 Part
inspiring memoir, part practical manual for building a fulfilling life, Six Lessons for Six Sons shares the important virtues that self-made man
and entrepreneur Joe Massengale taught his sons.
As
a kid in Marshall, Texas, Joe Massengale told the classmates who laughed
at his poverty that he was going to Los Angeles to get rich and one day
he’d come back in triumph—and he did. But more important than the material
wealth that Joe gained are the lessons he learned and in turn taught his
six sons.
Six
Lessons for Six Sons distills the stories of Joe’s life and those of his
sons into teachings that are simple and personal, yet universal. These
true stories illustrate the principles that helped an African-American
family thrive. The virtues—confidence, fortitude, persistence, pride,
fearlessness, and focus—are a powerful formula for success that can be
embraced by anyone, starting now.
"[An] awe-inspiring story of fatherly love and dedication…distills the stories of Massengale’s life and those of his sons into teachings that are a powerful formula for success." —Ebony
