Review Detail

Colton Fidelman has come up with the "TICK TOCK" method to help steer teens down a more successful path in life no matter what they're going through. Referencing statistics and pop culture, Colton keeps things relevant to teenagers so it not only holds their interests, but it also helps them grasp and retain it. The TICK TOCK method is an acronym that is broken down into eight steps: Taming Social Media, Inspiring Hard work, Choosing a Mentor, Knowing Your Struggles, Treasure Beyond Money, Owning Your Passion, Cultivating Relationships, and Knowledge Expansion. The author expands on each of these subjects and gives teens the tools they need to make smarter decisions.

When Colton Fidelman was going through a hard time at hime, he changed his mindset and the TICK TOCK method was born. His story is a relatable one that shows teens they're not alone in their struggles. Instead of taking on a negative outlook, this guide reshapes how we see the world. Life isn't easy but it's what you make of it that's most important.

THE TEENAGE GUIDE TO SUCCESS is a guidebook for teenagers to start building a meaningful and happy life at a young age. I love how the author addresses social media because it has such an impact on teenagers today, and it isn't always in a positive light. I also like how he encourages teenagers to find a mentor because changing your life for the better is easier when you have someone to not only support you, but to hold you accountable. Humans are social creatures and having someone else's reassurance can go a long way.


Final Verdict: Overall, Colton Fidelman's TICK TOCK method is perfect for teenagers who want to live in a positive mindset with a good outlook on the future. With how bleak things can seem, this book helps mold thinking patterns into positive ones while being mindful of the choices you make. I would recommend this to teens aged sixteen and older who are ready for a change for the better and for those who need the reassurance that life doesn't have to be a negative one.
