Dad, as I finished reading this book I have come to the conclusion that my attitude, more than anything else will determine my success in life.
His faith-based writing inspires teens to see beyond themselves. So when John Maxwell recommends a book, I listen.
He recommends parents give their kids these books:
- The Difference Maker: Teaches the importance of our attitude
- Talent is Never Enough: It’s not talent, it’s the choices you make that determine success
- Failing Forward: Teaches you how to fail successfully
- Make Today Matter: How our daily decisions impact our lives

I hope this inspires all of us to be intentional about preparing our teenagers to dream big – one adventure at a time.
And in the meantime, let’s start with getting them to pick up their socks…
