Writing this book has been a three-year process. Why you ask? Because I didn't have all of my thoughts together to complete it. I had to get out of my own way mentally and refocus my priorities. As a man, husband, father of 5, soldier in the United States Army, life can get hectic in today's society. I've struggled a lot, one reason being I found my way in this world without my father but a great support system instead. I always wondered "where is the rule book to this thing called life?" This book is not a rule book to life, instead, tools to help you build a foundation to have a successful path to happiness. Happiness with self, happiness with relationships, happiness with love, and happiness within society. My hope is that you can take some of the lessons learned through my perspective on the chapters I've shared to create your own platform of peace. You create the journey and you create the ending.
