Bob Proctor on Attitude: How Thoughts, Feelings and Actions Shape Results

How would you like a guaranteed, one hundred percent guaranteed way of winning at anything in life?

Well, you know, I can give it to you.

And it's all wrapped up in a word. Earl Nightingale said it was the most important word in the English language or any other language as far as that goes, and it's attitude.

Do you know, I don't think most people really understand what attitude is.

Now, I have learned it, and I've learned it well because I had one of the greatest teachers in the world teach it to me, and that was Earl Nightingale.

I spent five years working with him. It was just a wonderful experience.

I'm going to put a drawing up here, and I want you to pay real close attention to this drawing.

We'll let this drawing represent you.

Now, the big part of the drawing is your mind, and the bottom part, of course, is the body.

But we're going to take the mind, and we're going to break it into, um, two parts.

We'll say the top half is the conscious mind and the bottom half is the subconscious mind.

And of course, the instrument that does all the work is the body.

Attitude takes in all three parts. Now, let's really get into this and pay attention.

If you watch this a thousand times, I guarantee you your attitude will always be pretty good, and that's really what you want.

So let's stop and think. There is an absolute power flowing to and through us.

This power can be photographed. It's pure, unadulterated spirit.

It's flowing into our conscious mind, and we create thoughts.

We literally create them, or we can pick them up from outside sources.

I choose to pick my own, choose my own thoughts.

Now, when you entertain thoughts, you do two things with them.

You impress them upon your subconscious, but you also send those thoughts out into the world.

That's right. You can pick up another person's thoughts.

And the thoughts that you impress turn into feelings.

Now, those feelings are not only affecting the body, they're expressed out into the world.

So you send your feelings out into the world.

If another person's feeling bad and you're with them, you'll pick it up.

Now, what's impressed upon the body is expressed.

The body moves into action and produces the results.

So let's take a look here.

One, two, three. Your thought is your position as bearing as indicating thoughts, feelings, and actions.

It's not just the way you think. It's not just the way you feel.

It's not just the way you act. It's the composite of all three.

Your thoughts cause your feelings. Your feelings are expressed in actions, and it's that expression that dictates results.

Do you know your attitude determines what you attract to you?

I don't care what it's about. You can blame other people.

You can blame conditions or circumstance.

You can blame the government.

It won't do you any good. Until you fully understand that your life is a reflection of your attitude, you're going to have a problem.

Pick the right attitude. Choose good thoughts.

Turn them into good feelings. Have good actions.

You're going to express that. That's what the world will send back to you.

Attitude is our positioner bearing as indicating thoughts, feelings, and action.

Watch this often, and then compare it in life.

You'll find out it works like unadulterated magic.

This is Bob Proctor. Thanks.
