How to Guarantee Your Child Will Be Successful Even After They Leave The House!


Understanding the most critical factor to your child’s success: The Average of 5

It’s a very exciting time for many parents right now. Your child has finished another year of school. For many of you it means that your child has graduated from High School and is ready to embark onto the next phase of life on their own. You are filled with a lot of pride for this major milestone but then at some point a thought hits you like a blitzing NFL linebacker:
You realize that your little girl or little boy isn’t so little anymore and they are going to have to start making a lot of decisions that you will have no control or influence over. Will they be okay? Are they going to make the right decisions? And how can you know if they will make it or not?!?!

There is one pillar to a successful foundation that will allow you to easily gauge the chances of your child’s continued success. It’s the most important key to guarantee continued proper decision-making and staying out of trouble. In my new book, Your Starting Point For Student Success, we call this pillar of success “The Average of 5”

I am a Best Selling Author! and the Secret Formula I used to accomplish this goal


It has been a crazy journey, latent with failure after failure. Mess up after mess up, stress after stress. Anyone in my inner circle knows how crazy a process this has been. This dream has been something I fantasized about for so long and after making so many mistakes, I am proud to say that the hard work has paid off and I am officially the Best-Selling Author of Your Starting Point For Student Success. I reached the best seller list in 4 different categories on Amazon.com including #2 in the Self-Help Category! (Just under Wayne Dyer, not bad company I'd say)

It by no means was easy in any way but more fulfilling than I could have ever imagined. I have been running around, screaming, jumping off the walls, getting in touch with my family and friends to share in this moment. (I needed to slow down and drink some water because I nearly passed out from the excitement lol)

I am truly thankful to G-d for letting this dream become a reality, and I am thank for all of you that supported me on this mission.

Anything truly is possible. I went from being just a loser kid in the projects of Brooklyn to a Best Selling Author! I am certain the message of the book will positively impact the lives of all who read it, I am 100% certain of this.

I can say that this goal happened because I followed a very simple formula, a formula that applies to anything you want to achieve, anything.

I believe anything is possible when you follow this 5 step system for success
1) Choose Something you want
2) Find out the best approach in achieving your goal
3) Actually apply what you learned (this is an important part most people miss)
4) Go after it with pure passion and RECKLESS ABANDONMENT, make success the only option possible (surround yourself with this goal, dream about, make it part of your cells, breathe it, feel it)
5) Keep Going, no matter what, through all of the failures, mistakes, stress, negativity, nay-sayers and heartache, Keep going no matter what. As long as you keep going, failure can not win.

So, what is possible for you when you follow this system? What goal can you too achieve when you follow this simple yet extremely powerful formula. It works, every time.

I am so ecstatic right now to be living in this moment, to have reached this life-long dream. I truly am at a loss for words now, all I can say to everyone, to my creator, to everything is...Thank You...
