The emotion needs to be strengthened for optimum learning. Paul Tough wrote a book about the connection of heart and mind.

David Brooks even stressed Paul Tough, the author of "Helping Children Succeed" and "How Children Succeed" for he stated that no one is better regarding this matter but him.

Education is one of those circles where the heart is inseparable from the head, according to David Brooks. He emphasized that in order for a student to achieve his goals and fulfill his dreams, one should live in a home where the students feel secure and loved in order for them to be free from anxiety and fear. Students should also form strong bond with his teachers and should be showered with love so that they will have a sense of certainty about their own value and some feeling of organization about their own particular future. He strongly believes that the key fact to succeed is the strong bond between the student and the teacher.

David Brooks even said that parents are also a major factor in stabilizing their child's emotions. They should comfort their child whenever they are upset or sad.
