"THE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS WORKBOOK CURRICULUM”
How many mistakes and successes have you experienced in life? Have past mistakes ever hindered your progress? Are you interested in discovering your purpose and gaining a greater appreciation for life? If so, we invite you to continue reading.
We all make mistakes throughout our lives—some big and some small. However, the focus should not be on the number or severity of those mistakes. True growth begins when we shift our perspective and learn how to move forward without allowing our past to define our future.
After spending more than 22 years in prisons, jails, and rehabilitation facilities while struggling with addiction, I discovered a transformative process that allowed me to rebuild my life and stand in a completely different place today. Along the way, I gained valuable life lessons, developed a faith I never thought possible, and built inner strength and confidence that continue to guide my recovery and personal growth.
The Minor Adjustments Workbook presents practical tools and strategies that have helped me—and many others—create meaningful and lasting change. This curriculum is designed to help individuals reflect, grow, and apply simple principles that lead to healthier thinking, stronger decision-making, and a renewed sense of purpose.
