Attitude Is Everything

Keith D. Harrell Β· 1999
91/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Keith Harrell built his framework in the trenches of corporate training with Fortune 500 clients, and that credibility shows. The ten-step structure for turning attitude into action is concrete and actionable, covering everything from reframing negative self-talk to embracing change and building supportive relationships. Stephen Covey's endorsement is well-placed β€” the principles align with the classic personal-responsibility tradition and the accessible tone makes them easy to absorb. The honest caveat is that more than 25 years have passed since publication, and some of the cultural touchstones feel dated; readers familiar with later self-help titles may find the framework familiar. For anyone new to this space or looking for an uplifting foundational read, the two-million-copy sales record is not a surprise.
