>> WILKINSON: Good afternoon, everyone. My name is John Wilkinson, and I’m here to
talk to you a little bit about positive mental attitude and goal setting, the differences
between success and failure. I work for Morrison Group. Morrison group, obviously was founded
to provide customized training and development to organizations of all types, with a focus
on life skills, motivational skills, and vocational skills, and the founding partner is Kevin
L. Morrison.
Positive mental attitude and goal setting, along with other health care professionals,
we help facilitate 22 classes annually, such classes as PCT, mental health informational
specialists, registered nurse, CNA, medical billing. I’m sure some of you are familiar
with these. They’re just a few positions offered to these clients at the workplace
in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
We have revised our curriculum of soft skills to address the health care audience, particularly
in adding goal setting as a focus. Our clients and the community need teachers, leaders specialists
that care and can identify with their current state or situation, professionals that focus
on the improvement and the future success. When they don’t see it, we make it our business
to see it, because everyone has potential.
Our curriculum and method of training help clients to establish or reestablish a foundation
of self worth. Individuals recognize their value and self worth, with the introduction
of positive mental attitude. From unemployment, underemployment, to being laid off or inadequate
training, clients have felt and experienced the worst of our socioeconomic pressures.
People face negatives every day and find very little to smile about. The discussion of these
aspects in a shared setting creates a bond and demonstrates you’re not alone.
A positive mental attitude is a choice. You can choose to stay where you are or you can
choose to do something about it. If you want different results you have to do something
different. Our author, Napoleon Hill, said “Keep your mind on the things you want and
off the things you don’t want.” A positive mental attitude says we have the power to
redirect our thinking. We help clients to find the fire or motivation within by recognizing
their strengths through goal setting. We all have strengths. We need to set goals. We need
to write goals down. We need to develop strategies to accomplish these goals.
Studies have shown that 40% of getting a job is attitude. Clients are taught to cultivate
the very best every day. I kind of missed something there, but that’s okay. Positive
attitude and goal setting, together, helps the clients to write it down, focus on goals,
set goals, reminders, and benchmark dates for success. Positive mental attitude training
is the process by which you break the habit of responding negatively to a situation and
developing a new habit of a positive reaction. The point; developing, maintaining and improving
your attitude requires training, practice, hourly, daily, and weekly effort, learn it,
practice it, master it, excel in it. In the health-care setting or position, these key
tools are priceless. Thank you.
