“Attitude!” is one thing that we can control and maintain to live our best life. Is this easy? Never. In this third book of mine we gather the tools on how to recognize the joy robbers, step out of the way of energy drainers, choose our view, care for ourselves and be good to get good. This book was my hardest to complete as my normally good attitude was tested during the process. I have to thank those who tested me, for this book would not have made me dig deeper to find and keep my best “Attitude!” Excerpt from Chapter One “The best thing about attitude is that is has an equal playing field. No matter how tall or small, young or old, rich or poor we are, we all choose our attitude daily. What attitude we choose is the key to the life we live. A life with a great attitude lived daily, goes into a life lived well for a week, a month or for a lifetime. If attitude is always your choice, free and controllable, why not choose the best for yourself? Here’s how.” It is a utlized resource in Workforce Development programs, career centers, youth programs, JobCorps and military transition.
