The Motivational book is very personal to the best-selling author. While Wooten guides readers into deep reflection he also shares his own self-reflection as well as poetry. The book also includes an audio version narrated by Wooten himself. The writing process helped the author realize his love for mentoring. Wooten’s goal is to positively influence Gen Z’ers and the youth. His book promotes self-reflection and confidence building.
“Anything is possible, as long as you work hard towards it and believe it. When I started my reflective journey I had to address everything I was doing wrong. I realized that a lot of the perceptions that I had in life were due to PTSD I suffered from due to the neighborhood I grew up in. Reprograming myself became a vital component of my mental and physical survival. I began to work harder and put a strong belief behind my goals. Once I did that everything began to fall into place. It is amazing how much Sacrifice, humbleness, and being true to yourself can do for a person,” Wooten stated.
