This book shows you how someone overcame those misfortunes and then goes a step, well 11 steps to be exact, further to help you do the same. Finding Your Bootstraps tells you the story of how someone found theirs and how you can find the courage, conviction and assertiveness to grab your own bootstraps and pull yourself up to the life you so richly deserve.
