Synopsis

We live in a culture that focuses on the "bad stuff". We're constantly bombarded with negative messages from the media, advertisers, politicians, and even the people around us. Worse yet, many of us are so critical of ourselves that we're our worst enemies.
But help is on the way. Focus on the Good Stuff offers a plan for dispelling the cloud of negativity that surrounds us. Mike Robbins has created a powerful yet simple new approach for mastering the one thing we need most of all to achieve authentic happiness and be of service to others - that is, to practice the art of appreciation.
Written by a former professional baseball player whose career ended with an injury to his pitching arm in the middle of his third season, Focus on the Good Stuff is filled with passion, authenticity and humor. Author Mike Robbins offers a step-by-step program with exercises for overcoming negative influence and obstacles, creating a truly grateful approach to life, and establishing an environment that can support success and peace of mind.

Goodreads review by Jennifer on November 08, 2017

This book didn't really contain anything new- I've read this same book by different authors or discussed by Oprah. However, it's always a good reminder to be positive and practice gratitude, especially in this day and age.......more
