I read this book, "Monday Morning Choices" by David Cottrell, recently and though that it's pretty good! I guess it falls into that kind of self-improvement & motivational category. Just want to share a tiny portion of the book.
Character Choices1) The No Victim Choice --- Don't let your past eat your future.Do I accept total responsibility for my success?2) The Commitment Choice --- Be passionate enough to succeed.Am I committed to paying the price of success?3) The Values Choice --- Choose the right enemies.Do I accept that there will be enemies who oppose my values?4) The Integrity Choice --- Do the right thing.Will my success be accomplished without a sacrifice of my integrity?
Action Choices5) The Do-Something Choice --- Don't vacation on "Someday Isle".Will I attack complacency and do something daily towards success?6) The Persistence Choice --- Learn from failure.Will I hang in there, beyond failure, long enough to achieve success?7) The Attitude Choice --- Take the enthusiastic approach.Will I take a positive approach to the unexpected twists and turns of life?8) The Adversity Choice --- Conquer difficult times.Will I attack adversity, regardless of what happens along the way?
Investment Choices9) The Relationship Choice --- Connect with success.Will I invest time in building positive relationships?10) The Criticism Choice --- Embrace tough learning.Do I accept criticism as valuable feedback?11) The Reality Choice --- Face the truth.Am I true to myself and all those around me?12) The Legacy Choice --- Give your gift.Do I share the gift of my experience and knowledge with others?
I know this sounds real cliche, but this is just the tip of an iceberg. The book provides great insights & reading it felt like going through a lesson about life! Good read if you are simply bumming around & feel a little lost in life.
