Reseña del libro "Success: For Minority Teens (& Their Friends): What does it take to be successful...Really? (en Inglés)"
Why do a few kids from the hood or barrios "make it" while most fail at life? Answer: The "lucky" few figured out the rules and type of mindset that leads directly to success.The principles of success can be learned by anyone at any age, but why wait to learn them after high school, when you've already messed up? In his first nonfiction book for teens, C. Osvaldo Gomez, a.k.a., Homie G, shares stories of his life coming of age in East Side San Jose, and how these led him to become the successful professional, investor, and part-time entrepreneur he is today. Homie G battled extreme obstacles: he was an undocumented immigrant from Mexico through the 1980's, living at home with an alcoholic and abusive father. He also struggled with anxiety and depression, and often got in trouble at school.Gomez gives minority teens and their friends unique advice on how to deal with racism, anger, abuse, bad parenting, poverty, bad relationships, school, and doubts about their futures. He provides easy to do at home exercises that can improve mood, focus, and motivation. He also tells teens exactly what they need to do to be successful in the 21st century. And no, going to a 4-year college is not his number one recommendation.If you're serious about not leaving your success in life up to chance, want to know how to become a young millionaire, and be a happy adult at the same time, this may be the most crucial book you'll ever read. In this book, you'll learn what success really is.In this book, you'll learn about the mindsets that are keeping you from "coming up" in life.In this book, you'll learn what school isn't teaching you about the 21st century.In this book, you'll learn what some college graduates have yet to learn about standing out from the crowd and hustling to out-compete others for jobs and big paydays.
