The Ridgefield Library is pleased to have author John Patrick back for his fourth visit. The lively talk, called It’s All About Attitude, will be at 7PM on Thursday, April 5. John believes many opportunities and problems have their roots in attitude. He also believes the solutions and ways forward are based on attitude. In his revealing talk, John will offer a positive perspective on how an attitude change can reap major improvements. He will weave this theme through his current four books. He will also introduce us to his newest book, Home Attitude: Everything You Need To Know To Make Your Home Smart.
