Working Class Dad is the type of book I wish I had when I first became a father twenty years ago. It is truly a manual for fatherhood. There is a mindset presented that allows a father to give his child the freedom to not be held back by a standard of thinking their main objective is to create pride in the heart of his or her father. I've spoken with countless broken people who only ever wanted to make their father proud. My aim is to show fathers that this is the wrong target to place in the sights of a child. The true measure of a father isn't how a situation defines him, but in how he defines the situation. I present a perspective that can apply for any father, whether in service to our military, whether going through divorce, whether lost or found, whether just starting out, or whether closing down shop. I truly kept all situations in perspective as I penned from my heart. Book excerpt -- Last year over the summer I found myself emerged in business travel and it brought me near some unbelievable destinations. I have a personal rule to not just stay in the room on travel, but I believe you should always go explore if you have the time. So, over that spectacular month I experienced the sunrise over the prolific mountain range of the Swiss Alps while I was cruising on the Autobahn, the sun setting in the living panoramic painting of the Yosemite Valley, looked up from underneath the Giant Sequoias in the Valley of the Giants, I walked the streets of Strasbourg in all of its full spring beauty and vibrant colors, and felt the mist and power from the millions of gallons of water churning over the edge of Niagara Falls. While taking in all these marvelous sights and experiences, I thought to myself these must be moments of sheer inspiration. But were they? Yes, I left in complete awe and felt something I couldn't quite put in the adequacy of words. But I didn't invent anything that impacts the experience of humanity or discover any new cures for detrimental health conditions common to humanity upon my return. Maybe that only happens in movies. Finding the true definition amongst scholars and psychologists of inspiration is a little more complicated that it first appears on the surface. There are many good studies done on the topic, but it seems safe to say from the life experience of most of us, inspiration comes from an experience, a thing, or a person. Inspiration at the heart involves an action that propelled us to an action. And fundamentally in reference to what we consider marginally great. It is not hard to find in most organizations today, people teaching about leadership and trying to call out the "greatness" in their employees, students, or religious organizations. With the intrinsic questions revolving around better performance, labeled in "greatness". The way I am defining greatness is to bring out the best in an individual for the greater cause of the group or organization. Solidarity and understanding of greatness are defined by the individual and only sought once there has been a realization of value and gain that....The book defines a pragmatic approach with passion and balance to be the father you never knew you could be, no matter your situation. You'll find insights not only from my own personally relatable experiences but also perspectives from culturally relevant topics and recognizable individuals that create new and genuine consideration for the responsibilities we have as working fathers. All of the hard-earned content proposed serves to build a structure and mindset for the implementation of my greatest secret for success as a father; which is revealed in the final chapters of the book. I have discovered and implemented a way to connect with your children to produce the long-lasting relationships that create unbreakable bonds. One secret that is so treasured, I specially requested permission from my five children to share. And with their obvious approval, I present Working Class Dad.
