Attitude

Attitude! Mostly thrown around with irreverence as a semi-sin, as part of a baggage that has to be dealt with. While it is okay to possess attitude, somehow it is difficult to deal with it. A plain case of dichotomy. If attitude is wrong, what about positive attitude? A subject favoured by motivational speakers.

Ultimately, what is attitude? It is a sort of spunk, the bend of mind, the power of resilience, the ability to stay calm in stressful situations or a mix of all. It’s ingrained in all of us. It’s the charm that allows us to weave magic in difficult situations. However, attitude is often garbed as a baggage. Something negative, that needs to be discarded with.

Isn’t it high time, we accepted the strength of attitude and allowed it to flourish in all of us? After all, attitude is a component of right of speech and expression. It’s the ability to stand for yourself when everyone else is busy cowing you down. When people around you are hell bent to qualify you as a moron that you are not, attitude is the singular quality to support yourself. In a positive way, it’s the ability to love and nourish yourself, before you do it for others.
