5. Enumerate the things to be done in order to develop a positive attitude.

1. Treat your customer as you would like to be treated. This is the golden rule in all industries, but more so, in the
hospitality industry. Customers can be very exacting in their needs and you need to make sure that you are able to
predict their needs even before they ask for it.
2. Do the best you can and tell yourself the best has got to be good enough. This is a challenge that you should give
yourself on a daily basis. You know what you are capable of doing and with this, you know if you've done the
best you could. If things are not good enough, then you solicit assistance from your colleagues or improve on the
service or product you offer your guests. Other people may say that it is good enough, but the best critic is
yourself!
3. Things aren't as bad as you think they are. Do not worry too much on little things as these may be irrelevant or
inconsequential to the things at hand. As long as the guests, boss and colleagues are happy, you are on the right
path. Focus energy on your work.
4. Stay around positive people. If you surround yourself with positive people, you will be "charged" with positive
thoughts and this will show in the way that you work. People with "negative thoughts" will deplete the positive
thoughts in you and may reduce your effectiveness as a worker.
5. Think positive to reinforce your positive thoughts. Think positive. Thoughts and actions emanating from a
positive person will affect others positively. This is always very important for you to grow better as a person and
as an industry worker.

6. What is your  philosophy in life? Elaborate.

My philosophy on life is that you should live while you are alive and you should give
others that same privilege. We shouldn't judge people for the choices they make, because
we all make bad decisions. You should do what you want with your life, as long as it makes
you happy and causes no harm to others.
