Reflection: I like to talk about painting with words, and the words we use in our everyday speech truly reflect our attitude. If we talk about gloom and doom, we will be constantly under a dark cloud. It stands to reason, that if we fill our language with words of hope and happiness, we’ll enjoy a sunshine day, regardless of what the weather man may have predicted. Attitude can determine the way you approach life. 10% of life is what happens and 90% is how you react to it.

Attitude

"A settled way of thinking or feeling about someone or something, typically one that is reflected in a person's behavior."

• Boldness
• Arrogance
• Defiance
• Assertiveness

Attitude can vary from situation and person. People that usually have positive situations, like completing a goal, winning a prize, helping, etc, tend to more of a confident and optimistic attitude toward everyday life.

Others that encounter unlucky situations, like receiving a parking ticket, losing a game, or scoring low on a test, tend to have a more negative attitude.
