ATTITUDE

Image
An attitude is a hypothetical construct that represents an individual's degree of like or dislike for something. Attitudes are generally positive or negative views of a person, place, thing, or event— this is often referred to as the attitude object. People can also be conflicted or ambivalent toward an object, meaning that they simultaneously possess both positive and negative attitudes toward the item in question. Attitudes are judgments. They develop on the ABC model (affect, behavior, and  cognition ) [ 1 ] . The affective response is an  emotional  response that expresses an individual's degree of preference for an entity. The behavioral intention is a verbal indication or typical behavioral tendency of an individual. The cognitive response is a cognitive evaluation of the entity that constitutes an individual's beliefs about the object. []  Most attitudes are the result of either direct experience or  observational learning  from the environment.

Be always happy.

How to Stay Happy Always   1. Throw out nonessential numbers.  This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them, this is why you pay them. 2. Keep only cheerful friends…  The grouches pull you down. (Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches!) 3. Keep learning.  Learn more about the computer, art, history, gardening, whatever! Never let the brain get idle. “An idle mind is the devil’s workshop.” And the devil’s name is Alzheimer’s! 4. Enjoy the simple things. 5. Laugh often, long and loud.  Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and lots of time with him or her! 6. The tears happen.  Endure, grieve. Then go on. The only person who is with us our entire life is our self. LIVE while you are alive. Those who loved you but are gone will understand and applaud! 7. Surround yourself with what you love.  Whether it’s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies or whatever. Your home is your refuge. 8. Cheri
