SynopsisA hard-luck story with a lesson to learn, this guide offers readers solid advice on making choices and making changes in their lives. Fifteen years ago, the author was a drop out, drug addict, and deadbeat dad who had turned to bank robbery and landed in prison; now, he shares what has made it possible for him to become a college graduate, responsible father, and acclaimed public speaker. From his example, readers will learn how to change their lives and commit to being better people by accepting responsibility for--and making the most of--every choice they face. The inspiring story and reliable advice combine to offer a uniquely insightful plan of attack for those who want to take control of their situations and set themselves on the path to success.
