I am reading a book by John C. Maxwell called: The Difference Maker: Making Your Attitude Your Greatest Asset. I love this book because it is filled with so many quotes and stories of people who have overcome adversities and it is really inspiring. This book has helped me focus on my attitude and I realize that having a good attitude is not everything but it does make a difference. Maxwell does a great job making the reader feel inclined to make personal change and growth.
I wanted to share an excerpt about attitude out of this book:
It is the vanguard of your true self.
Its root is inward but its fruit is outward.
It is your best friend or worst enemy.
It is more honest and consistent about you than your words.
It is your outward look based on your past experiences.
It is what draws people to you or repels them.
It is never content until it is expressed.
It is the librarian of your past.
It is the speaker of your present.
It is the prophet of your future.
Very good. My favorite part is "It is the prophet of your future".
