Whether you're a nurse, a police officer, working the register at a fast food restaurant, or whatever, your future can be bigger and brighter than you probably think.

¿ turn failures and defeats into opportunities for victory;
¿ increase your level of determination;
¿ handle stress that goes along with everyday life; and
¿ reject lifestyle changes that endanger success.
They also explain the fundamental difference between a reaction and a response, share strategies on building an action plan, and reveal how to start over and find new purpose in life-no matter how old you are.
