Overcome, Succeed & Prosper: The 5 Attitudes for Success to Enable Individuals or Families to Lead Successful Lives (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780967878317)

Lenell Geter's practical and commonsensical book Overcome, Succeed, and Prosper is a true "profile in courage" and determination in the face of almost insurmountable hardships. In 1982, he had just begun a career as an engineer in Greenville, Texas, when during his short stay he was mistakenly charged, convicted, and sentenced to life imprisonment for a crime he did not commit. He spent sixteen months in prison before his name was cleared of wrongdoing. CBS's "60 Minutes" did a key segment on his plight in 1984, and in February of CBS Television aired "Guilty of Innocence: The Lenell Geter Story," a major motion picture for television. In his beautifully written account, there is an underlying message, which inspires, informs and encourages families and individuals to overcome their obstacles and to make personal changes in their lives by employing his system of "Five Attitudes for Success" and "Character Benchmark Lessons." This informative account of a real-life situation speaks volumes about the inner strength and the indomitable human spirit. His is the story of a man who endures anguish and horror and lived to emerge a man of undying heroism and hope - a man who peered into the deepest regions of man's inhumanity to man and of his own soul and survived. The message springs from his experiences and universal truths describing the attitudes necessary to overcome that Lenell Geter, a courageous young engineer, actually experienced and now practices. These attitudes for success helped him to recover from a horrific ordeal and are now enabling him to assist others to achieve their dreams despite adversity. Families will be inspired and encouraged by employing his structured system to learn helpful lessons about adversity, character, values and success.In his moving narrative of overcoming adversity, Geter makes the negative disappear with his positive advice to generations of young people who will benefit from his beautiful and enlightened advice. He believes that human beings must respect God and themselves to be able to focus on family, and personal development. This message is a structured plan, which can be tailored to any individual's dreams and goals. Who will benefit from his beautiful and enlightened advice? Throughout the book, he admonishes young people, and he says to all readers to be ready for any obstacle in life. His horror story unfolds so dramatically positive until it serves to motivate and to educate young readers as well as more mature readers. In other words, Geter will make the negative disappear with his faith in God, his five attitudes for success and his Character Benchmark Lessons to generations of young people and families. He is a proud American who is eminently qualified to write such a book, because he is a living example of one who dared to say no to all obstacles and hopelessness.
