Carlos Whittaker Writes a Book

When Carlos Whittaker, the guy behind the viral video, "Single Ladies Devastation," isn't sharing his "horrible father" moments, (his words, not mine) he's living life to the fullest as a blogger, musician, worship leader and now, an author. The husband and father of three has come a long way from the little boy who thought that staying on the sidelines was best. He's a leader and a winner - through his greatest moments and his not-so-great ones too.

And he shares both types (as well as the in-betweens) in his new book, Moment Maker: You Can Live Your Life or It Will Live You, which releases on April 1, 2014. He believes that each moment we have in this life is valuable so choosing to make each moment count is as important as breathing. In his book, he shows how he became a moment maker through stories about his own moments.

"I make moments on a daily basis because I want to know that when life has decided it has had enough of me, it's gonna be because it is exhausted from trying to keep up."

What a wonderful way to look at (and live) life! It turns out that it doesn't take a huge amount of time, effort or money either. If you pay attention and make the effort to capture your moments, you'll find yourself better than halfway there.

If you don't find yourself inspired to live life to the absolute fullest after reading this book, you should check your pulse because you may be dead!
