The power of positive thinking in Star Wars

I’m am a mother, which means I’m naturally drawn to things that encourage and improve children’s learning. I’m also a child of the 80’s and had a mom that was a huge fan of Star wars, which means I grew up surrounded by the original Star Wars trilogy – Episodes IV, V, and VI, respectively. I’ve watched all 3 films literally dozens of times on top of the prequels.Believe it or not, these movies got me through some pretty hard times during my youth. It really does reinforce positive thinking. For example here are a few Inspirational Quotes From ‘Star Wars’ and George Lucas:
