When I read The Exceptionals, I thought it was almost a Gods gift that I could have content like this available to help me guide my students and children to achieve success. What I took away from the book was how you can become a world changer. I especially loved the idea of microexcellence. I was so excited and inspired after reading the book that I asked my two sons to read one chapter a day and then process the information and prepare a summary that we could discuss. I think this book is going to play an instrumental role in their development. It provides us with the blueprint on what to focus on.
