REINVENTING YOURSELF

The author is a seasoned values teacher whose heartfelt message is this: We get more from life when we decide to approach it as an owner--someone who shapes our own attitudes and takes responsibility for what we bring to life--rather than a passive victim. His particular twist on this theme is to remind us that the building blocks of these attitudes are already in our repertoire, such as when we stiffen up during frustration or talk softly to a smiling baby. We have the same power to change our attitude toward the bigger hills and valleys of life, he says, in a program that is as memorable for its sincerity as for its insights and motivational value.
