I'm presuming you mean changing your attitude for the better.

If you start off as, say, a negative person and you want to be more positive, you just have to slowly integrate actions and thoughts of the opposite of yourself into your life. What I mean by that is to start thinking and acting more positive.



Every time you sigh, scream, feel sad, or get angry (usually over completely irrational things - human nature) there are hours, days, years, you will never get back. I'm not saying you automatically have to become Ms. Happy. That can be tiresome for other people to endure - but you have to realize that you can either view a glass as either half full or half empty.



For me, I've always been a positive person. I think the way I project myself make me a more approachable person, because I'm confident, happy, and optimistic about things. If you need an attitude change, these are three traits you will learn to adapt. It all comes with time and experience.



Remember, the way you project yourself means the world.



Rock your time on this planet (cheesy, but true!) and always know there is no one quite like you.

The mere fact that you realize that you need to change your attitude means that you are on your way to changing it. Allocate a part of your time each day to evaluate your thoughts, attitudes and actions for the day and if some of them were not up to scratch then sort of remind yourself that if you are confronted with such a situations again then you must be mindful to be better.



Understanding yourself is also important. Think about - why do I want what I want - why do I get upset when this happens - why do I like or dislike such a person etc.



Your best friend is that person that can tell you your faults. If you cannot find such a person then when you see someone behaving wrongly then remind yourself never to behave like that.



I have helped developing this web site that deals with understanding oneself. Follow the links for different articles and perhaps it would help. Best of luck.

If you learn why your attitude needs changing, it's easy to make those changes for real.



For example, I grew up in a very racist household, but as I matured, I realized those attitudes of my family were very closeminded and unfair to a whole race of people. My attitude changed because I learned better. It's taking a lot of work, but slowly I'm changing some of my families attitudes too.

Read "Anger Management" (a book) by Mitch Messer from the Anger Clinic in Chicago, and you will understand what attitude really is and how to work with it, not change it. He is a phenomenal person and writer, and you will learn a lot by reading what he has to say.
