Description

From homeless high school dropout to one of the most sought after motivational speakers in the country, Eric Thomas has truly found the Secret 2 Success. In this, his debut autobiography, Eric shares that secret with
the rest of the world. By chronicling his days sleeping in abandoned buildings in the unforgiving Detroit winters, to his rise as a successful husband, father, CEO, educator and motivational speaker, Eric inspires the masses to
reach greatness.
In 2009 one of Eric’s speeches entitled Secrets 2 Success surfaced on YouTube and quickly went viral reaching over 1 million views. It was the response to this video and the subsequent thousands of emails and phone call
from viewers ranging from high school teachers and students, to professional athletes and CEO’s of fortune 500 companies seeking Eric’s advice on how to reach their maximum potential that ultimately led to the writing of this
book. In the book, Eric not only details his struggles and successes, he also provides invaluable advice on how anyone can take their life from its current state to places they never dreamed imaginable.

    Off the charts motivation. This book demonstrates what it means to want to succeed. I need to want something as much as I want to breathe not only puts it into familiar perspective, but grants a comparison that not many people would normally grasp.
  • Title Change: God's Plan.

    A book more about Eric Thomas himself, rather than the "secret to success." Even near the end he wrote "there is no secret formula to success." Overall though, if you want to become a good teacher / role model, well this is the book for you.
