Attitude, commitment and enthusiasm -- these words can have a profound
impact on you if you are looking to move your career and your life in a
positive direction. Taken together, they form the basis for how you deal
with life or how life deals with you. They have been the cornerstones of his
career, and now Stevens wants to help you successfully navigate the rest of
your life. People are not born with these characteristics. They are
developed by using the correct combination of four essential ingredients, or
the four "p's" of success -- passion, patience, purpose and prayer, which
are defined and presented in the book -- along with the development of a
personal action plan.
Numerous self-help books are available in the marketplace today. What
sets "Four Steps in Developing Your A.C.E." apart from the others is the
author’s ability to use prayer and biblical scriptures, two powerful
motivators in themselves, to encourage other people in developing their
attitude, commitment and enthusiasm.
Stevens knows firsthand the importance of developing and having an A.C.E.
He has set an example for others to follow and has spent his entire life
encouraging others to use their God-given talents in developing their own
A.C.E.
Stevens is deputy director in the Marketing Division of the U.S. General
Services Administration. A resident of South DeKalb County, Ga., he was
sixth in a family of 13 raised in Inkster, Mich. He played percussion
professionally in the U.S. Air Force Band and currently serves as first
sergeant in the U.S. Air Force Reserve at Dobbins Air Reserve Base, Ga. He
is an accomplished photographer, has traveled extensively throughout the
world and speaks frequently throughout the United States about the
importance of having a positive attitude, having a focused commitment and
displaying an outpouring enthusiasm for life.

His book is a celebration of his lifelong dream of providing
guidance to others in developing a positive attitude toward life.
"It is a wonderfully inspiring book that I will personally use in
both my personal and professional life," said Dr. Doris Sartor,
Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala. "I would buy the book and recommend to
others to purchase the book."
No matter what you think about attitude, commitment and
enthusiasm, these words can be the beginnings of strategies that can
help you build a foundation of success.
