Attitude is Everything by Keith Harrell Attitude is everything by Keith Harrell is a book that hooks you totally and immerses you into the power of a positive attitude. One of the best things we can do for ourselves is to embrace an amazing attitude. And here's the thing, we focus so much on our physical attributes, the latest fashion and pay less attention to our attitude but our attitude is the measure of how amazing our life can truly become. Attitude is everything takes the audience through ten lessons using the personal story of Keith and so many other people. When Keith found out that he wouldn't be drafted to the NBA after being such a fantastic team captain and leader - his dreams were shattered and he understood that all his plans wouldn't remain the same. But then, after feeling like a loser for a short while, he understood that he was just breaking even with life and had adopted the attitude of a loser. You see most of the time we can adopt negative attitude without knowing because of what we have faced, shattered dreams, pain, or tragedy. But then, if you don't take control of your life, you'll let life control you. Attitude is everything is a book that tells us that even though there's are so many things outside of our control, how we decide to react and act is totally up to us. We have control over our attitude. Total control over it. It's totally our decision to be happy. It's totally our decision to smile. And the best thing about a purposeful life is always choosing the best attitude. We have to be positive thinking people who always see the "good" in life. Somehow, life always rewards the optimist and always feel bitter for the pessimist. The optimist is grateful and appreciates the little things of life and sees it as a step to fulfilling his purpose while the optimist sees life as a big mess and overtly complains everytime because he believes he is a victim of life. There are two kinds of people - the kind of people who wake up and say "Thank God, it's Monday" and the kind of people who wake up and say "Oh God! Shi*! It's Monday." We have to learn how to take control over our lives and embrace our best self everyday by knowing that 90% of what we become depends on our attitude. We have to live our life with a spirit of gratitude, faith, courage, hope and whatever it takes attitude. We always have to embrace our purpose, be kind to everyone we come in contact with and live our life as if everyday is a blessing. I totally recommend this book to you and I hope it touches you the way it touched me. Attitude is everything. Rate - 9/10
