Summary

"Human lives are endlessly variable, yet our most memorable positive moments are dominated by four elements: elevation, insight, pride, and connection. Many of these are the result of accident or luck--but why would we leave our most meaningful, memorable moments to chance when we can create them? What if a teacher could design a lesson that students would remember twenty years later? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children? The Power of Moments shows us how to be the author of richer experiences"--Back cover
