This book was written to help those who dare, who want to break through to the top, social, professional, financial, creative. This book should sober up those who think that it is good where we are not. The essence of this book is to provide elementary explanations of simple techniques for achieving goals based on examples from the author’s life and his personal observations. There is no need to overexert yourself to get what you want. The secret is choosing the right tools. You need to understand and apply simple rules and techniques. The tips given here do not require much effort to apply. Many tips concern not what to do, but what it is better not to do. The book is based on the personal experience of the author, who survived the fractures of several eras in Russia, and then started life with a clean slate in the USA, arriving there at the end of 2010 without money, language and friends. This is a fascinating experience of how ingenuity and the will to win allow any person to overcome difficult and even hopeless situations. Photo of the author on the cover.
