There is something almost magical about music. It plays on the emotions. We can all hear a specific song and it will immediately take us back to a particular place in time. It is almost like reliving the scenes of time past. This phenomenon is also true regarding rhymes. Studies have shown that rhymes help children learn more quickly and retain information longer. The importance of this fact becomes compounded when we are talking about the self-image and attitude of your child. In addition, children love bright colors. For this reason, all of Boomer's books are written in poetry form with full color illustrations. Boomer also likes the fact that children love dogs.

Abraham Lincoln stated: "The philosophy of government in one generation, will be the philosophy of government in the next." From a personal perspective, common sense should teach us that as goes the schools so goes the nation and it only takes one generation. If the above comments hold true, then we have a tremendous opportunity!

We attend school to be successful and it is good and right that we do so. However, practically all attributes we ascribe to successful individuals have to deal more with attitude and outlook on life then what subjects they studied in school. So here is the "million dollar" question. How many classes have we ever been taught on attitude? Considering the answer to the question, is it possible we might be missing the boat when it comes to our educational priorities? Imagine a generation of self-assured adults running government. Adults that as children also had impressed upon their minds a love of family and country, respect for authority, and civic responsibility. Boomer's Positive Lessons On Living are designed to make this vision a reality. These lessons taught to our youth made America a great nation. Although in recent years we have gotten away from these roots, we at Boomer's Positive Lessons On Living are not pessimistic about the future of America's children. WE NOW HAVE BOOMER! Boomer takes us back to the basics and forward to the future. He emphasizes the importance of self-image and attitude in the life of your child. We believe the best is yet to come!

Boomer's philosophy can be expressed in the poem below. It is the poem associated with Boomer's first book titled, You Were Born To Win. It is also the lyrics for the song of the same title on the CD, Boomer's Motivational Music for Children and the Family. You can listen to a sample of this song by clicking on the BOOMER MUSIC button above and scrolling down and clicking on the song's title. It is the same song that the former Miss Kentucky sings at school assemblies in Boomer's Born To Win Program: Standing Tall and Respecting All. Boomer's lessons are self-evident. Simply put, the psychology of Boomer is the psychology of winning!

YOU WERE BORN TO WIN

When you were in your crib tiny and small.
And everyone was looking at you one and all,
They smiled with pride and said again and again,
This child is special and was born to win!

Grandma and Grandpa, mom and dad too.
Brother and sister were all looking at you,
They just couldn't help getting a grin,
And saying this child is special and was born to win!

And now you're getting older and your friends are too,
And they keep saying there's nothing that you can't do,
Because you're kind to all and obey mom and dad,
You pick up your toys and go early to bed.

You're kind to your neighbors and all your friends too,
You share with them things that are special to you,
And children are so happy that you are their friend,
They know in their heart you were born to win.

So when you go to school and see children that are sad,
Pat them on the back and say it's not so bad.
Because I like you would you please be my friend,
Because you and I are special, we were born to win!
