by La Tetra O., Philip Anthony Lewis Jr. (Foreword)

Have you ever felt excluded by motivational books that seem to overlook your unique struggles? "START WHERE YOU ARE" may have resonated with others, but it left you feeling invisible, talked over, and ignored. It's not their fault—they couldn't possibly understand the hardships you face. But fear not, because "Start Ghetto" is here to change the game. Written by someone who understands your journey, this book is a powerful resource for those who have struggled to break free from their own self-sabotaging loops and take the first steps towards their big, scary desires. In "Start Ghetto," you'll embark on a transformative journey that embraces the unideal as an integral part of your success story. Each page is a powerful charge to confront the real-life blockages standing in your way—without subjecting you to the well-meaning(?) abuse of toxic positivity.

Through this book, you'll discover the source of your own inertia and develop the meaningful self-talk required to set goals, plan effectively, and work with your odds—not against them. With over 200 pages of insightful content, "Start Ghetto" invites you to pull your own card and meet yourself where you are, embracing your unique circumstances—however "ghetto" they may be.

this book is so helpful. This book is like a self help book but without all the condescending BS. It actually helps you through the idea of becoming your best self and following your goals no matter what your walk of life is. It is very empowering and inclusive. I love it and have bought it for others and recommended it to many. A very easy read. I would say it is a "must have" for doers, and it is also interactive.

Definitely worth reading yearly. The author gives it to you straight up. It’s interactive in helping you write out your goals while you read and helping you understand why setting goals may not have worked in the past.
