A Good Attitude Is Good for Business

June 28, 2014 by Sylvia Scott Leave a Comment

A Good Attitude Is Good for Business

A Good Attitude Makes for a Recipe of Success

A Good Attitude is Good for Business

A good attitude will take you a long way in changing the outlook of any situation you encounter in life. Creating a business while in high school takes a good attitude no matter what happens. In my experience, high school girls have a tough time developing and keeping a good attitude. There is competition for group acceptance and everyday interactions. Losing a boyfriend, a class election, or dealing with a difficult teacher can drag any girl down. 

I wish I had learned in high school about these steps I am going to share with you. Using them would have helped me on the path towards a good attitude. I would have gone ahead and started the business I envisioned. The steps would have helped me manage a lot of negative events and people along the way.

 

Four Steps to Impact How You Start and Operate Your Business

A grateful attitude.

In every event, whether it is good or bad, there is a lesson to be learned. The people I know with a grateful attitude keep their minds free of negativity. They are clear to find opportunities to change the situation, alleviate it for the future, or accept it and move on to keep going.

Exercise.

There are a ton of good reasons to exercise. Physical activities that require concentration will keep the mind off negative situations. For some of you, exercise will be in your after school team sports. If you do not like team sports, swimming, dancing or gymnastics may be perfect for you. Outdoor activities like downhill skiing, ice-skating, tennis, and golf are always great to clear the mind of junk. Most important are the exercises that require focus. They usually move you into a better frame of mind because you are getting your head clear.

Fake it till you make it or act as if. 

In other words, smile and act as if you are on the upside rather than the downside. When you fake it till you make it you may find you feel better about yourself and the circumstances. It will also give other people the impression you are not bothered about the problem. You may become a role model for a future young female entrepreneur. Consider how you feel when you smile rather than when you have a scowl on your face.

Surround yourself with positive people and avoid the toxic ones.

This is not as easy as it sounds. When a teacher, classmate, or relative creates a toxic environment it may not be possible to cut the person out of your life. One way to handle someone’s toxic attitude is not to take anything personal. Make sure you have plenty of time away from them.  Spend as much time as possible with positive people. You will want to spend time with young female entrepreneurs.  They will want to see your business vision come to fruition. More experienced ones may want to mentor you. They will understand the challenges of being a young entrepreneur in high school.

 

I encourage you to make these four steps a habit. You want to be the one to define your life. Only you know how much your attitude is worth.

We would love for you to share with us how a good attitude has made a difference for you. Perhaps your attitude was not positive at the time and you learned from it. Leave us your comments on our blog or send an email to hello@girlsceoconnection.com.

Gabbie is a 19-year-old social media creator and entrepreneur from Windsor, Colorado, who is using her creative passions for photography, videography, writing, and digital design to uplift others. At 16, she wanted to keep busy during the Pandemic, so she started posting her content and writing on social media. This side hobby became Gracefully Gabbie, and she has been absolutely blessed with the opportunity to be working with brands like QDOBA, Zulily, and more to help promote their products. Gracefully Gabbie has a branch called Lucky Reads, which is a bookstagram where she writes book reviews and works with authors to help share their books with more readers.
 
About a year into working in the social media field, Gabbie opened a sticker business named Gracefully Gabbie’s Gifts (Now GabbiesGracefulGifts on Etsy). She has had her stickers featured in her Windsor Lake Coffee, and is working on expanding to bookmarks soon.
