Thoughts About Attitude

My Definition:

Attitude ~ The way you decide to feel about something

Disclaimer~ I’m not perfect.

Joking for decades that I need a new attitude, I’ve decided to explore being specific about my attitudes. I have many, as we all do. 

Demeanor, a synonym of attitude, is different to me in that it is a demonstration physically and/or verbally how I feel about someone or something.  My attitude need only to exist in my mind. Acting it out isn’t necessary for me to have that (whatever) attitude.

Combining the two words, I feel, encourages me to adjust my attitude in general. 

As I age, I’ve become fascinated with a grouchy attitude that has emerged, (for no reason I know of). 

It has always bothered me when a person creates unnecessary drama by doing something wrong when doing the thing right is faster and easier. Because I felt like it! Are empty words to me. 

If I explain something, then being told later on the same thing as if it is new information, grates at my nerves. I don’t know how some people do that regularly. Forgetting only goes so far. 

Another thing that bothers me is being treated as if I’m stupid. I do miss things sometimes. It is not the end of the world. 

Ten minutes under a maple tree can soothe a grouchy attitude.
