Part 4 attitude is everything

Your mind and your body are part of the same system. They influence each other. When you're happy, you look happy, you sound happy and you use happy words. Tyr to be miserable while you jump in the air and clap your hands, or try to be happy as youslouch in a chair and let your head droop. Your atti-tude controls your mind, and your mind delivers thebody language.

Attitudes set the quality and mood of your thoughts,your voice tone, your spoken words. Most importantly,they govern your facial and body language. Attitudesare like trays on which we serve ourselves up to otherpeople. Once your mind is set into a particular attitude,you have very little ongoing conscious control over thesignals your body sends out. Your body has a mind ofits own, and it will play out the patterns of behaviorassociated with whatever attitude you find yourselfexperiencing.
