A Boss Called Dream: Equipping a Generation with Tools to Thrive, Win & Become - Paperback

by Titus L. Hopper (Author)

What happens to a child when no one tells them they have a dream worth chasing? Orphaned before his teenage years, raised by a village, and shaped by a set of tools he didn't fully understand until much later, Dr. Titus L. Hopper has spent over two decades watching what happens when young people are given a dream and what is lost when they are not. A Boss Called Dream is part memoir, part call to action, and part practical toolkit. Drawing on neuroscience, education research, and raw personal experience, Dr. Hopper identifies the tools that turn apathy into ambition. He highlights the tools of empathy, exposure, experience, belief, accountability, and resilience and shows exactly how they work in the lives of real young people. Students with dreams behave differently. A dream is more than just a wish, it is a compass. And a compass changes how a person moves. Whether you are a teen trying to figure out who you are, an adult who lost the thread of your own dream somewhere along the way, or an educator, parent, or mentor trying to reach the young person in front of you, this book was written for you. This literary work is a reminder that you were never meant to merely survive. You were built to thrive. You were designed to win. You are called to become.
