. Do you have a bad attitude? Are you a team player ? Can you Imagine and Create something useful for the company ? Have you set your goals somewhere else and you haven’t found the football ? Attitude links with all other ingredients for one to be hired. Job might be handed to someone else perhaps you never watched your attitude in life, perhaps not even once.
No matter where you are headed in this life, unless you are willing to watch your own attitude, i.e. every single day, i.e. every single action you make, your life could be going where you didn’t wanted it to go.

Here are some useful resources to watch our attitudes online and let us thank that Billboard and the Church for such a great message it brings every month. If you ask me the question, “Do you watch yours?” I don’t know. I Try to. But it’s nearly impossible to watch it all the time. Ever heard of the word “Down-To-Earth Person”, I think that’s very rare to find in this world. I try to be one, but I think fail or I need someone to tell me that word! (LOL!!!)
Attitude is linked with so many other characters such as our behavior, personality, leadership quality, and so on. It’s like the root our life tree. Let’s not shake it so much that all branches will break and all leaves will be gone.
Enough about chattering on the topic, lets take a few tests online.

Once you get the tests done, just comeback and share your experience with others. (All these links will open in a new window, so you can have this page intact on your browser)
