Before Larry Jones became a successful businessman, he had to overcome some of his own battles. Growing up as an abused child, he struggled with defining his identity, which led to lots of fighting and a harsh tongue. As a single father, Larry suffered a divorce, being broke, homelessness, divisive co-parenting, and PTSD. He imparts his knowledge through his journey of hardship and lessons learned, perfect examples of how anyone can withstand the challenges of life.
I can attest to the fact that we're not all "born with a silver spoon in our mouths." Just take a moment right now to imagine what life would be like for you if most of the things we often take for granted were not there for you. No good food, clean clothes, lack of physical and emotional security, no validation from your parents and loved ones, no proper home to live in, and several other things that we all regard as the basics of living a comfortable life.
Now, I need you to imagine that you were just a child – a very young child in your "parents" home – but living in the environment, we earlier explained with virtually no hope of redemption from the extent of suffering you were going through. Like an endless reign of misery in your life! I have a question for you right now, how terrible and nasty does your upbringing as a child have to be before you'll undoubtedly fail in life as an adult or even die young?
