Do you like having Negative Neds and Debby Downers around you?
Chances are high that you don’t.
And as a leader it is especially important to negate the negativity because it spreads. And your attitude spreads – and so yours needs to be the one that you want to be spreading!
Here are three strategies specifically for you as a leader to consider:

Influence Their Attitude
Inoculate Yourself
•Read things that inspire you.
•Watch uplifting movies.
•Spend time with positive people.
•Practice looking for the good in situations.
•Create a gratitude journal
