Tyrese candidly shares his life experiences and advice how he has discovered a new way of compassion and I’ve watched Tyrese for many years, I’ve watched him succeed; I’ve watched him fail; I’ve seen him as a beneficiary of serendipity, and I’ve watched him suffer at his own hand. I’ve witnessed Tyrese learn how to get out of his own way as he wrestled his destiny from the fickle hands offate.” – says friend Will Smith
I highly recommend this book to everyone. I was captured in Tyrese’s story of his childhood and how he was determined to make it out of the “hood.” He was very open about his past and shared experiences and advice on mistakes he previously made throughout his career. Most people perceive celebrities by what they only see on the red carpet and in the news, but they don’t know half of the struggles they were faced before reaching celebrity status.
“How to get out of your own way” is a great example for teens and adults it only goes to show you that fame is not an overnight success nor is any business. The book is beautifully written, honest and worth reading. This book is definitely a reality check on where you are and where you want to be.
