My reading of books about history gave me the stories that I could draw on. Random jobs had exposed me to dark corners of the human psyche. I had given myself the perfect education for the writing of the book about power. The moral:  We focus on what we see with our eyes. When we see the transformation in a person's life, we see the visible signs of opportunity. What allows for dramatic changes are what we can't see slow accumulation of skills the improvement of ability to withstand criticism. If we want to change something in ourselves, we need to build skills. The key to change ourselves is to stop looking at what other people say or do.

We celebrate positive thoughts -- Go to TINYURL.com/SUNANTS . Three steps to TALK BACK to negative thoughts

Image
Are you narrating a life story that will hold you back or help you forward?  Will the story you're telling yourself today open you up to new possibilities or close you off from them?  These questions are important because every great story leaves us wondering the same thing: Where will the next chapter take us? Train yourself  When you get a negative thought, ask, “How do you know that?” “What evidence do you have that this is true?” Talk back to the negative thoughts.  TinyURL.com/SunANTS

Learn the "back story" behind the Malcolm X.X.X. rap

See this photo “Malcolm X.X.X.” was written to remind the audience about the life and work of   XXXTENTACION , a rapper who worked with Kodak Black.  XXX was killed in June 2018. Kodak and XXX were both in prison in Broward County and worked together in 2017 to create Kodak’s rap  “Roll in Peace.” This rap includes recordingsfrom   Malcolm X , who in the 1960s worked as an advocate for human rights (he was killed by a gun, too). In the rap, similarities are given between XXXTENTACION and Malcolm X, which explains the title. ============================================================ One of my students asked this question:  "Who gonna ride with you?"  He also quoted from Malcolm X.X.X., Go here to see the Tshirt At our school, we encourage students to create websites.  Here is a sample of the steps for a website using Google Sites If you would like to learn more about the Global Skills that you can learn from you...
