This book helps people to interact to the world around them by giving the tools needed to identify how they perceive themselves and how people they interact with perceive them. Once they find perceptions that are inconsistent with how others view them, the book will guide people how to adjust their way of self-evaluation to help them achieve their highest level of success by giving them a proper framework that will help them interact with those in professional, social and academic environments. These appropriate and proper interactions will result in higher self-esteem and successful outcomes that will help them achieve their life goals as well as leave a positive footprint of healthy thinking with all those they have interacted with in their professional, academic and social environments.--Karen Lillie, Educator This book explains what is limiting your ability to make choices that will help you grow and about tearing down those things which limit your choices. It explains how biases, both conscience and unconscious, as well as a variety of predispositions, narrow your allowed choices; how allowed inputs/influences can limit your ability to make decisions that can help you grow. Growth includes anything, from mental and physical fitness, acceptance of others and new ideas, professional success, what you eat, etc. This book gives the reader situational examples that they might relate to and get that moment of revelation.--David Gerhard, software engineer and entrepreneur This book discusses mindset and its effects on learning in terms of skill acquisition (curriculum) as well as learning in terms of emotional regulation, managing your own behavior, and achieving one's own goals. This information will help us to plan and manage meaningful interventions based on mindset that will benefit our students, staff and community. I feel that this book would help teachers to better conceptualize their role within a child's education and to better plan for student learning. I think that Dr. Hanson's book would be a great book for our next book study and that there are many people within our district and community who would benefit from reading this book.--Andrea James-Rocha, MS, BCBA; administrator of the Behavior Intervention Program (ABA program) supporting students who present challenging or maladaptive behaviors in the classroom Dr. Hanson's book has a wonderful balance of conversational tone and research-based context that makes important academic material approachable to the general public. The writing is an engaging style of you can do this! with if you know and practice this new concept, you can take yourself to the next level. Well done! The balance of footnotes and diagrams exemplifies the niche she has found that is difficult for many of us. Truly good work!--Anita Henck, PhD, Dean, School of Education, Azusa Pacific University
