Mary Kay on the importance of a positive attitude.
"There are two types of thinking - positive and negative. The positive thinker is an optimistic, faith-motivated person who habitually projects positive pictures and attitudes every single day, sending positive, creative thoughts into your world. These strong thought vibrations condition the surrounding world positively; and as result, a flow of positive outcomes is activated and positive achievements are manifested.
A good way to look at it is that it's either a boy or a girl - there is nothing else. When a negative thought comes to you, simply say, "Cancel, cancel,"and turn it into a positive one. Don't give voice to it; because if you give voice to a negative thought, you underline it, you underscore that negative thought. So just cancel it. Remember that every thought you think is either negative or positive."

How would you ct today if you were the most important person in your industry? How would you dress? How would you walk? How would you prioritize your time? Who would you speak to? What would you say?
What is preventing you from doing these things today? Nothing except your own expectations. You can stand confidently, walk confidently, speak and act confidently at any point in time. Confidence comes not only from where you've been. It also comes from where you expect to go. Expect the best and you'll be your best.
Sincerely act like a winner and you become a winner. Winners understand that their actions create their reality. How would you act if you were successful? Do it today. Understand that the actions come first and the success comes as a result. Act like a success, and before long you will be.
You may find it easier to ''cancel' out a negative though by replacing it with a positive one! It can be music, a verse, or an inspirational poem. I've included a few favorites...
