369 pieces of advice from Dad, - I never had!

Growing up in the chaos of New York City, I had to learn a lot of lessons the hard way. Without a father figure to guide me, I was a boy running through a maze without a map—taking wrong turns, hitting dead ends, mixing with the wrong people and occasionally getting lost along the way.  It wasn’t pretty, but it was real and it was hard. I made mistakes, plenty of them, and it turns out mistakes are some of life’s best teachers.

Now, after years of trial and error (emphasis on the error), I’ve compiled “369 pieces of advice from Dad, – I never had!” a series of  advice that I wish someone had shared with me when I was younger. It would have saved me a lot of trouble and pain.

This isn’t just a list of motivational quotes or empty platitudes. These are real, hard-earned lessons. The kind of advice that comes from messing up and learning how to bounce back stronger. This collection covers everything from finances and career choices to personal development and dealing with everyday challenges.
