A practical, yet inspirational work that proposes it’s the inner world of our psyches that determines happiness, not outside forces.

Dr. Spain shared a comprehensive story of her educational journey from the beginning to the end with achieving her doctoral degree. I was inspired by the individuals that provided mentoring, role modeling and seed planting. Her destiny appeared to be grounded by her faith, which her shared with others to help them achieve their intentions for obtaining a PhD. Most of all, Dr. Spain’s story was an easy read and I recommend you purchase the book, read her story and share your thoughts…

The story “How I Made It Over “ (Chapter 8) is an extremely empowering story. It is self-motivational for keeping a strong-minded individual with the will to succeed. In spite of obstacles, excuses, and events that could be a breaking point for anyone. After reading this empowering book, I felt like achieving my doctoral degree (Smile). I’m a retired senior citizen that enjoys good reading. I would recommend this empowering book to anyone who is ready to give up on achieving their goals in life.
