Attitude


Main Verse:  Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men Colossians 3:23 (AMP)
Have you ever heard the words “It your attitude not your aptitude that determines your altitude” It was first said by Zig Ziglar an American Authour, motivational speaker and sales man.

However around AD 80 Paul encouraged the Colossians to work heartily and to do their best at whatever they were given to do. You see ladies being smart, bright or intelligent with a bad attitude will not take you very far. Being a Christian with a bad attitude will not guarantee you a promotion either. As such it is very important to maintain the right attitude. James Caan, Serial Entrepreneur and Investor in People with Passion stated that “To be successful in any area in life you need to have the right attitude, which means you have to approach any task or job with determination, tenacity and above all plenty of enthusiasm.”

So this morning ladies, adopt a positive attitude, adopt an attitude that will please God. It may be a bit hard because of all the challenges an obstacles you’re facing. You might be working hard and your manager just never sees what you’re doing. Everyone might be getting a promotion and you are not but maintain a positive attitude at all time. James Caan in his article went further to say “it is important for people to have skills, training and experience but I have always been a huge believer in putting attitude above aptitude. You can come fully equipped for a role but without real enthusiasm the best skill-set will count for very little. You can train somebody and give them the tools but you can’t give them the right attitude.”

Have A God Filled Day Ladies.

Let’s Pray:

Father place in us a good attitude today, root out every spirit that complains, that is negative, tardy and lazy this morning. Instead Lord implant in us a positive attitude that does each task to the best of your abilities and that pleases you.

In Jesus Name

Amen.
