The author shares his personal life experiences starting with his early years growing up in the poorest streets of Bogotá. Dreaming big, he shares the efforts that were needed to convert those dreams into a reality, encouraging readers to dream big themselves, set goals, and believe that what seems impossible can be made a reality. The author narrates in detail the many life challenges that he went through; hurdles, failures and accomplishments, to meet his planned objectives. And he conveys with his heart that when all is said and done, it is a great feeling to look back at your humble beginnings, and appreciate with satisfaction that through hard work, resilience, discipline, enthusiasm, and positive attitude, your dreams were made a reality. Like many other mothers in the neighborhood, the author's mother believed that her son's best chance for a successful future was as a tradesman: a mason, a plumber, a carpenter, or a silversmith. At a tender age, he experienced child labor exploitation firsthand, the author soon set his sights to the north and thus began his life long journey of self-betterment through higher education and traveling the world.
