Valuable investment

Reviewed by Debra Gaynor for Reader Views (10/06) We all want our children to make the most of their potential. But they don't always know how. "Human beings don't always make the most of their potential. Sometimes they think they're doing the most they can but really aren't, and sometimes for one reason or another they simply don't try to live life to the fullest." This book was written to show your children how to create the satisfying and fulfilling life you want them to live. "Success is described in a lot of different ways, including:" "Success is personal happiness." "Success is achieving one's personal goals." "Success is giving something your all." "Success is recognition for your work from others." "Success is feeling fulfilled by your accomplishments." There are many factors in determining one's ability to achieve something including: personal attitude, understanding of personal values, personal beliefs. One must set and work toward achieving personal goals. "The ability to set meaningful personal goals is critical to attaining the highest levels of success in life... A personal goal is a specific out come that you are committed to achieving and are willing to support with a plan and action... Without goals, you are left with chaos and random outcomes created through random events." "Only when the `why' behind achieving a goal is strong enough, will you be likely to do `what' it takes to achieve the goal." "Flash Point for Young Adults" is a valuable book that we should all invest in. We want our children to be successful. The price of this book is a small price to pay to assist our children on their path to life. This is a dynamic book with teaching tools included. It is with great pleasure I recommend this book to parents and youth.

What we wish we had known years ago

Ken has created a tool that we should all purchase for at least one teen in our lives. How many times have we said "Man, I wish I had known that before I _______ (fill in the blank with the most recent mistake you've made)." Help your teens get a head start on life by purchasing this book. And make sure you read it with them...there are lessons we all can be reminded of!

Finally, the road map for teens to really become successful!

If you want to help your child leap ahead in learning and leveraging time tested success and life skills, then buy this book now. Kids will "get it" because the author speaks their language. I highly recommend this book for parents and teachers wanting to help any teen or young adult they care about get ahead in life. This book is easy to read, the excercises are thought provoking and relevant to what kids need today.
