The Element by Sir Ken Robinson
This amazing book opened up my eyes to learning. Learning is action. The Element is finding the space where learning, growth and happiness/fulfillment go together for you. So for each of us it is different. Take a minute to imagine that space - where you act in tune with who you are - you are a creative individual. Think about the people you lead....do you allow them to be in their element?
"People who think differently make the world a more interesting place. We need to nurture and help develop creative people, instead of labeling them as damaged."
[Temple Grandin, Author of
Thinking in Pictures]
"Ken Robinson presents the theme of creativity and innovation in a way that makes you want to go out and make your dreams a reality. In his wonderfully easy-to-read and entertaining style he presents the stories of many who have done just that. This is a valuable book for educators and community leaders ... most important, it is a book that lightens and lifts the minds and hearts of all who read it.
"
[Susan Jeffers, PhD., bestselling author of Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway® and Life Is Huge!
"The Element gives you the feeling that all is possible if we dig deeply within ourselves, utilizing imagination and curiosity."
[Vidal Sassoon, hairdresser and businessman] - (all reviews originally by theelementbook)
