Have you ever noticed that the overwhelming majority of stories featured in the media are negative? It's no wonder so many people have a pessimistic and negative outlook of the future.

Despite the stories in mainstream media, I happen to be extremely optimistic about the future. As a matter of fact, I believe there has never been a better time to be alive on the planet than right now.

Obviously, I recognize the seemingly insurmountable obstacles currently facing our world, yet, I still maintain that the future is bright for those of us who are willing to take complete responsibility for our lives and are willing to create the lives of our dreams.

One of the reasons I'm so optimistic is because I overcame being a high school dropout, divorce, bankruptcy, foreclosure, depression, and being homeless for two years living out of my car. Now I am an entrepreneur, author, motivational speaker, and radio & TV host.

Therefore, if I can overcome all of those adversities, I am absolutely certain you can overcome any adversity in your life and that is the reason you should pick up a copy of my book so that I can share the lessons I've learned that helped me get my life back on track.

I know how difficult life can be at times. I know the heartache of a failed marriage, of losing your home to foreclosure and of losing a job and the family you love. I know what depression feels like when you want to give up because the world seems so dark. I know what it's like to be homeless and penniless and not knowing where your next meal is coming from. I know what it's like to feel like a complete failure and to feel unloved and unappreciated.

But I also know the joy of loving yourself and feeling happy and whole inside to a point where there is a constant feeling of gratitude that makes you smile all the time because you're so happy. I know what it feels like to be loved unconditionally by a partner who loves you just the way you are and adores and cherishes you in a way that makes your heart smile.

I know what it's like to be an amazing father who is admired by his children and are a part of an amazing legacy you will one day leave behind.

I know what it's like having a career that lights me up and fulfills me in every way imaginable and it gives me the opportunity to share my gifts with the world to make it a better place.

I know what it's like to wake up every day with a sense of optimism and purpose and knowing that I am in complete control of my destiny and nothing is impossible for me.

Don't you want to feel this way? Let me show you how!
