his story breaks down my life in chronological order to convey the trials and tribulations I have faced as an adolescent getting in trouble with the law, risking my freedom for financial gain, getting caught up with the wrong crowd and how each experience had taught me valuable lessons which I was able to use to my advantage to find my purpose through a series of both unfortunate and fortunate events. After overcoming many forms of adversity in life, business, and work I was able to make a complete 360 by adopting a new perspective on life by educating myself on self-development and implementing practices to recreate my thought patterns. By doing so allowed me to set myself up for success which allowed me to find my major purpose in the field of investing and trading the stock market. I want to ensure you finish this book with more than motivation or inspiration to go after your goals, which is why I included valuable knowledge that scratch the surface on the basics of investing and how anyone can begin building wealth starting today. Along my journey I had come to the realization that adversity is the building blocks to all success by reflecting on my past mistakes and failures which enabled me to piece together the puzzle of growth and had also given me a great sense of self-awareness and motivation to pass forward my knowledge gained through my experience in order to portray to the reader that the more mistakes we make the faster we succeed in the journey we call life.
