Mittra provides a memoir that describes how he applied four principles to reach seemingly unachievable goals in his life: persevere with passion; pursue professional, family-oriented, social,
and spiritual goals; persuade family and friends to help; and promote a culture of giving back. Mittra was a low-achieving student, a bank clerk, a research assistant who messed up an
application for a Fulbright Scholarship, a foreign graduate student in the US who was thrown in jail by a cop in Georgia for accepting a ride offered by a white woman, and finally, a professor,
finance expert, and philanthropist. He demonstrates how he used these principles each time he encountered an obstacle. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
