This inspiring account, based on personal experience, offers a practical way to cope with life’s trials—a kind of “vaccine” of joy and faith in one’s own abilities. Looking at those who have achieved success, it’s hard to imagine that at one time they didn’t start from the top. The author candidly shows that the road to recognition is rarely smooth: it includes setbacks, blows dealt by fate, and unexpected turns. And yet this is a story about how you can rise above your circumstances—honestly, with warmth, a smile, and inner support.
