Non-Fiction - Motivational
Reviewed by Pikasho Deka for Readers' Favorite
Plantation Theory by John Graham sheds light on the plight of Black people working in various companies of corporate America who never get a fair chance to climb the ladder. Systemic racism is embedded into the very fabric of basically every major American institution. That also includes corporate America. Author John Graham draws from his own personal experiences and uses anecdotes of some fellow Black professionals to showcase how the work done by African Americans in companies is often overlooked or bypassed in favor of someone with a lighter skin tone. To put things in perspective, there are only four Black CEOs currently leading a Fortune 500 company. And not a single of one them is a woman. Graham cites multiple examples where qualified Black professionals aren't given the opportunity to succeed.
Plantation Theory is a must-read for anyone interested in the inner workings of companies that represent corporate America. The work culture and environment cultivated within the framework of the industry systematically prohibits the growth of Black professionals and becomes a major barrier in the linear rise of their career trajectories. John Graham minces no words in his sharp and accurate criticism of the institutions that protect the status quo and make it nigh impossible for oppressed minorities to bridge the gap between the socio-economic divide. In one of the examples, Graham relates how Black people in certain situations are sometimes forced to change the way they talk to mingle with their White colleagues. This is one of the best books I've read this year. Highly recommended.

Heart-Dreamer: Stepping into Life, Love, Creativity and Dreams - No Matter What by Cheryl Melody Baskin is a wonderfully inspiring and motivating way to think with your heart instead of your head, which will automatically have you pursuing your dreams or returning to the lost dreams you've left behind. We're born creative creatures, but sometimes life, goals, work, and other obligations get in the way of building our dreams. Baskin shows us how to return to our first loves - our dreams - to achieve happiness and success. Yes, we all face challenges, and it seems that fulfilling our dreams might be a fruitless venture. But with determination and a plan (and this book, of course) you can head in a positive direction toward healing and personal satisfaction.
Baskin has crafted the perfect guide for those who have lost a dream, and I like her idea that those who think they have no dream can find one if they allow themselves to look inside and are open to it. The author writes with a concise, personal style that is highly enjoyable and relatable. The life advice within these pages can help you attain self-awareness, better health, self-forgiveness, and a solid foundation for moving forward. You'll find inspirational quotes like "A life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit," and other thought-provoking prompts to get you thinking about your own needs, goals, and dreams. I especially like the author's concept of finding your inner child or going back to the joys and dreams you had as a child and using them in your dream journey. The cultural references are entertaining and inspiring as well. This book would be great for anyone in a slump or anyone just starting out in life and wondering how to choose the right path. If that is you, pick up Heart-Dreamer: Stepping into Life, Love, Creativity and Dreams - No Matter What by Cheryl Melody Baskin.

A Gay Man's Guide To Life: Get Real, Stand Tall, and Take Your Place by Britt East is written for gay men and represents life seen through the lens of a gay man. The author's story is a good tool for gay readers not to repeat the mistakes he made because of their sexual and cultural orientation. The memoir will help gay men own their truths, acknowledge their harms, atone, amend, and then move on so that they are empowered. The author's words are a good way for the community to get to know gay men and understand them better. The book is a good manual that will help gay men implement the practices they require to live their most authentic life so that they can start thriving.
A Gay Man's Guide To Life is straightforward and honest. Britt East speaks of his childhood being lonely. His conflicting emotions, being too tender-hearted, and his masculine and feminine traits that confounded many people he met and how they affected him have been discussed in detail. The importance of self-love is stressed, and he also stresses the importance of having a good relationship with the body. The author's approach to the topic will give confidence to gay men to thrive as gay men, and come to terms with their homosexuality, manhood, and gender identity. The author's personal experiences that shaped him to be who he is today will help readers understand him and his words better - which are insightful, uplifting, and motivating.

Conquering Life's Course: Common Sense in Chaotic Times by Richard V. Battle is a book of practical wisdom to face the doldrums of everyday life and find more meaning and fulfillment navigating the challenges that life throws at the reader. The author defines the reader right from the start and spells out the purpose of the book in simple and clear terms: It’s not a book for the academic, but for the ordinary person and is aimed at providing them with tools that will help them create a better life for themselves and their children. In this book, readers receive lessons the author learned from his parents and lessons he’s passed on to his daughter. It also features stories and essays containing what the author calls “lessons that I learned from my positive and knothead experiences, and the complementary education that I received from observing the lives of others.”
The book is filled with insights and some of the topics are really spot-on and required reading for contemporary readers. I enjoyed how the writing and the message of this book invited me to think about my actions, to become aware of what happens around and within me, and to use the power of observation to steer my actions towards positive outcomes. In this book, readers will understand how hurtful peer pressure can be and how it has gradually become part of our human nature, to the point that very few people understand they aren’t acting out of their own free will. The stories are inspiring, and Richard V. Battle uses humor to augment the delight the reader finds in these pages. The writing is fluid and confident and the popular tone of voice invites readers to indulge in frank conversations with themselves and to be more critical about their choices in life. Conquering Life's Course: Common Sense in Chaotic Times is a gift that will change the way we face life every day and give us the wisdom to navigate life freely, reach deeper levels of success, and experience less stress. It is a must-read for anyone looking for tools to improve their life.

In every aspect of our lives, we all should have a mentor. You probably had a mentor and didn't know it. A mentor is someone that you confide in and trust from your personal development and business to spirituality. The mentor helps you to navigate onto a better path for the future. In this self-help book, The Mentor In Me: What To Do & What Not To Do by William Todd, the reader will learn about the author as he discovers a lot about himself. Through his own journey, while being mentored by author Bob Proctor (Thoughts Are Things, It's Not About the Money and many other works), he explains how the Seven Levels of Awareness principles changed his life and can change yours too. This book provides the tools necessary for creating and developing a mental paradigm shift in your behavior and thinking. This book offers readers the mentor approach of the deep dive from dos and don'ts to words of wisdom as they embark on their journey without being bogged down with fluff. The reader will learn a wealth of useful information as the author gives real-life examples and quotes.
I enjoyed The Mentor In Me because sometimes I can get buried under things in life that either don't suit, serve, or lead to anything productive. Reading this book has helped to unclog the wheels that are churning in my mind; as a mentor would. Just like William Todd states; with a mentor you may not always listen or agree but the goal is to acquire optimum results with each step that you take. If you're not getting the results that you desire, remember it's insane to keep on doing the same thing. In order to improve your life, you have to work at it. I love this statement by Bob Proctor that sums it up: "The Mentor in Me is not a book that you pick up and read. It’s a book you form a relationship with and you study daily for the rest of your life." Change takes practice so if you're looking for life improvements, add this book to your library. Enjoy!
