Dr. Watts explores the use of habits to successfully implement intervention that will positively impact all aspects of education including all stakeholders: policy makers, districts, schools, teachers, parent, community patterns, and students. We examine experiences, concepts, research, and statistics to make suggestions for change. It is easy to cast blame, but at times the only requirement is to rethink our actions, mindsets, attitudes or habits in order to be successful. Rethinking habits and their impact on success is a step in the right direction.
