THE BIG WORD: ATTITUDE

Well, I feel that the language camp is indeed an "eye-opener" for many of us. We get to know how people work, what kind of attitude they have, and what kind of leader they are. In short, we see a lot of things closer and deeper.

I just want to highlight one point here: Whatever that we do, it is our attitude that counts the most. There is a saying like this: OUR ATTiTUDE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OUR APTITUDE. There are many talented and gifted people out there who are not successful in their lives. The reason is simple. They may know a lot of things but their attitude sucks. One of the major differences between those who have a form of success and those who truly win in every area of life is their attitude. If you have a positive attitude, you will not let circumstances take you captive and control your life, but you will use trials and troubles to yield the fruit of success. Someone who has a positive attitude and is able to "think big" will never under the circumstances but will always on top of them. A person with character and positive attitude will turn every adversity into opportunity. When he encounters problems, he will not complain or point fingers at anyone. He knows that problems are meant to be solved and he will see solutions more than the problems.

I believe we can produce a totally different result (a better one of course) in the next camp if we are able to show positive attitude during the camp. Remember this, we have a lot of talented people in our TESL class. However, nothing is more common than unsuccessful men/women with talent.

Do you have anything to say?
