Author Description

Everyone has faced the problem of wanting to give up, especially during times of hardship. I will show you how to overcome this problem by staying persistent and keeping an open heart. Growing up fatherless in poverty-stricken Cambodia, as a child I was responsible for gathering my own food. During my adolescence, life wasn't any easier, and I suffered through physical and emotional abuse by the person I loved and respected the most, my mother. After that, I experienced the horror of being raped, and when I thought I'd overcome that nightmare, my boss then sold me as part of the sex slave trade. Rather than cave within my environment, I had realistic optimism that everything I dreamed of was possible. Within that framework of optimism, I learned English, made it to America, attained an education, and even fell in love, before starting a successful business in Beverly Hills, California. After reading Life Between Two Worlds, I promise you will be able to overcome adversity and conquer your goals. You will then take the word impossible, and remove it from your vocabulary, replacing it with the words, I can, I will, and I did. Don't wait, or the thought of giving up may very well defeat you. Equip yourself now with the inspiration found in these pages so that adversity and obstacles in life give way to you, and you find success. My life story provides many lessons including the importance of being appreciative, why you should never waste what you can share, the power of forgiveness, and how to turn tragedy into triumph.
