I absolutely love and agree with Chapter 1 because I am a firm believer that we are what our minds contrive us to be. Through the limits of our own minds, we can be or not be anything we want. Our perception is what keeps us bound to or frees us from the constraints of society and regulations. We can either struggle against the shackles of our limitations or adapt to our possibilities.

I too was excited when I started reading this months book. I love the way it has been making me think about my life and how I want to apply this to my classroom. It is far to easy to fall into a pattern and forget about all the new things that we can try. I don't want to become one of my former teachers that had every detail of the year planned out before the school year started, just pulling out the notes from the past 5 years without any modification or changes to meet the needs of individual students. I want to think outside the box, and teach my students to do the same.
