Where do Beliefs, Values, and Attitudes come from?
People don’t start their lives with beliefs, values, or attitudes. They develop over time as a result of their experiences and external influences. For example, someone who grew up in an abusive household may be more likely to have developed negative views about marriage. But, someone who grew up watching his parents work hard at their jobs may have developed positive views about work ethic. These are two examples of many that illustrate how beliefs, values, and attitudes are shaped by experience. The good news is that people also have a great deal of control over how they shape these internal factors. This means that if you want to make changes in your life, all it takes is some effort on your part! It’s not easy, but it can be done.
What is Attitude? Impact of Beliefs And Values on Attitude
It’s no secret that beliefs and values have an impact on our attitudes, but how do they do it? The reason beliefs and values have such an effect on attitudes may be because attitudes are generally based on other beliefs. We all have certain beliefs about the world around us that shape how we view people, places, and things in our lives, including your company or brand.
Our values and beliefs shape our attitudes in more ways than we may realize. As our beliefs can guide us through life and influence how we look at the world around us. Our values may also affect how we interact with others, which in turn impacts our attitude. There’s a strong correlation between the values we hold and the attitude that follows. It’s very difficult to hold certain beliefs without developing an attitude that aligns with them.
