Banishment from his life’s calling can’t keep a comically overconfident detective down in the latest episode by New York Times bestseller Stephan Pastis. This book was never meant to exist.

The Gift of Failure
Author: Jessica Lahey
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062299247
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
The New York Times bestselling, groundbreaking manifesto on the critical school years when parents must learn to allow their children to experience the disappointment and frustration that occur from life’s inevitable problems so that they can grow up to be successful, resilient, and self-reliant adults Modern parenting is defined by an unprecedented level of overprotectiveness: parents who rush to school at the whim of a phone call to deliver forgotten assignments, who challenge teachers on report card disappointments, mastermind children’s friendships, and interfere on the playing field. As teacher and writer Jessica Lahey explains, even though these parents see themselves as being highly responsive to their children’s well being, they aren’t giving them the chance to experience failure—or the opportunity to learn to solve their own problems. Overparenting has the potential to ruin a child’s confidence and undermine their education, Lahey reminds us. Teachers don’t just teach reading, writing, and arithmetic. They teach responsibility, organization, manners, restraint, and foresight—important life skills children carry with them long after they leave the classroom. Providing a path toward solutions, Lahey lays out a blueprint with targeted advice for handling homework, report cards, social dynamics, and sports. Most importantly, she sets forth a plan to help parents learn to step back and embrace their children’s failures. Hard-hitting yet warm and wise, The Gift of Failure is essential reading for parents, educators, and psychologists nationwide who want to help children succeed.

The dream and purpose of this book and his path until today is to help anyone who has a dream and is currently feeling lost, or hopeless, create ideas that he or she is not achieving these dreams and goals due to not having the background, and conditions that the author calls Failure, having plenty of his own to share, but has such a higher and clear why behind this person, why he wants this goal, why it’s important not just for him but many, immediately invalidates any reason behind why he can’t and believes one day it is possible and all starts, continues and finishes in them, what the author calls Success. Bruno does not believe there is a secret to achieving your goals and dreams. Only with hard work, dedication, consistency, perseverance and belief someone can achieve whatever dream a person has. How distant it might feel right now is not important since everything is a beginning but focus on what you want to be, what you will have, give to others and one day help someone to achieve what was a dream for you and a dream for them now. It is hard to understand in life that sometimes no matter how hard you will try, how prepared you can be for this attempt to achieve your goals you still might fail.
