Men and Attitudes Equals Behaviors and Outcomes |

Men: Attitudes control male behavior and make self-fulfilling prophecies for men. For the Male of Today: From CyberParent |
Your outlooks and your attitudes produce your behaviors. Positive attitudes and expectations produce positive behavior while negative outlooks produce negative behaviors. We all perceive life selectively. This means we constantly filter out most of the sounds and scenes around us, allowing only a manageable amount through to our consciousness. Those perceptions that we allow ourselves then, are those that are consistent with our expectations and attitudes. In other words, men pretty much see what they expect to see, experience what they expect to experience, and achieve what they expect to achieve. Therefore, when you expect to fail, this often becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. But, if you expect to succeed, that also becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Henry Ford said, "If you think you can or you think you can't, you're right!" |
