Each of us has the power to choose a positive attitude over a negative one. If you want an attitude that works for you, that improves the quality of your life and enables you to accom- plish your dreams, you have to work at it. You can’t just sit around and wait for a positive attitude to come over you. In this book, I will provide you with tools to tune and take control of your attitude, even in the most challenging times. The material in this book is not merely motivational. It offers you step-by-step instructions and examples of how others—including myself—have benefited by taking respon- sibility for their attitudes. You have made an investment in yourself—an investment that will pay dividends when—and only when—you apply the principles and take action. The fundamental principle is that attitude is all it takes to walk those nine yards. You’ll learn that no matter how old you are, what your position or station in life, your gender, or your marital status, a positive attitude can make an incredible difference. In the chapters that follow, I will give you the tools you need for an attitude tune-up. I’m going to provide you with ten steps for turning attitude into action.
