I really liked the last book that I read by Dr. Ammon-Wexler, so I went ahead and got You Can Become Exceptional.Another really insightful, helpful gem of a book! I've been kind of pressed for time lately, so this book was the perfect length for me. So many interesting facts...for instance, she goes over the mind-body connection and how people can literally 'think themselves healthy' or 'think themselves sick.' I'd always suspected this, having worked with a lot of complainers, etc. LOL. Turns out there is real science to back this up! Our mind is the most powerful tool we possess, perhaps the most powerful tool in the universe.Dr. Ammon-Wexler has so many great points in this book, urging us to focus on the skills and natural talents that we possess inherently. What's the point of trying to develop a skill for which you have no natural affinity? I believe that our school systems need to listen to this theory. Why insist that a kid who is naturally a gifted mechanic take a really difficult chemistry class? Anyway, I'm taking action and listing my natural strengths today, so that I can work on getting a job that's better suited for me and start moving in that direction.Great book that inspires you to become the chief architect of your own life!
