YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I AM. A NAME MEANS NOTHING.

BEING BORN MEANS NOTHING AND DYING MEANS NOTHING TO THOSE OF US WHO DON'T LEARN. .

WHAT DOES MEAN SOMETHING IS WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN BEING BORN AND DYING. IT'S CALLED LEARNING AND IT'S NEVER COMPLETELY SUCCESSFUL.

BUT IF YOU LISTEN TO THE WISDOM IN THIS LITTLE BOOK AND FOLLOW THE ADVICE AND RULES GIVEN TO ALEX, YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF FAR MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE, NOT IN MONEY BUT IN KNOWING YOURSELF AS YOU SHOULD BE. .

. HAVE FUN WITH ALEX IN THE ADVENTURE OF HIS LIFE AND PERHAPS WRITE DOWN OR UNDERLINE WHAT ALEX WAS TOLD AND SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO.

AND FINALLY LISTENED TO JUST IN TIME. BEST OF LUCK AND GOD BLESS.

" MR. B.

, A TEACHER OF MIDDLE SCHOOL HARD CORE KIDS WHO HAVE BECOME CONFIDENT NURSES, LAWYERS, BUSINESSMEN AND WOMEN, COLLEGE GRADUATES AND FINALLY, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY. TRUE FRIENDS TO THEMSELVES AND OTHERS.

Dear Reader, I come from another age. .

. 1939.

. .

and have ridden the train of life through many challenges. Many jobs with many lessons, some good some bad, but all with a purpose that led to a desire for the truth in life.

But of all the challenges I have met and benefited from, it is the years of teaching at-risk students in middle schools, counseling in rehab facilities, and private counseling in prisons. Praise Christ for these opportunities.
