I realized after reading '8 to Great' just how life changing the 8 High-Way processes are and why. First off it explains in detail the results of a positive attitude. How being grateful every day makes us happy no matter what the circumstances at the moment.
"Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day." ~ Author Unknown
I didn't grow up believing in myself. Then my youngest son didn't have anyone who believed in him, except for me. So I know how powerful it is to show kids, and adults, how a grateful attitude is the prelude in believing anything is possible. When they know anything is possible, they know they can believe in themselves and their dreams.
“Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment. There always is the potential to create an environment of blame -- or one that is conducive to loving-kindness.” - Pema ChodronI found out that MK Mueller offered training sessions for people to become Certified trainers. These trainers are then able to teach and reach more students and adults. So this summer I became a certified '8 to Great' trainer/presenter for the '8 to Great' program. It was developed from the book '8 to Great' by MK Mueller.
Originally the curriculum was created for 6 - 12 grades. Now it is taught not only taught in middle and high schools. It is taught in colleges, YMCA's, community centers, churches, summer camps.. the list is endless.
I would recommend the book and training to anyone. Both are life changing experiences, just on different levels. The list of ways to share '8 to Great' processes are endless. Here is the link to: MK Mueller's '8 to Great'. The website has endless resources and information. My hope that all children and adults learn to live each day being grateful and happy!
