Give them the power they were created to have.

Weaving a tale of drama, heartache, and failure to the path led him to figure out what it takes to come in first and why it mattered.\u003cbr\u003eHis childhood recollection of \"never being good enough\" morphs into a world of delusions of grandeur as his search for fame seems never to materialize, which causes him to create his own definition of fame.\u003cbr\u003eIt is a story of redemption and success after years of searching helped him realize that he had to let go of the fame of the past (which never existed) and begin living in the present in order to secure his future.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 398\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 14, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47457643266301,"sku":"9781956906127","price":49.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/ZkptNm1tWFB3WW1lWHJFWTdCK1UvQT09.webp?v=1777242551","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/the-16th-second-the-wild-life-and-crazy-times-of-colt-michael-what-really-happened-hardcover","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
