In his first book, Dr. Samose L. Mays talks about how he lost his way on the journey through life but was able to get back on his feet and become an inspirational leader. This wasn’t his first time enrolling in school, as he had dropped out twice from Georgia Southern. In his early 30’s, he was determined to complete his doctorate degree but was unable to make ends meet he subsequently became homeless. He worked part-time jobs as a personal trainer and at a local recreation center to help pay for gas and food. He would wake up in his car, train clients at the gym in the morning, head to work at the rec center, and then go back to the gym to train afternoon clients. Then he would take a shower at the gym, hang out until they closed, and go back to sleep in his car. Dr. Mays completed his doctoral assignments whenever and wherever he had the chance. He utilized computers at the rec center or library and scheduled his time around the open hours. While he struggled to make ends meet, he excelled as a student. It never crossed his mind to give up again.
