I rate this book 4 out of 4 because it was exceptionally well edited. I recommend this book first to parents. This book reminds them that any neglect can get their child damaged. Also for teens, this book teaches them that regardless of their circumstances and how debasing their situation is, they can still achieve success. Finally, this book is a perfect fit for anyone seeking to improve his or her life.

Kirkus Reviews

The arc of Smith’s life is extraordinary – he managed to become an accomplished businessperson and family man after years of drug-addled purposelessness. His candor is also remarkable – he spares no punches when it comes to self-judgement and chronicles of foibles in granular detail.

By the time I was 8 years old I had a pretty good sense that it was going to be entirely up to me to carve my own path toward whatever I was going to become in the world.

Nothing is as good as it seems and nothing is as bad as it seems. So your highs aren’t really as high — or they shouldn’t be, and your lows aren’t really as low. This too shall pass.
