But his mother encouraged him to succeed, and Ben discovered a deep love of … The young Ben struggles at school and gets low grades, then her mother forces them to drop watching TV and playing outside. He shows everyone how everything is achievable if you’re willing to focus, work hard continuing to improve your best efforts. A surgeon's long journey from knife-wielding, street fighter in Detroit to master of the scalpel--a leader in pediatric neurosugery. Very few people openly speak about their adversity, the role of their faith and the role of personal application and hardwork in one book to such amazing effect. I've been doing more motivational speaking and actually included similar motivational words as Dr. Carson used without reading this book. Buy this for a young (or older) person to inspire them

My first reading of Dr. Carson’s story happened when I was 18 years old. Many of the factors he narrates that were important to his own success -- caring adults who nurtured and pushed him to learn and excel; a "growth mindset" that allowed him to learn that he could learn, grow, and change; a goal toward which he was working -- fit with the broader literature/research about how students/people learn and grow best.This is the true story of a remarkable man, and what led to his success. They're back again!” I'd laugh, trying everything within the power of my small hands to make his veins stay down. While on holiday to the US, I happened to get hold of this book in one of the Christian stores. In Gifted Hands, he tells of his inspiring odyssey from his childhood in inner-city Detroit to his position as director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital at age 33. Fair enough. Not only did a poor black man living in the ghetto of Detroit get an amazing education, he also became one of the most famous neurosurgeons in America. In his book, Gifted Hands, Ben recounts his rise from abject poverty in inner-city Detroit to become a world-renowned pediatric neurosurgeon at prestigious John's Hopkins University. Not so much the educational part of tough up bringing, but his thought processes. I went to see him speak at TSU in Nashville some years ago while I was in dental school at Meharry Medical College. The champion didn’t go into the gym one day and start lifting 500 pounds. She married at 13, and when Ben and his brother were young boys, they found out that his dad was a bigamist.

Your recently viewed items and featured recommendations Even with all his famous surgeries he thanks God for being there and helping him out. My second reason for finding him interesting is that my son-in-law is in residency for neurosurgery and everyone tell me neurosurgeons are mean, so I wanted to find out what a neurosurgeon's life is really like. I’m so happy that I read this. We’d love your help. And if you look at these obstacles as a containing fence, they become your excuse for failure. Words make themselves into thoughts and concepts.

She fostered the attitude---You are responsible for your life success--if you work hard you will succeed---if you are not succeeding, it's YOUR responsibility to make the changes to succeed!! What happens when folks pray and God says no or they don't get the same result Carson did? Gifted Hands will transplace you into the operating room to witness surgeries that made headlines around the world, and into the private mind of a compassionate, God-fearing physician who lives to help others. The movie starring Cuba Gooding Jr. is also very good.
