Urban Youth Survival Guide: A Manual for Overcoming the Odds

Split second decisions can drastically change our lives. Without time to consider possible outcomes, we can do something in a moment that changes our trajectory; finding ourselves in predicaments we never saw coming. Influences shape our perspectives which trigger initial reactions. What one person calls bad, another calls good. "Do not be deceived: 'Evil company corrupts good habits'" (1 Corinthians 15:33). We are faced with many decisions throughout the day ranging from routine to life-altering. Knowing this, we must take the necessary initiative to prepare for successful outcomes. We must learn how to respond instead of react. In the Urban Youth Survival Guide, Dr. Pedro Rodriguez shares his personal story, incorporating life lessons, and igniting reflection questions and action steps to transform our minds for success. It provokes us to think about the life we live, ways to enhance it, and poses strategies to facilitate continued progress in the right direction.
