5. Today's tweets will be generally about attitude but from next episode #TheSuitableHelp
6. We'll look at some of the attitudes we need to nourish to succeed not just in marriage but in our personal lives. #TheSuitableHelp
7. The scripture says, there's a way that seems right before a man but it leads to destruction. #TheSuitableHelp
8. When we quite fighting to do marriage our own way, then God endows us with the power to do it His own way. #TheSuitableHelp
9. Maintaining a positive attitude is very challenging but if the objective is to have a marriage that honours God, #TheSuitableHelp
10. then, it is worth the effort that goes into building the life that will produce the attitude. #TheSuitableHelp
11. Attitude is a product of thoughts. Overtime in marriages people develop thought patterns based on past experiences with their spouses. #TheSuitableHelp
12. This pattern reflects in their unpremeditated negative responses..... #TheSuitableHelp
13. ..... they have in wait for anticipated negative actions from their spouses. #TheSuitableHelp
14. Such experiences could be having to deal with being ignored. #TheSuitableHelp
15. Negative attitudes can also develop from criticism and condemnation. It can also come from unfulfilled expectations. #TheSuitableHelp
16. In dealing with negative attitude, the first thing to note is that you're responsible for your attitude. #TheSuitableHelp
17. The next key is emphasizing the positives you believe about yourself, that way you can eliminate negative thoughts. #TheSuitableHelp
18. We can't avoid finding ourselves in negative situations but we can try as much as possible to eliminate negative thoughts from it. #TheSuitableHelp
19. Our minds sometimes presents thoughts in the form of the pages of a book, #TheSuitableHelp
20. You may not be able to erase what's printed on it but you have the power to flip to another page that interest you. #TheSuitableHelp
21. Always flip to a positive thought when a negative one comes to you, you have the power to do it. #TheSuitableHelp
22. Do you know that we exert too many energy musing and getting all worked up over things beyond our control? #TheSuitableHelp
23. Like a delay in traffic, disruption caused by the rain, power outage, a child's inability to develop fast, flight delay. #TheSuitableHelp
24. If we could channel that energy into some positive use, those periods will become very profitable. #TheSuitableHelp
25. But we find it hard to focus on something positive because we've been overtaken by so much negative emotions. #TheSuitableHelp
26. Always remember each energy given to things you can't control robs you of the gains from things within your power. #TheSuitableHelp
27. When next you find yourself in such situation, get out a book and read; design a plan for your next project. #TheSuitableHelp
28. Write a pending article; draft a program in the area of your passion. Have a handy journal for such moments. #TheSuitableHelp
29. You'll really be surprised at how much you can gain from those time you felt were being wasted. #TheSuitableHelp
30. Life will continually drop negative situations at your feet but you can choose how you react to them. #TheSuitableHelp
31. Rather than waste energy and your image reacting negatively, learn to turn a negative situation into a positive one. #TheSuitableHelp
32. You can do this by asking the right questions in a wrong situation. #TheSuitableHelp
33. What does God want me to pick from this event? How can I avoid this happening again?
34. Don’t let the actions of your spouse or circumstances turn you to the dark side of the entire family. #TheSuitableHelp
