7 Destructive Attitudes that may be holding you back

7 Destructive Attitudes that may be holding you back

By Jeff Scott

Are you stuck in survival mode?

Do you keep hitting the same emotional walls, burnout, doubt, and frustration, no matter how hard you push forward?

You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re likely just carrying a few destructive attitudes you don’t even realize you have.

In "7 Destructive Attitudes that May Be Holding You Back," speaker and trainer Jeff Scott pulls back the curtain on the 7 attitudes that have become so normalized in our society today that most people don't consider them beliefs, ways of thinking, or attitudes. These 7 destructive attitudes are considered personality traits by many, not even considering the possibility that they are simply beliefs that can be changed. Instead, most people march on, sabotaging their success, their peace, and their purpose, and most will never know they even have them.

Jeff Scott breaks each attitude section into 4 distinct parts:

1) A description of the attitude and the attributes associated with it.

2) Both current and future effects of the attitude, if not addressed.

3) The "Fix" in a practical step-by-step solution

4) Simple things you can do to keep from falling back into the same behavior or way of thinking.
