Acerca de este título
For too long, we've believed that stellar grades, high test scores, and prestigious college acceptance guarantee a successful life. But the data tells a different story: the skills that predict long-term achievement, job satisfaction, and well-being have been hiding in plain sight all along.
What if the key to thriving in our rapidly changing world isn't about checking boxes on a college application, but about developing the foundational abilities that help young people adapt, connect, and flourish?
Academic advisor and early career development expert Ana Homayoun has spent over twenty-five years discovering what truly makes the difference. In Getting In Is Not Enough, she reveals the research-backed skills that predict everything from college graduation rates to life satisfaction—and how to develop them.
With her refreshing, solutions-oriented approach, Homayoun provides a practical blueprint for helping students build the capabilities employers now prioritize, and researchers have proven make the difference, including how to:
• Master executive functioning skills that research shows predict academic achievement and life satisfaction years later
• Build authentic social capital through genuine connections that open doors and expand perspectives
• Identify personal energy patterns and create sustainable systems for success
• Develop adaptability and resilience that can turn setbacks into growth opportunities
• Cultivate the skills employers now prioritize over technical credentials
Through compelling storytelling, current research, and proven strategies, Homayoun's empowering approach offers a complete reimagining of what preparation for adulthood really looks like. Getting In Is Not Enough is essential reading for parents, educators, and anyone invested in helping young people create their own paths to meaningful success.
Reseñas de la crítica
“Getting into college has become an endless series of jumping through hoops for teenagers, yet when they get to campus they don’t often know their purpose for being there. . . . In this timely and important book, Ana Homayoun gives students and families the blueprint they need to launch into a fulfilling life and engaging career. At a time when the skills needed to keep up in any job are churning at an ever faster pace, Homayoun provides us with a guide to the foundational skills that will help us succeed no matter what.”—Jeffrey Selingo, New York Times best-selling author of Who Gets In and Why and There Is Life After College
“Erasing the Finish Line is the book I will recommend over and over in the coming years, a gift to parents, educators, and adolescents confused by the conflicting demands of achievement and fulfillment.”—Jessica Lahey, New York Times best-selling author of The Gift of Failure and The Addiction Inoculation
“Ana Homayoun has given parents a blueprint for guiding all kids—not just the most advantaged—in the “how,” not the “what,” of authentic, lifelong success. . . . What matters most are the skills our kids use to make sense of [things to] take on life’s challenges. . . . This book will come as a relief for every parent who wants to help strengthen the bones of the building [and] not just its façade.”—Rachel Simmons, Author of Odd Girl Out and Enough As She Is
“Eye-opening and compelling, this book has the answers that parents and educators need right now. We’ve been mismeasuring achievement and pushing kids toward the wrong goals. Homayoun shows us how to shift our mindsets and nurture the real skills children need to identify and fulfill their own aspirations.”—Jordan Shapiro, Author of Father Figure and The New Childhood
“Goodbye to the false finish line! Ana Homayoun is stoking important conversations, and we can only hope parents, teachers, and counselors are listening. I love her empowering, open-minded approach to guiding young adults on their varied paths to adulthood.”—Mary Laura Philpott, Author of Bomb Shelter: Love, Time, and Other Explosives
“What’s more important than any acceptance letter? Self-acceptance. . . . This book is practical, extraordinarily empathetic, and a breath of fresh air, and it’s just what the doctor ordered for anxious parents and anxious teens alike.”—Anya Kamenetz, Author of The Stolen Year and The Art of Screen Time
