Thought-filled Thursday--Coddling of The American Mind
On Monday I wrote about how I thought The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure should be required reading for every parent, teacher, coach, or anyone who works with the youth of today. Here are few more quotes from the book:
The more you align with your values, the more things you value will align around you.
Make sure that you possess your possessions rather than them possessing you.
There is only one success ― to be able to spend your life in your own way.
If you sit and get really quiet, fully expecting your answer, it has to come.
Work is healthy and productive only if you know when to stop.
—Dan
