Jesse S. Smith wants to help YOU live your best life. After his own personal journey to rock bottom and back, the ideas described in this book motivated Smith to campaign for public office, work on a movie film crew, run his first half-marathon: and more! Smith's inspiring life story demonstrates that our mistakes and disappointments do not need to limit us. We can return to the light, and live a more fulfilling life in pursuit of our own powerful sense of purpose. Now Smith is excited to share with you the concepts and philosophy of self-help, and hopes that these ideas will benefit you and help you in your own life as much as they have helped him in his.
