Breaking the world's control over your emotions

[Guest guest]

The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up. 

- Maxwell, author and public speaker

Breaking the world's control over your emotionsA lot in our past can be chalked up to inexperience, youth, and happenstance. But now, as an adult, you must claim your choices and their consequences as your own. Negative attitudes affect your life by creating cynicism, a pessimistic outlook, and often a lack of confidence. Take note of the ways you are escaping responsibility for your attitude. Do you continually blame situations, friends and family, or life in general for your poor mindset? The world has influence, without a doubt, but growing into a mature person means taking control of your emotions and attitude. Own them!
