We see this in many high school athletes they are physically gifted to perform the actively. However, when the actively is over what is next step. I learned working with youth athletes that the coaches do not explain the down falls such getting hurt. I see the box mentality in many athletes. This is one-way street for lot athletes. Many do not understand what is next after playing sport. There goals and dreams are so unclear that they only see sports. Are they box maker and thinking in the box ?
This video Tyrone explains his obstacles he faces in life. He is a prime example of why you should not let what your parents do hold you back from your future. Tyrone can user some of his father upbringing for some good and bad in life. However, without his father he would not be the man he is today. I plan to continue to live in consciousness throughout this new journey I learn about myself. When I was working thought this workbook I discover a lot new inventory. I have to help myself before I can help someone else. Tyrone has got to that point and he is telling his story throughout to bless someone

    I had always been told this book was incredible and I never read it because it just didn't seem like my type of book, but this course gave me the opportunity to read this book and really reflect on it. I suppose there are many different ways that I could use this book in both my personal and professional life. All of the different things going on in this book really helped me to notice some of the signs that children who suffer from abuse and neglect will often show. Children coming to school in smelly clothes, having random bruises appearing each week, looks of malnourishment, change of bruise stories, etc. are all tell-tale signs that maybe there's a bigger issue going on in the home than meets the eye. I have a passion for Social Work and working with children and adults who have been affected by alcohol and substance abuse is where I want to spend most of my time, so this book really hit me in my emotions and pulled at my heart strings. This book has opened up my eyes to see the cruelty that we face in this world and that nobody is safe, not even a small child. If nothing else, this book at least has made me want to be nicer to children and to make sure I can identify signs of abuse and neglect in children. This book makes me so much more excited to be a helper after reading it because I'm going to strive to get victims of this severe abuse out of the home and into a safe area. Also, this book makes…

    From its use of symbolism to the life lesson. Jeannette Walls told her story in a unique way and it made me feel different emotion. After reading about what Jeannette and her siblings had to go through, made me think about my life. Personally, it made me grateful for having a family that provides me a shelter and treats me well. Of course, we all have ups and downs, but it just so hard to believe what she went through. And how she manages to stay strong and positive, when others can easily give up. I highly recommend this book to everyone, as if it can change your perspective on…

    This novel inspired me so much; it's unbelievable what one person can do. He started out by himself but with God's faith in him he built a community. The novel was difficult to put down, but I did place it down for awhile. I would recommend this novel to many people. There was one main theme in the novel that had hit me the most and it was the drug addict theme. I think the reason it grew on my so much is that I have a family member who is struggling with drugs himself, and I could relate to the novel…
