Opis

"Life is all about making choices" (Road to Barrister: An Urban Monologue, page 61). Every day we wake up, we have a choice. We choose to get out of bed on the right side or the wrong side. We choose whether it will be a good day or bad. We choose whether we are going to be happy or not. Road to Barrister: An Urban Monologue (RTB) by Yusef Poole can help anyone identify those choices; now, this Discussion Book can help evaluate the consequences of those choices. Poole is one of very few guys in his neighborhood with whom he grew up who never sold drugs. Imagine the temptation he had to overcome . . . the pressure. So what made him different? Surprising to some, Poole describes himself as "no different from the next person." In his early years, he saw the world for what it is, he was able to discern the difference between good and evil, and he chose sensibly. His priorities included God, family, academics, and finally, law school. Along his journey, he kept his eyes open and realized some essential truths regarding his success, why he chose the way he did, and he came to understand some of the problems plaguing society. Poole puts transparency to the test by describing personal events-failures and successes-that led him to make wise choices. In RTB, he identifies choices and pitfalls, and provides a template, if you will, on how to make the right decisions in life. He provides a guide for others to achieve success. As students work through The Discussion Book, they have access to highly desirable and necessary real world skills such as: Collaboration Critical Thinking Problem Solving Creative Innovation Communication They will discover in realistic terms, through someone else's eyes, that every cause has an effect. Ideally, they will see the hardship that comes along with addressing issues by trial-and-error, and come to understand true advantages of learning from the mistakes of others versus having to personally endure those mistakes."
