The Motivation Mindset Workbook: Helping Teens and Tweens Discover What They Love to Do

What are my strengths? What makes me happy? What do I wish the adults in my life understood? These simple yet challenging questions are especially crucial for the many tweens and teens today who seem to have lost interest in everything (except possibly their phones!). Harvard psychologist Ellen Braaten’s Bright Kids Who Couldn’t Care Less offered an in-depth look at motivational difficulties and how to overcome them. Now Dr.

Braaten and Dr. Hillary Bush present The Motivation Mindset Workbook, bursting with practical tools and activities to unleash kids’ excitement and engagement with the world. Parents can use this book to help their child discover what they love to do and vault over obstacles holding them back.

Teachers and therapists will find innovative, science-based ways to light the spark of motivation with individuals or groups. Note: The e-book edition offers fillable, downloadable versions of the book’s 82 worksheets.
