About the Book
Teenagers have more potential than they realize. Our schools are not helping them “learn how to learn.”
This book will help them:
- learn to express themselves.
- discover a quiet faith and confidence.
- learn to think and act on the value of their own thinking.
- learn, like an Olympic athlete, how to focus on their greatest enthusiasm.
- become more interesting to themselves and to others, because of their growing interest in many things.
- find self-respect by accepting responsibility.
About the Author
Richard Eastman as a teenager lived a life that few could imagine. He finished only half of the seventh grade and none of the eighth grade. He left home at the age of fourteen. Later as a Youth Counselor he claimed to be the “Worlds Best Listener.”
Richard believes “Learning” is an adventure if you invent and design your own class. He thinks if students wait for a teacher to teach, their education will be a disaster. Emerson said, “Most people live in quiet desperation.” Life without the excitement of learning becomes one television show after another. Teenagers must have at least one-hour each day to write a script of their own show...their own life.
