My Thoughts
Conquering Adversity One Step At A Time is a collection of powerful stories of lessons learned and success gained by a combination of hard work, toughness gained through often-harsh life experience. The account is poignant, personal, and gripping. I was captivated by the end of the Preface. The author reveals himself and his pain in ways that are vulnerable and engaging. For every idea and insight he offers, he has a story from his own life. This makes the book believable and inspiring. Overall, this book has potentially life-changing value for anyone who resonates with Di Blaso’s experience.
What does taking a single step mean to you? Did you walk to work this morning, or simply walk to the car to drive to work? Did you walk to the kitchen to grab coffee or take the dog for a walk around the block? You probably take thousands of steps each day without realizing it because these steps are insignificant to you.
