A few months ago, I spoke at the California Chamber of Commerce Ambassador Rally held at the Fender Center in Corona, CA. The Corona Chamber of Commerce hosted the event, and it was truly an honor to be part of such a well-planned gathering.

Since the topic was Corona ROCKS, I was excited to be part of the event. After all, I always wanted to be a rock star…or a solid gold dancer at the very least. My keynote presentation was centered on the theme of the event and was entitled, “Does Your Attitude ROCK?”

Leadership guru John Maxwell often speaks about the power of attitude and has even written a book entitled Attitude 101. Maxwell doesn’t use many words to talk about a person’s attitude, however, part of what he says does describe the power of being an upside thinker.

I wasn’t always an upside thinker. After years of hard work and research, I evolved. Or, in the words of Patti La Belle, “I Got a New Attitude. I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes. Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do. I tidied up my point of view. I got a new attitude!”

So, what is your “attitude”? Attitude is your approach to life, your outlook, your manner, your way of thinking or behaving…it’s the way you view your personal and professional challenges. And, your attitude enters the room before you do.

What you do and who you are oozes out of you because we all stand for something.

My ATTITUDE is –
Action
Taken
To
Inspire
Ton’s of
Upside
Designing-Your-Destiny
Energy

I desire to inspire others to live their Extraordinary. I approach my life in an upside manner, believing in unlimited possibilities, even as recent events on Wall Street are rocking people to their core.

I live to design my own destiny and help others design theirs.

That’s what my attitude is all about. What does yours say? Does it ROCK?
