Bestselling novelist and motivational speaker Anita Bunkley shows women, especially African American women, how to put their talent, service, dream, or product in the spotlight. Whether you're a businesswoman, an entrepreneur, or a young woman entering the job market, Steppin' Out with Attitude will help you put your unique talents and abilities to work. Anita Bunkley empathetically addresses those readers who have a tendency to downplay their skills and to undersell themselves. Through short exercises and practical tips, she provides a step-by-step program that offers both practical advice and emotional support. Quotes, inspirational passages, stories about the author's life experiences as a novelist and motivational speaker, and testimonials from prominent women will also help you pave the way to success. Bunkley zeroes in on the three D's: desire, discipline, and drive. Self-knowledge is the key to maximizing potential, and Bunkley helps you crystallize your goals and provide a solid understanding of what is fueling your quest. Steppin' Out with Attitude shows you how to: set lofty goals and eliminate procrastination, shun the victim mentality, be bold enough to contact sisters for mentoring and support, exchange destructive habits for constructive ones, forgive and forget--immediately, develop a money management system that works for you, write effective résumés, press releases, and marketing materials, look and act as if you've already arrived, and believe sincerity will be rewarded. Practical and motivational, Steppin' Out with Attitude gives women the confidence to go for it!
