Inhaltsangabe:

In Be Somebody, Lin Appling invites, encourages, and inspires his readers to dream and to plan, but he avoids the Â"pie-in-the-skyÂ" attitude of some motivational authors. By offering his own story as an example of our ability to beat the odds, Appling provides his readers with the twelve keys to success. Being born into a family of fourteen in a rural community in Georgia during segregation, Appling knows firsthand how tough it can be to rise to the top: attaining success requires discipline, commitment, and honest self-appraisal.

DonÂ’t buy this book - unless you are absolutely committed to making a positive difference in your life.
