Visualize Joy One Minute For Myself: How to Manage Your Most Valuable Asset, by Spencer Johnson, M.D., one of the co-authors of The One Minute Manager. This modern fable succinctly helps you see that looking after yourself is the first step to being happy and effectively looking after everyone else in your business and life. This includes asking yourself, "Is there a better way for me to act right now?" You are the one that responds to what is happening around you. "In one minute you can change your attitude and that minute can change your entire day." The book also makes the point that things will get better only when you stop doing what doesn't work.
