On a Sunday evening in September 2019, Seraphine Ruligirwa-Kamara wrote about the importance of a positive attitude in achieving success.
According to Ruligirwa-Kamara, attitude is a composite of thoughts, feelings, and actions that can make all the difference in one's life. She notes that most organizations seek talent with good attitudes, beyond impressive qualifications and experience.
Attitude is often misunderstood, and its meaning and impact can vary from person to person. However, Ruligirwa-Kamara emphasizes that attitude is shaped by the media, other people, conditions, and circumstances around us.
She explains that attitude is like a dish, a mixture of various ingredients in specific quantities put together in a particular sequence. Our thoughts, feelings, and actions are all interconnected and influence our attitude.
Ruligirwa-Kamara delves into the thought part of attitude, explaining that the law of vibration decrees that nothing rests, and everything is in a constant state of movement - vibration. She notes that we have the ability to accept or reject any idea, and the main import is whether or not the idea is internalized.
When we internalize an idea, it is dumped straight into our subconscious mind, which is deductive and cannot reject any idea impressed upon it. The subconscious mind communicates through vibration, and when people connect with each other, their vibrations are in resonance.
Ruligirwa-Kamara emphasizes that the nature of the idea that is impressed upon our subconscious mind determines the emotion we express. If the idea is negative, we will express negative vibrations, while if it is positive, we will express positive vibrations.
She concludes that attitude is a composite of thoughts, feelings, and actions, and it is the vibration we are in, determined by the nature of the ideas we choose to internalize or emotionalize. When we shift our attitude, everything in our world shifts too.
