Counselors, parents, and teachers will find this book to be one of the most unique, thought-provoking, practical, and somewhat unconventional guides they've ever picked up. It is based on recent research that tells us that a person's grit (hard work, determination, perseverance) combined with good soft (social) skills are better predictors of future success than IQ, grade point averages, and standardized test scores. Although the book focuses on several serious topics, it is filled with humor, short stories, and motivational quotes. Readers will discover:

<li>Tips for increasing one's GQ (Grit Quotient) </li>
<li>Descriptions of the four components of GRIT G: Getting along with others R: Responsibility I: Integrity T: Tenacity

</ul>

Monday Morning Messages is truly an inspirational read for people of all ages. Not only is it a book of reflection but also one of motivation. Tom had taken stories from everyday life and added "follow-up" activities to reinforce each lesson. The 52 stories (one for every Monday during the year) can be read and discussed with students at school or home to strengthen their personal character. Readers are encouraged to start each week with a meaningful and powerful story. The stories focus on many vital character traits such as compassion, patience, determination, persistence, and goal-setting.
