Maxwell in this highly practical primer, "Attitude 101." Anyone who has tried to lead people with bad attitudes knows the frustration it can bring.

Loved this little book, and if only execution on these ideas and attitudes was as easy as reading them, life would be sweet at all times!
One of the interesting ideas proposed by Maxwell is that of planned neglect. He tells us the story of the violinist who would return to her room after class, and start to clean up, organize, take care of all possible mundane efforts, and as a result procrastinate her violin practice. She realizes she was clearly not progressing until she reversed her tactics –...more

John Maxwell's 101 series of books can be summed up thusly: Take the considerable knowledge that Maxwell has accumulated over his decades long search for solid leadership principles, put it down in a "Reader's Digest" format, and divide it up into several categories. The category for "Attitude 101" is not surprisingly, attitude. The book has concise high-level easy to read summaries of how the proper attitude can make you a better leader and make you more successful. The most valuable section of...more
A MUST READ for anyone in leadership or desiring/aspiring to become a leader. Even if you are a team player...you would benefit from reading this easy, practical, short read book. I love this quote as it drew me to purchase this book: "ATTITUDE CAN MAKE OR BREAK YOU AND THE PEOPLE YOU LEAD." John C. Maxwell
Excellent book! I needed some motivation, and this book delivered. I love that it's slim, easy to read, but packed with great advice on how our attitudes affect our performance. If you're in a slump, feeling insecure, having doubts, or just need a general pick-me-up, read this book!

أساسيات التوجه الذهني
إننا مسؤولون بشكل شخصي عن نظرتنا الى الحياة. ان توجهاتنا الذهنية وتصرفاتنا تجاه الحياة تحدد ما يحدث لنا.
أي شيء يكون جيدا عندما تكون بدايته جيدة.
اذا لم تفشل فربما لا تحقق تقدما حقيقيا.

I am not sure what to say about this book. The stars that I gave for the rating should be suffice, let me explain for those who feel the reason for giving the number of stars. First the book is very quick and easy to read. Not many complicated sentences. Most of the discussion one might have already come across but one needs to check whether to put them into practice or not. Enjoyed reading the book.
Some times you just need a small reminder that anything is possible but it comes at a cost. Attitude is everything. Great book to remind us what is important.
How a positive attitude makes a big difference in business. Leaders can make an impact on the attitudes and results of their employees.
This book should be read and the advise given lived... ABSOLUTELY wonderful, and easy to read.

all the 101 book are good. They are short and great starter books for teenagers.
Essential for everyone to read this. it's more than leadership, its about the attitude that we carry around in life.
Excelente! Para aquellos que quieren aprender cada día sobre el liderazgo.
John C Maxwell is akin to a short and editable Dale Carnegie!

Attitude is everything!awesome book
A must read for everyone.
Ingen kan göra succé om den samtidigt tror sig vara ett misslyckande. Det här är verkligen vad varje ledare bör veta!
Probably not my favourite of Maxwell's, but a good refresher of concepts discussed elsewhere and helpful in steeling my attitude for the ongoing tests life throws at me.
The best thing I learned from this is that I am in total control of my attitude and that I can create tremendous results by staying in control of my attitude; that is where it all starts.
I believe Maxwell says that when you begin something your attitude towards that thing will determine whether or not you will succeed based just upon your attitude!

I am currently reading this book. From the first page I've been positively impacted. John C. Maxwell is an amazing author. Thanks to World Wide Dream Builders I feel like I know his heart & share his passions. :)
I'd heard good things about the author, and he did have some good points but overall it wasn't anything spectacular, just good logic.
No, I did not read it in french/creole. Love this author! Good stuff!
this is packed with attitude adjustment!
