Having a good attitude, as defined on Google, means “being optimistic about situations, interactions, and yourself. People with positive attitudes remain hopeful and see the best even in difficult situations. Apr 29, 2012.”
Some examples of having a good attitude are: “Being happy even when you have little. Having a good time even when you are losing. Being happy for someone else’s success. Having a positive future vision, no matter how bad your current circumstances. Jul 5, 2018.”
The crucial point about having a good attitude is that it is strongly associated with experiencing happiness and success in life; and it is not an attribute that you are necessarily born with. If you don’t think you currently have a good attitude, this is a condition you have the power to change. You can choose to have a good attitude by making changes in your life and working at changing your attitudes.
