First and foremost, I am not an expert on any of the topics discussed in this book. I'm an average everyday person like most. Second, this isn't a book about martial arts. Sorry if it comes as a surprise given the title, and a surprise because, yes, that is what I do for a living. So, you're probably thinking "what is this book about?" Well, I will completely admit, I've made a lot of mistakes and screwed up a lot of things. But I think one thing that I've been fortunate with is that I'm pretty good about learning from those mistakes. So, I guess that's kind of the point of this book; from an average guy's point of view. In this book, I'll be telling stories that inspire others to strive harder and achieve more. So, relax and get ready to have a one-on-one conversation with me. Yes, this is a conversation between two people rather than a book. This is not me telling you how to live your life as you read these pages. Rather, as you hear about my life, you can be reflective and have ideas about your own.
