My ultimate goal is to make a difference in my own life, as well as the lives of those that I encounter. I had no problem accepting help when necessary, but I totally refused to accept pity. I didn’t want an excuse not to be successful. Yet, I found out that there are plenty of people out there who are willing to give you many reasons to fail. Some basic reasons are poverty, a broken home, abuse, lack of education and physical disability. I learned from the great speaker and writer, Jim Rohm, that these are all part of a disease called “excusitis.”
This book will be a success if it encourages just one person to make a difference with his or her life, and if it convinces readers not to give up on themselves—even if society gives up on them.
