If you enjoy non-fiction books, books about important people in our society, or novels that are intended to inspire and make a difference on us as a society, then this may just be the book for you. Being one who is not a huge fan of non-fiction books, I was skeptical as I picked up this book to read it. However, since reading it, it has made a lasting impact on my life and made me realize how my influence on others can always be a positive one, if only I do it with the right heart and the right mind.
