The public figure we all know at least something about...but the private man, the family man, the father, and son has been hidden to us by the passing of time. This is a true audio treasure. What Grant had to say, so long ago, is oddly relevant, touching, and even inspirational now as it was then, so many generations ago.

The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant is an autobiography from the 18th president of the United States and was published by Mark Twain shortly after Grant's death in 1885. His memoirs were written in an attempt to take care of his family after his passing, which he did very well.

In the 19th century, one of the surest ways to rise to prominence in American society was to be a war hero, like Andrew Jackson and William Henry Harrison. But few would have predicted such a destiny for Hiram Ulysses Grant, who had been a career soldier with little experience in combat and a failed businessman when the Civil War broke out in 1861.

Ulysses S. Grant remains one of the giants in American history, revered and respected by his contemporaries, but viewed ever after as one of the country's most controversial figures. He graduated from West Point in 1843 and went on to have a successful military career before becoming the 18th president of the United States for two terms. These grand accomplishments stand in stark contrast with his failures.

He graduated from West Point in 1843 and went on to have a successful military career before becoming the 18th President of the United States for two terms.

The title of the book is my way of filtering the winners from the distracted. Failure is the real F word that gets ignored as profanity. Saying the word without a genuine way to overcome it should be offensive, right along with FEAR. Listening to the following 12 chapters is one more chance for you to capture and gain the necessary traction you need to build momentum. In an ever-changing and unforgiving platform of enslaved worker bees. Drones self-piloted by the illusions of economic self-satisfaction controlled by hourly wages.

Everything God created was devised with purpose. Guess what - that includes you! God knew the day you would be born, the opposition you would face, and the victories you would experience. Don't allow where you are to define who you are. Press forward in purpose knowing that God envisioned greatness for you. This succinct but powerful audiobook offers insight that allows the listener to realize that you have purpose, strategies to discovering your purpose, and empowerment to fulfill it. It requires that you be honest with yourself and open to God's direction.

I intend for this audiobook to serve as a handbook for tracking and documenting your progress. The end of this audiobook will become the beginning of your progression to success. You will find parts of this audiobook to have somewhat of a vulgar swag to it because success and failure can be dirty, nasty, freaky things. They can be deceiving, trifling, manipulating, hence the crude tone. But the journey you will encounter in this audiobook will open your mind to understanding what success is truly made of and what it will take to win.
