John Maxwell on The Six Steps of Attitude Change

Submitted by James Higginbotham on March 31, 2009 – 5:03 amOne Comment

We all struggle as leaders with attitude issues. We may have a bad attitude toward a person, toward something personal in our life, or toward volunteering in general. Rindy Walton posted an article inspired from John Maxwell’s book Developing the Leader Within You. It includes the six steps of attitude change:

The Six Stages of Attitude Change

  1. Identify problem feelings
  2. Identify problem behaviors–what actions result in negative feelings?
  3. Identify problem thinking
  4. Identify right thinking–what is the thinking that is right and what you desire?
  5. Make a public commitment to right thinking–public commitment becomes powerful commitment
  6. Develop a plan for right thinking
    • written definition of right thinking
    • a way to measure progress
    • a daily measuring of progress
    • a person to whom you are accountable
    • a daily diet of self-help materials
    • associating with right-thinking people
