Great Practical Advice to Change your Attitude!

This is an excellent book. This book makes a great gift because it is a pretty quick read but it packs a lot in a small package! I think the actual title should be Jesus, Lord of your Attitude. Because I think that one's personality is simply their likes and dislikes, and what the Russells discuss in this book is one's attitude; the way one reacts to what happens to them day to day. The book is broken into four sections: "From Griping to Grateful", "From Worry to Peace", "From Bitterness to Forgiveness" and From Depression to Joy". Even if you think that you have a good attitude in life, you may not realize how much you complain on a daily basis. This is the section of the book that I really appreciated. The Russells assert that "Gratitude is the key to personal happiness" Are you comparing yourself to those who have more than you? why? This book says that if you have clothes on your back, a roof over your head and $20 bucks in your pocket then you are richer than 75% of the world! Count your blessings! I think if you take time to give this book a read, you will be buying it for your friends, especially any who are discouraged, depressed, or who worry alot. Hey, it might even be a nice nudge for that person who is always complaining!
