10. How do you find the activity?
What can you say about being Enthusiastic?

11. To be enthusiastic at work is about a mental state.
You need to make the decision to be enthusiastic.
Start by saying, “I will be an eager participant in
this project or task.”

12. Being enthusiastic and energetic are attitudes in
the workplace that can get you ahead. You cannot
get ahead without energy.

13. Efficient?
to be efficient means “performing or
functioning effectively with the least waste of time
and effort.” When you are effective, you are
producing the intended result. When you are
efficient you do it with the least waste of time and
effort. That means you are capable and
competent.

14. Excellence?
• Of the five attitudes in the workplace, this one
probably calls for you to give yourself some
pressure. A little pressure is good since it makes
you push yourself harder. Strive for excellence in
everything you do. Do not be contented with
good. Go for great.

15. • Exceed expectations by knowing good is
sometimes not good enough. Give everything
your utmost best. You will naturally see how this
becomes your career booster. When you strive
for excellence in everything you do, you quite
naturally surpass others in your work. That gets
you ahead.

16. Respect?
Respect is an attitude that develops through
mature and mutually enriching interpersonal
relationships. Moreover, respect is the attitude of
accepting others’ differences; you need respect in
order to coexist with others without conflict.
To respect someone is to put aside our differences.

17. It helps us avoid judging others for their individual
choices and opinions. To respect someone is to be
aware of a person’s individuality, and not to
demand that they change their opinions or
behaviors. Respectful people realize that everyone
has the right to choose to be who they really are.

18. You show respect when you do not judge someone
for their lifestyle or the way they approach a
situation, make decisions, or behave. You further
show respect for someone when you do not
complain about the way they are, or expect them
to be any other way.

19. Respect is the best way to show others that
we accept them in all of their individuality the way
they are and not otherwise.

20. Disposition?
We all have genetic predispositions that determine
our state of happiness, which is why some of us are
happier than others, but however good we are at
adapting to our circumstances, it’s our
circumstances that dictate how we feel about what
we deal with and that determines how happy we
are.

21. We’re all born with genetic predispositions of
course, but circumstances, our family and
environmental considerations also play their part in
determining a general state of happiness. There are
people who have happy dispositions and it’s those
dispositions that allow them to live their lives,
differently to the rest of us.
