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.

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.

His main message is that we are the power behind our success or failure, depending on the thoughts we fill our mind with.

Here we are on this beautiful and spacious 757, which has enormous power - and yet it’s all controlled by the main pilot. He has his flight plan, hands on the controls and can make this plane go as far as he wants, in any direction. Our MIND is very much the same. Our thoughts are OUR fuel and we are the pilot that determines our own flight plan. We may deviate from it slightly, but we are responsible for where we go and at what speed and attitude/altitude!

Attitude

Each morning I read an inspiring book or article for 15-30 minutes. This always puts my mind and attitude in the right place as I prepare for the day. One of my favorite quotes on attitude is from Charles Swindoll. I always include a copy of it when I autograph a copy of my book as a gift. To see the quote, just scroll down…….
