  <abstract>"Boy Wanted": A Book of Cheerful Counsel by Nixon Waterman is a self-help guide primarily aimed at youth, written in the early 20th century. The book provides motivational advice and reflections on personal development, emphasizing the importance of a positive attitude, hard work, and resilience. Though it speaks to young boys directly, the author encourages readers of all ages to adopt a mindset focused on growth and self-improvement.  The beginning of the book introduces the optimistic premise that the world eagerly awaits the contributions of young boys, urging them to seize the numerous opportunities available to them. Waterman stresses the significance of starting early in cultivating skills and mindset. He addresses common notions about success and the mindset needed to achieve it, illustrated through anecdotes and allegories. The overall message is one of cheerful determination and the insistence that success is within reach for those who are willing to engage wholeheartedly in their personal journeys.
