Neil Wood's New Book available in June!
Hi Friends, I have been asked SO many times to write another book that I’ve finally said yes. My book on Inspiring Quotes from Optimist Island should be available to purchase on June 10, 2010. It’s a collection of my favorite quotes over the past 40 years as well as others I’ve found just recently! As usual, I’ll share quotes on Optimism, Goals, Persistence, Hope, Friendships and YES - about Attitude…just to name a few of the chapters.
IF you have quotes you would like share, I may still have a little time to add a few more.

Wow, it's already March! How are you doing on those goals you set in December?
Time is flying by so I’ll ask the same question that I asked one month ago. Are you on track with your goals for 2010? You wanted to get into better shape, start exercising daily, increase your efforts in your career and find more balance in your life. How are you doing? Are you on track yet? Or are you filled with “excusitis”?
I’m not trying to bust your chops. That’s not my role. I want to encourage you to take the first steps that you decided to do - but have postponed for some reason. Start today. If you can work on your goal ~ daily for the next 4 weeks, you’ll feel better, prouder, stronger and happier by April.

My contribution to better attitudes
This month has been Very busy with seminars, workshops and presentations - so I apologize for such a long delay since my last blog on this site. I’ve hosted workshops on How to set Goals and my fourth presentation on How to Stay Energized and Positive Daily. The feedback has been excellent! I will do All I can to get people back on track after such a challenging year.
On “the road” I’ve spoken in Scottsdale, Quincy, Weymouth and Boston. I share ideas on how to work smarter, concepts from the book SO WHAT and success stories from other people who are “making it happen.”

Attitude by Charles Swindoll
ATTITUDE
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company…a church…a home. __________________
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past…we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude…
____________________
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you…we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
-Charles Swindoll-
Wishing you many Great moments in life!

Goals for 2010
This is one of my favorite times of the year. I enjoy most of this week reflecting on my personal and professional highlights this year. There have been quite a few “positives” and a few challenges as well. Overall, it’s been a great year to test my own attitude and “tough-mindedness” and as you can see ~ I survived! (although I do feel like I’ve aged 5 years in the last twelve months)
Some people talk about new year “resolutions” and changes you want to make. My suggestion to you is to keep your list to a few major focuses and be specific. Personally, I prefer to set Goals instead of resolutions. If you need more details about setting SMART goals, visit my Blog from Optimist Island http://optimistisland.blogspot.com
