The shloka I provided is not from any specific classical scripture like the Bhagavad Gita or the Vedas but is a popular verse in Sanskrit literature, often attributed to moral teachings found in texts like *Chanakya Niti* or similar works. It reflects on the contrast between the behavior of virtuous and wicked individuals in society.

If you're specifically looking for a verse from a major scripture like the Bhagavad Gita or Upanishads on attitude and behavior, here is another relevant one:

**यद्यदाचरति श्रेष्ठस्तत्तदेवेतरो जनः।
स यत्प्रमाणं कुरुते लोकस्तदनुवर्तते।।**

*Transliteration:*
Yad yad ācarati śreṣṭhas tat tad evetaro janaḥ
Sa yat pramāṇaṁ kurute lokas tad anuvartate.

*Translation:*
Whatever a great person does, others imitate. Whatever standard they set, the world follows.

This verse is from the *Bhagavad Gita* (Chapter 3, Verse 21) and highlights the importance of setting a positive example through one's behavior and attitude, as others are likely to follow the lead of respected individuals.
