... "It was mid-1991 and my high school years were coming to an end. My senior year was less than stellar at South Miami Senior High School. I had been working nearly full-time since the age of twelve. My parents were divorced when I was twelve, and little did I know, the effects of that would last the rest of my life. I was eighteen at this point and no one seemed to care about my future. If they did, no one told me. My mother was still too busy grieving over the divorce, and my brother had dropped out of high school and was facing health challenges. I surely didn't want to continue onto the "thirteenth" grade, as most would call it at the local community college. What for, anyway? So that I could see the same people and do the same things over and over? I had once been very hopeful of pursuing a career in art. I was and probably still am a bit talented in the fine arts department. I attended magnet schools for art in both junior high and high school. Working all the time, joining the wrestling and football teams, and dealing with the drama at home distracted me enough to the point where thoughts of a career in the art world went south, and so did my grades.
What is an eighteen-year-old to do with such a bleak outlook? Well, lucky for me, there was a war getting started in the Persian Gulf. Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm had been launched, and that sounded a lot more exciting than math at the local college. I also felt a deep-seated obligation to join the military. This country had provided my family so many opportunities. Why would any able-bodied young American not join? I was naturalized as a U.S. citizen around the age of ten, so I fit the bill. Recruiting for the military must be as frustrating as many sales jobs. In the years prior, I had been called and courted a dozen times to see a local recruiter but that never fancied me. I never had any interest in it. However, with graduation approaching, and my lack of options looming, joining the military began to appear more appealing. This would be one of the first "opportunistic" decisions I made. It gave me something to look forward to and a sense of purpose." ...
This book is absolutely a must have in every man’s repertoire of personal development resources. Thousands will be inspired by it. The easy-to-read style allows for fast assimilation and applicability. If you’re looking for a some motivation and clearer perspective on life’s events, this gem of a book is for you.
