Reading Positive Mental Attitude books

I have a set goal to read at-leased one hour each day from a Positive Mental Attitude book or a People Skills book. This has helped me to realize that while I see myself as the most important person to me, the other fellow sees himself that way as well. To be successful in business and any endeavor, I should put my desires aside and focus on that of the person standing in front of me.
