Hope is the belief that destiny will not be written for us, but by us - Barack Obama I finished reading chapter 5 of Barack Obamas “A Promise Land” book, and at least for the end of the chapter, it really focused on 2 main things, confidence and momentum. This specific part of the chapter/book was about the end of his running for nomination as president. Competing against large names such as Hillary and John Edwards, who both had substantial resources and experience in compar

Supercar/BMW Cruise from SLO to Big Sur! So for this blog post, I decided to change things up rather than doing a reading or listening to a podcast. I decided to talk about a conversation I had with one of my mentors, and hopefully help someone out there.

And I thought what better way than to learn from real business owners, and fortunately for m

(Fun Fact: Barack Obama used the same bible to be sweared in as president that Abraham Lincoln used) For my next few blog posts I decided to focus on the content I learned from Barack Obama's Book “A Promise Land”. I finished reading chapter 4 and I am now diving into chapter 5 wich has a similar focus on choosing to run for president or abstaining. In chapter ⅘ he was still in the midst of weighing out his options on running for president. His family, happiness, impact, and

Fun Fact: Barack Obama had a life with exposure to varying cultures because of the places he lived at such as Indonesia and Hawaii So for this blog post I decided to write about my readings of Barack Obama's book “A Promise Land”.

So I received a book from Ms. Stillitano that I ordered called A Promised Land, by Barack Obama. This is his autobiography, and as of now, I am about 30 pages in, so not a lot, but enough to explain a bit about the book. I hope to keep writing more of these to give whoever is interested some in
