101+ Uncommonly Good Insights for Teens Paul Novak
Guiding teens on their path to independence can be a monumental task.
Tomes of wisdom for both parents and teens abound -- yet most rival textbooks and
encyclopedias for readability. After wasting countless dollars on such volumes,
Paul Novak created a document of short, practical wisdom for his own teen sons. These
"nuggets" of sensible guidance offer talking points for parents and teens, opening
doors of communication about life-altering choices. Topics covered include leadership,
friends, success, peer pressure, difficulty, work, sex, and many more.
Excerpt from the book:
Ideas and quotations about dealing with life are abundant, but some are more helpful
and practical. These nuggets of wisdom present practical solutions and guidance
for a variety of life's situations. They are presented here in no particular order
or priority, but with the hope that they will generate positive thoughts for you -
thoughts that will guide you toward lasting, positive experiences.
-You will find that if you reach out and make the effort to help
enough people with their goals and aspirations, your own are reached as well.
- Travel! Travel anywhere and everywhere. See your own country and then
the rest of the world. There is so much out there to experience and learn. It will
make you more open-minded and give you a better understanding of the many amazing
cultures in our country and world.
- If you listen very closely, you will find that people who talk the loudest have
the least to say, and that is because they try to overcome lack of content with an
increase in volume.
- Consider that happy people aren't made that way by having the most money,
the most prestige, the most friends, or even the most love. What happens? Everyday
people like you and I just make the best of everything we have. Then happiness results.
- Try to get into the habit of being on time for your scheduled appointments-all
of them. If you're perpetually late, it tells people one thing-they're not important
enough for you to bother meeting them on time.
