I really related to this book. The events in his life were similar to my struggles and it seemed like he was talking about my life. This book gave me strength to overcome some horrible events in my life.

This book helped me see past the problems in my life and to dig deep to see why I’m constantly faced with tragedies in my life. It helped me to realize that I was addicted to these problems and as such I was always making bad choices.

The book has a great flow to it and a lot of helpful tools, such as organizing your schedule with colors. Another good tip is to find a good life coach, and while I would love that idea, it’s not actually feasible for many people in the U.S. because of monetary limitations. The people who need life coaches the most are barely scraping by because of monetary disadvantages due to their low income status.

I give this book a 4 out 5 because I think he writes it from a perspective of monetary advantage. He doesn’t actually understand what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck, not being able to eat for weeks at a time, homeless, and having no hope.
