| Title: | Little Gold Book of YES! Attitude | ||||
| Author: | Jeffrey Gitomer is a sales Guru and the best selling author of four sales books. | ||||
| Category: | Personal Development | ||||
| What the book is about: | |||||
| As you would expect from the title this is a book about having a positive attitude.The difference between a standard positive attitude and the “YES” attitude in this book is that with the YES attitude you are focused and portray a perception that your answer to questions will be YES.The book is Split into six elements of Insight to your inside attitude, attitude self awareness, attitude actions, attitude attributes, attitude achievement and attitude fulfilment.
This is a book that provides a group of resources to help you assess and adjust your attitude to a positive setting. These resources include (but are not limited to) a test to see what your positive attitude is and a collection of Gitomer’s affirmations. |

| Would I buy this book: |
NO |
||||
| There was nothing new in here and I believe that there are better books out there to help you achieve a positive attitude. | |||||
| What I liked about this book: | |||||
| I really liked the idea of replacing “I’m Sorry” with “Thank You” whenever someone yells at you or blames you.I thought the Attitude self test was user friendly and provided a good starting point to indicate how much is required to progress to a more positive attitude. | |||||
| What I thought could have been improved in this book: | |||||
| I didn’t like the comment around attitude books “Don’t go to the library like a cheap bastard. BUY THE BOOKS”.I agree that some personal development books can be read over and over again and I am a fan of each person having their own library. As Gitomer’s reading list may not coincide with ours, there is nothing wrong with trying a book from the library first in order to decide if it is something we want to add to our library.For a book on positive attitudes the comment could have been framed a lot better.
I wasn’t over fussed at his habit of numbering using decimal points, numbering from 1 to 5 then having 5.5 as the next step instead of 6 did nothing for me. |
