Synopsis

How do you help your kids earn money as they learn how to be successful in life?

Ever since an early age Gracen loved building and flying planes-from ultralight competitive rubber-band-powered balsa planes that flew for over two minutes to self-designed and built-from-scratch remote control planes.

When Gracen was 10 years old, and needed a way to fund his hobby, his dad told him that every time he read a personal development book and wrote a list of the lessons he learned from it, he would pay Gracen $10.

Over the next couple of years Gracen read over 80 books.

He's been applying what he learned ever since. The principles in these books work if you work them. The results speak for themselves.

Gracen is a top student with a 4.21 GPAHe's a two-time Colorado State Judo Champion.He's wrestled in the Colorado State Championships.He owns and operates a 3D printing and design business that sells high-quality engineering models around the world.He teaches blacksmithing, metallurgy and blade-smithing at a trade shop school.He gives presentations on 3D printing and CAD to local STEM groups.He's been playing piano for 11 years and he leads a worship group at his church.Gracen serves in his church's children's ministry and he's a youth religious education student leader.

Gracen always wanted to write a book so we decided to take some of the things he learned from his favorite books and share them here, so that more people will start reading personal development books to better themselves.

Launch Pad is filled with tips from Gracen's favorite history, leadership, teamwork, success and free enterprise books.

We hope that some of the things you learn here will help you achieve your goals as well.
