From the Author:
I wrote HEART! as my good friend and professional colleague, Richard DuFour was beginning his final journey through Stage IV lung cancer. An inspirational educational leader, he had left his Heartprint not only on me, but thousands of other educators. It was my initial intent to reveal lessons he had taught me over the years about our profession. However, along the way, despite his own pain, he challenged me to expand the book to include the wisdom of many. When you read the Epilogue, know that those words reveal my reflections on the day of his final public message. As I began to write HEART!, I realized I wanted to speak through the vehicle of story, provide insight to the reader from thought leaders inside and outside of our profession, and ultimately allow the reader to tell their own educational story - to discover or re-discover their fundamental purpose for joining our great profession. And to do so, either in self-study or group (book club style) study.  Eventually, each letter of the word HEART became an important part of the book and represented chapters of ideas reflecting both the struggle and the triumph of our daily work life as teachers and leaders. How can we live a professional life, school season after school season, that does not wear us down, or cause us to lose hope? A good friend of mine and loving critic, told me during the early and painful iterative stages of the manuscript process, "Above all else, make sure you take good care of the reader". In the end, I suppose you will have to decide if I succeeded!
