Praise for Positive Thinking, Postive Action :

In today's fast moving world it is very easy to become demotivated and thereby negative for those of us who are not natuaral optimists. The trouble with demotivation and negativity is that we bring it home from our workplace and this enhances the our downward spiral.

Doug Miller's book helps to reverse this processby teaching us the benefits of positivity. We all know people who appear postive and with such positivity goes success. Not necessarily always in their work but in their lives. The book draws upon the experiences of self motivated people whose lives have taken off because of their attitude and their postive approach to everything they do.

There are plenty of techniques with the 192 pages to help the most stubborn pessimist. An ideal present for a disaffected offspring going through an identity crisis.
