Do an Attitude Push-up today

Walking around with a "good attitude" on Thursdays or Fridays is easy…but what about Mondays? (Especially summer Mondays!)
Research from the MySalesDay Advanced Data, Insights and Forensics Department posits that Mondays represent 20% of your workweek. So….Mondays deserve at least 20% of your productivity. (Summer Fridays put pressure on what you can stuff into four days).
Don’t give away a huge chunk of potential productivity before lunch on Monday.

Today, do ONE Attitude Push-up!
…huh?…
As it sounds, an Attitude Push-up is a short burst of physical exertion that helps you switch on your positive disposition! Doing an AP commits you to having a good attitude!
Even if you were at the gym at 6am, get on the floor into a push-up position. Yes…now.
On the way down, state proudly, "Nothing’s stopping me today." Seriously…say it.
On the way up, proclaim, "I am strong, and I’ll be positive all day."
Your AP needs to include these verbal proclamations to cement your decision to be positive.
Oomph
There are no limits to where a strong, good attitude can take you.
And apparently, there aren’t any limits to push-ups, either.
Watch this (hilarious) 2-minute tutorial on how to train for a no-hands push-up, and your bad attitude will disappear.
Tomorrow you’ll easily do two APs, and then soon, you’ll be ready for a no-hands push-up.
Quote of the day
Ability is what you’re capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.
