    I go to an academically accelerated high school in Michigan. When I’d applied to the school I had no idea what type of school it was, only that they only admit 30 students in each grade in the entire state. Like many others who applied, I realized that going to the school would put me in contacts with who I needed to make my life much easier. Two months later after hours of ruthless testing and interviewing I received the letter that I still have framed in my bedroom. Unfortunately to my 14 year old self there was also a list of required reading in that admission packet. This book was on it. I can honestly say I breezed past the entire book my freshman year. But whenever someone in my class was less than successful my professors would refer back to the book. I got to reading the book, and realized that a lot of those topics covered applied to me. I can honestly without out that book I would not of graduated as valedictorian, heading to Harvard and on this path of life.

    At first, I was very harsh on this book. I assumed it was just an unrealistic form of motivation. I was very wrong, and I'm happy that I didn't let my assumptions take over to the point where I would have stopped reading it! It offers very clear advice, on things that often trouble teenagers. It shows that all teens go through these difficult phases. It directs on how to get through stressful situations. It will certainly improve my life, and I hope it will continue to improve the lives of others. And even though the saying it extremely cliche and worn to death, it states that dreams really can come true ; but only through dedication, momentum, and hard work. 😄😆😇😺🙉👍💛
  • A necessary read for teens, parents, and teachers!

    As a high school teacher, I decided to read this book to use as a tool to help some of my wonderful, smart, lazy students. This is not only something I am going to recommend for teens and parents, I will be sharing this with my AVID team and school administration as well. Fantastic!,!

    This book is absolutely amazing. I am very surprised of this books outcome. It does not only teach you how to be successful in life but how to deal with everything in life from day to day basis. It is a guide I think everyone should read. It teaches different aspects of how to be successful and I would recommend this book to anyone.

    This book is not at all about following anyone and being a sheep. This book is about setting your own goals creating a vision for your life and following simple disciplines every single day to help you achieve your goals! Absolutely amazing for teens!
