Thoughts Become Things So many people I know say they hate reading. What they seem not to get is that a book is an alternate universe, where you can go anywhere, or choose to just set the book down and leave that universe alone. -Zeke Willey
The steps to success are arranged in this chronological order:
Visualization ===> Thoughts ===> Action ===> Results
First, we visualize. Then, we summon up our talents, charm and virtues and act on our dreams. We become as powerful as the protagonists in our favorite stories and defeat the obstacles along the way. Finally, we live our dreams. In every step of the way, reading helps.
Making dreams come true: Stories can bring us to wonderlands that we have yet to imagine prior to reading a book. Through stories, our dreams are either created or expanded into our own reality.
Here are some characters we meet in fairytales:
1. Snow White represents the danger in being an object of envy.
2. Little Red Riding Hood is an ordinary girl who has great devotion to her grandmother and the big bad wolf is literally and figuratively a wolf dressed in sheep's clothing.
3. The Ugly Duckling, before its swan hood stage had to cope with issues concerning rejection and poor self esteem.
4. Cinderella is the epitome of a person whose transformation from a dirty ash girl to a lovely bride happened because of hard work and charm-attributes which can help us succeed in life.
In both work and play, we meet our own versions of Snow Whites, Riding Hoods, big bad wolves and ugly ducklings. We have bosses and friends who can be as kind as the huntsman in Red Riding Hood or as cunning as the witch in Snow White. Cinderella inspires everyone -students, workers and even office managers to be as humble, hardworking and charming as Cinderella.
Aside from fairy tale characters, there are embellished heroes like Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyan; Davy Crockett and the seven Chinese brothers who solve problems in funny and exaggerated ways; the wily tricksters like Anansi who's capable of outwitting the gods and lots of people whose brains are filled with noodles and do foolish things. We call them noodlehead characters.
In nonfiction reading, think about what we could learn from the biographies of successful people like Thomas Edison, Helen Keller, Bill Clinton, Beatrix Potter, Hans Christian Anderson and so many more.
Children are able to empathize with these characters in some way or another. Reading about the characters' adventures and misadventures; their successes and follies and their vices and virtues can guide our children into undertaking the most appropriate actions and solving problems in the most intelligent way.
Reading also prepares our children to deal with all the types, shapes, sizes and characters of people they will be meeting in real life. It makes them realize the consequences of certain actions; magnifies the mistakes to avoid and guides them to the right directions.
