Surroundings is one of the major causes for a person to develop own personal attitude. If a person is surrounded by negative attitude people, he will slowly slip into the same category regardless of his self motivation. Of course, he can always stay positive, but he has to put lot of energy to overcome the negative aura. It is very easy to create a positive environment.
- Positive atmosphere. Avoid negative attitude people and create a positive environment by hanging out with positive attitude people.
- Leave the complainer. Stay away from people who constantly complain.
- Choose your favorites. Create a lofty goal and share with your friends and acquaintances. On one hand, a negative person immediately ridicules your goal and says it is impossible to reach it. On the other hand, a positive person will admire your thoughts and offers support.
- Avoid profanity. In few industries, profanity is considered to be a fashion, especially among the field personnel. Do not use filthy language, this will make you less popular, which will result in lower self esteem, and thus negative attitude.
Stay tuned for rest of the post. Next step is my favorite: ACT NOW.

The lecture was fascinating, and part of the discussion was the current model for stem cell research. Currently we have two types of stem cells which are available for study: embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). As is well known, embryonic stem cells are derived from fertilized embryos that are allowed to multiply briefly before the cells are harvested. iPSCs are precursor cells found in adults, which are then chemically treated to revert them back to a stem cell."

Erin Pavlina presents Are You Afraid to Be Rich? posted at Erin Pavlina's Blog, saying, "Many years ago I had this odd mentality about money and wealth.

I assumed that rich people were conniving miscreants who took advantage of others. I assumed that corporations were evil, because it seemed to me like they always used clever marketing and subliminal advertising to coerce people into buying their products. Rich people who inherited their wealth seemed lazy to me."
Will Edwards presents The Death of Time Management posted at Inspiration, saying, "There is no such thing as Time Management - it is a complete misnomer! You simply cannot manage time.
