Imagine a world in which Gen Xers, millennials, and boomers interact with young people in ways that leave them feeling inspired, enthusiastic, and ready to contribute—rather than disengaged, outraged, or overwhelmed. That world may be closer than you think. In this book based on cutting edge research, psychologist David Yeager explains how to stop fearing young people’s brains and hormones and start harnessing them.

WHY I HOPE NO ONE READS THIS BOOK (not really)
Revisado: 08-20-24
Because when I've thoroughly understood and am employing its concepts and principles I will have an unfair advantage. So, for me, the fewer that are 'in on it', the better. Right?
Really though, not only will the world be a better place the wider these ideas are spread and adopted, but I can't help but wonder how more of this thinking could've impacted my life and the lives of those I care about.
That's ok. The second best time to plant a tree is today, right?
Like Yeager's daughter, I intuitively understood the benefits of the Mentor Mindset and the detriments of the other two (Enforcer and Rescuer Mindsets) early on but didn't have the words for it.
Now we do. And we can more clearly see why and how to employ this stuff.
Everybody, please do everyone else a favor and learn this book!

In So You Want to Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo offers a contemporary, accessible take on the racial landscape in America, addressing head-on such issues as privilege, police brutality, intersectionality, micro-aggressions, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the "N" word. Perfectly positioned to bridge the gap between people of color and white Americans struggling with race complexities, Oluo answers the questions listeners don't dare ask and explains the concepts that continue to elude everyday Americans.

WHITE PEOPLE NEED THIS BOOK!!!
Revisado: 07-03-20
Are you just getting started? Are you just now waking up to it? If so, before you go find POC and say. "I'm so sorry. How can I help? What can I do?" READ THIS BOOK!
One thing I'm hearing repeatedly is that it's not POC's job to catch us up. The information is available. Let's do the work. Let's learn and understand uncomfortable things. Let's earn our way into the conversation. (I'm white, for what it's worth)
You know how when we, like say, fly to Paris? And the minute we get off the plane it's obvious to everyone around us that we haven't even bothered to learn at all about the language, history, or culture. And we get offended because they get offended. Opportunities for connection and growth are wasted. And then we fly back home and tell everybody, "Yeah, French people are rude..."
Well, this is kinda like that. And this book could be very useful in helping us not be "that guy". It certainly has been for me.

In Super Bowl XLIX, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll made one of the most controversial calls in football history: With 26 seconds remaining, and trailing by four at the Patriots' one-yard line, he called for a pass instead of a handing off to his star running back. The pass was intercepted, and the Seahawks lost. Critics called it the dumbest play in history. But was the call really that bad? Or did Carroll actually make a great move that was ruined by bad luck? Even the best decision doesn't yield the best outcome every time.

We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn't be this way. There is a formula for success that's been followed by the icons of history - from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs - a formula that let them turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they found the astounding triumphs we all seek.

Any additional comments?
Been trying to avoid stoicism for a good while now due to the fact that it wants me to work and stuff. (joke, sort of...) Really though! What if more of us had this book in our toolkit? What if we, I don't know, taught these ideas to young people? What would that look like? Maybe I'll grab a copy of The Daily Stoic and do just that. By the way, my kids really love it when I find books that resonate the way this one does! (joke)
