    ABOUT THE AUDIENCE

    Whether you are a high-school student, trying to finish school, a graduate trying to figure out yourfuture, a struggling college student who is ready to quit school, a young adult who is ready to dive into

    a career for which you have developed the skills to master, a stay-at-home mom with too much to doto even think about what youre passionate about, someone who has fallen on hard times and cantseem to get back on track, or someone who has become victim of a series of poor decisions, we allhope that someway, somehow, someday we will succeed.

    This book aims to encourage, to inspire and to provide perspective for those who are thinking aboutwhat it takes to succeed.

    The question is how do we move from where ever we find ourselves in life to that moment when wefeel successful? An even more important question is what is true success, anyway?

    In Unstoppable Success, Antipas creatively weaves his own life experiences with philosophy

    theology, and practical biblical teachings both to prove the heart of true success and to show how toachieve it.

    In this book, you will discover seven essential values for success:

    - #1. Faith- #2. Vision,- #3. Persistence,- #4. Humility,- #5. Education,

    - #6. Making the right connections- #7. Integrity.

    You will realize that when one follows these basic principles, true success is possible for everyone.

    Most of the success books out there emphasize skill development to prepare one for economicmodels of success. Unstoppable Success, however, bridges the necessity of training with anemphasis on strong character and sound principles for a more complete model of success.

    In Unstoppable Success, professor, minister, community leader, and music producer, Dr. AntipasHarris, shares the seven Christ-centered and Bible-based virtues above. These virtues will producelong-lasting and unstoppable success in every aspect of your life.

    Do you want to become unstoppable? Read and apply the principles in this book!
