     It seems rather obvious that if you change nothing, nothing changes. So this book is the antidote to an average result and life. This book is the staircase anyone can climb when they’ve decided they want to escape their prison of mediocrity. It’s also the book that will push you through the glass ceiling that is keeping you inside your comfort zone. WHY NOT LIVE A REMARKABLE AND FULFILLED LIFE? After working with several thousands of clients, I am now able to clearly identify the patterns that ignite SuperHero Productivity in people, as well as those that block any chance of great results in the least amount of time. As a consequence of my years in the Productivity trenches, I structured the book to follow these principles: 1. Bite sized information for a daily intake that is not overwhelming but easy to digest and implement right-away. 
 2. A 30-day approach that gives you enough time to implement and test ideas and see the changes happening in your own life.  
 3. World Class strategies, tools and exercises that are science based, time proven and client tested, so you don’t have to sort out what’s working from what’s not. 
 4. The optimum mix of structure, discipline and motivation over the course of 4+ weeks:
 a) Monday to Friday strategies and tools for greater productivity 
 b) Saturday a recap of the main ideas and an evaluation form to help you get a clear picture of the progress you have made over the last 7 days
 c) Sunday an inspirational story that is not giving you extra-work, but it’s lifting your mood and keeps you connected to the journey.  
 Very Important! My best advice to you is to sync as soon as possible with the rhythm of the book. For instance, read and implement Day 1 on a Monday, Day 6 on a Saturday, Day 7 on a Sunday and so on. Read one lesson every day and do the recommended work so you build your SuperHero Structure, while being highly motivated and disciplined. Let’s begin!

    Born in 1930, the mixed-race son of a hard-drinking black prostitute and a white cotton broker, Sample was raised in the Jim Crow South by an abusive mother who refused to let her son—who could pass for white—call her Mama. He watched for the police while she worked, whether as a prostitute, bootlegger, or running the best dice game in town. He loved his mother deeply but could no longer take her abuse and ran away from home at the age of twelve. In his early twenties, Sample was arrested for burglary, robbery, and robbery by assault and was sentenced to nearly twenty years in the Texas prison system in the 1950s and 60s. His light complexion made him stand out in the all-black prison plantation known as the “burnin’ hell,” where he and over four hundred prisoners picked cotton and worked the land while white shotgun-carrying guards followed on horseback. Sample earned the moniker “Racehoss” for his ability to hoe cotton faster than anyone else in his squad. A profound spiritual awakening in solitary confinement was a decisive moment for him, and he became determined to turn his life around. When he was finally released in 1972, he did just that. Though Sample was incarcerated in the twentieth century, his memoir reads like it came from the nineteenth. With new stories that had been edited out of the first edition, a foreword by Texas attorney and writer David R. Dow, and an afterword by Sample’s widow, Carol, this new edition of Racehoss: Big Emma’s Boy offers a more complete picture of this extraordinary time in America’s recent past.
