Motivator for children July 6, 2008
I know the book says for TEENS, but why wait????
My granddaughter's birthday is in July. Facing 10 and the next grade and struggling somewhat through the end of the last semester, I wanted her to have a view of the 'big picture' that she would be ready to take on the challenge of the critical years to come.
This book is about empowerment. Helping a child form their own opinions and allowing them to mature without encumbering them with mixed messages during a difficult time.
I have only been working with her a month, but she now understands WHY she WANTS a clean room. She has already developed some of her OWN goals and is even forming ideas about what she would like to be when she grows up.
Since the book is written by peers, it gives kids tools and examples in their own language.
She has come to understand that class projects are not something to be done casually, but with consideration and forethought.
Even MORE important is the sense of SELF she is discovering and, as an amazing side benefit, HAPPINESS.
Maybe they should have called this Stop the Mope, Learn to Cope.... I DID read the book WITH her to help her feel more empowered and teamed up with an ally.
I also figured this would be the best way to PREPARE ME for the changes she would get from this book.
Ready for a re-birth? Make this book a family event and grow together.
Perfectly Happy July 1, 2008
This book was perfect for my daughter who is struggling to figure out what life is all about. Once she started reading this book, she couldn't stop talking to me about what the book said. The book really helped her understand things that I couldn't help her with. I am very happy that I purchased this book for my daughter. I highly recommend it for anyone who has a teenage that is struggling to figure out life.

Wow, I devoured the book "The Success Principles for teens" in 3 days and I am absolutely amazed how you are able to attack EVERY SINGLE negativity a teenager could possibly have. That fear, excuse, or problem - all answered. I have to admit, besides completely revamping my whole outlook on life, this IS the best book I've read in all of school.
I wish they would've have written this book sooner! June 4, 2008

The Success Principles for Teens is a phenomenal book! I wish I would have had a copy as a pre-teen or teenager. It would have saved me a lot of needless pain & suffering. This book teaches teens how to take responsibility for their lives, set goals, and establish healthy self-esteems and healthy self-perceptions. It encourages the reader to be persistent and to give their best no matter what. Each chapter is sprinkled with inspiring stories that back up the 20 principles. It is extremely fun and entertaining to read while teaching important life skills. I am 27-years old and was motivated to take the suggestions in the book. Implementing these suggestions has absolutely changed my life for the better. I am now goal oriented and have a much more positive outlook on life. This book made me feel that I finally have the tools necessary to deal with the real world.

Read about those who did what they wanted to do despite their realistic external conditions or situations. The Authors have studied those people who did what they wanted to do, even those who did something that no one had done previously. The Success Principles are a result of those studies.
Is there something you want to do? Is the next step reading, learning and applying The Success Principles to your own life? You've got the potential, just the same as those examples in the book who succeeded in doing what they wanted.
It's up to you......!
