These stories were written to inspire at a time when the world seems to need it most. The characters in these stories range from naïve, innocent, and kind to bold, strange, and detached from reality. We meet two young people in love in “What These Old Eyes Saw” and a curious man in “A Case of Delusion”. We have philosophical discussions in fables and conversations on love, wisdom, and giving with “The Student and the Master” stories. These stories are great for anyone of any age!
How far would you go to make your dream come true? Troy Jones is a 16-yr-old high school student with the dream of becoming a successful rapper. He doesn’t want fame; he wants to help his mother who works three jobs to support her family after Troy’s father was killed as a bystander in a tragic drive-by. Having problems in school, Troy tries to get I.S.S. as often as he can so he can work on his rap lyrics. Mrs. Hass, his science teacher hates rap & hip-hop music and constantly gives Troy a hard time. On the other hand Troy’s English teacher, Mr. Salas, is a beacon of hope and inspiration to the young, aspiring rapper. Mr. Salas provides him with the tools to improve his craft of writing hip-hop lyrics. When Troy’s best friend Jimmy moves to another school, Troy’s opportunity to perform in rap battles arrives. Being a nobody, he has nothing to lose and everything to gain. He dubs himself a mix “between a G and a nerd”. Along the way, he meets a love interest, suffers a big loss, meets his idol rapper and an ex-con, gets his music equipment stolen, and has doubts about his rapping ability. He knows that he does not only want to succeed; he needs to succeed.

A Lesson on How to Develop Good Habits, Reach Your Goals, and Improve Your Life: For Teens and Young & New Adults
(For Anyone, Really!)
I am very excited to share this lesson plan with you folks! I am all about staying motivated and personal growth so I decided to make a lesson to help students set clear, realistic goals, monitor and adjust their progress, break bad habits and form good ones, and key strategies to help keep them motivated throughout the whole process. I studied books by Tony Robbins, Napoleon Hill, Jim Rohn, Sean Covey, John C. Maxwell, Martin Seligman, and countless other successful mentors and coaches and concentrated the strategies, wisdom, and steps needed for effective change for teens and young adults. Some topics discussed and aimed for improvement are:
• Psychology (Positive, Cognitive, Social, Behavioral, Industrial, and others)
• Psychosomatic Illness
• Positive & Negative Reinforcement and Punishment
• Behavior Modification
Everything in this lesson is worded in teen-friendly language with relatable ideas and situations adolescents would find themselves in. It also includes helpful pictures and graphic organizers for students to interact with the lessons effectively.
Some notable Daily Thought titles are:
1. The Beauty and Struggle of Self-Transformation
2. Attitude is 99% of Success…and Write it Down!
3. Hard Truths in Life We Must All Accept…But There’s Good Ones, Too!
4. It’s not your potential that matters - it’s what you actually do! (And Ways to Stay Motivated)
5. Adopt an Attitude of Gratitude!
Every Daily Thought comes with space for students to personally reflect on the day’s lesson on how it relates to them and how they will implement the strategies and practices personally. This lesson is designed to be worked on and reflected daily and it is very important that the participants adhere to the schedule to achieve the intended desired results.
