Description
Everyone faces adversity, be it in one's career, finances, or even personal life. Recognizing the tools needed to press through that adversity is the key to a successful life full of accomplishment. Tommy Cook knows this kind of perseverance. From his humble beginnings as a high school dropout, Tommy comes to realize that he is going to have to fight to make it in this world. What he doesn't realize is that he is his own worst enemy. Will Tommy escape the burden of working paycheck to paycheck? Will his immature decisions result in him being kicked out of the military? How will he survive his irresponsible and precarious actions while in Vietnam? When giving up seems like the easy way out, Tommy continues to press on despite the consequences. Go for it on Fourth and Long with new author Tommy Cook as he bears his shortcomings in an attempt to cleanse his heart and soul and make restitution for his failure to be the person that he could and should have been. Draw encouragement from Tommy's story to persevere through your own struggles.
