Course Description

Your thoughts can work for you or against you, but the good news is you get a choice. The even better news is when you're young, your entire world is made of new. You're a movie that's barely started, a notebook with blank pages to fill, a song that hasn't hit the chorus. You have your whole life ahead of you. When you learn to create new thoughts, those thoughts lead to actions, and those actions lead to new results. Are you ready to tap into the superpower of mindset? Just hit play. Come learn with fellow educators about how to assist students in making the most of their "playlist" and how the power of mindset can be life-changing both in and outside of the classroom in this self-paced, all-online book study.
