If someone who has been tortured in Auschwitz and has been at the gates of death is able to recognize that he is free to choose his attitude, it is possible to think that we can all do it.

“Cultivate your attitude assiduously,” said Patanjali, founder of modern yoga. A healthy attitude is a valuable commodity that must be earned.

We often don’t see that values and attitudes can be chosen and we let them choose us. but the attitude it’s not something that happens; it can be cultivated and enhanced.

Everyone has the right to choose their attitude and to decide what it will entail to adopt it. Whether opt for healthy attitudes and consciously cultivated, life takes on a different light, relationships become more joyful and one feels fuller.
