"Ron James is a man who knows what he is talking about. Choices will humble you, inspire you, and make a positive difference in your life " Tracey C. Jones, best-selling author and President of Tremendous Life BooksRonald James knows about choices, both good and bad. Unfortunately, he also knows all too well about the personal cost and tragic results that bad choices bring. After spending more than twenty-five years of his life incarcerated in a nine-by-nine cell with nothing but an uncomfortable bed, a steel toilet and sink, and a roommate, James learned one important lesson: choices determine destiny. With a determination to help others make better choices, James chronicles his emotional, heartfelt, amusing, and thought-provoking journey through his personal battles, decisions, and the consequences that led him to pay the ultimate price with his life and time. As he details his experiences from an early age, James provides insight into how he developed a survival mode of thinking that evolved into a powerful tool of manipulation. He began to believe in his own lies and became deceitful in order to remove himself from tight situations. While reflecting on his own path through life and the chain of events that eventually led to his downward spiral, James encourages and empowers others to learn from his mistakes, consider their choices, and trust in God to experience a life greater than ever imagined.Choices is a compelling, inspirational autobiography that shares life-changing wisdom for anyone who wants to begin making better choices today.
"If you want to change the future, you must change what you are doing in the present." -Mark Twain A man once defined by his mistakes now lives with intention to serve and uplift others. In this compelling account, Ron L. James unwraps his past-marked by bad choices and eventual incarceration-before revealing the turning point that ignited his craving for freedom beyond the prison walls. His transparent story allows others to see possibilities even in the face of adversity.In Awaken to Your Dreams, Ron emphasizes that true knowledge is not merely acquired but implemented-a step that, when missed, often prevents people from moving forward. He provides a roadmap to guide readers through each step of the process of change, beginning with helping them discover who they are, unlocking hidden potential and embracing the transformative power of choice."Ron James's beautifully written and inspiring testimony demonstrates how we, ourselves, hold the power to change our lives. ... This guidance for 'empowerment to change and grow' is both practical and doable. Choose to read this book "-Patrice Jeppson, PhD, Researcher, Anthropological
