"Our greatest freedom is the freedom to choose our attitude."Austrian Psychiatrist/Writer
1905 - 1997
I believe that everything in life is a choice. We choose how we get up in the morning. We choose how we go to work. We choose our attitudes. I believe we have little or no control over what happens to us. We can be in a car accident, be diagnosed with cancer or get fired from our job. We have no control over preventing these things from happening. The only thing we have control over is how we respond to what happens to us. We have 100% control of our attitude. As Frankl says, we have the freedom to choose our attitude.
What is your attitude to your life? Your art? What is your attitude to the people around you? Do you choose to be optimistic and positive? Or are you grouchy? Discouraged? Negative? Are you always finding fault with people and the world around you? Do continually make sarcastic comments and put people down? Or do you look for the good in people? Even the worst of people have some good in them.
As creative leaders we choose our attitudes. Choose today to be positive, dedicated and inspiring. Choose to find the silver lining in every dark cloud. Choose to be a better you. And then you will be a better artist.
