This book is a true rags-to-riches story about Burton Hughes, who was constantly told as he grew up in the challenging circumstances of poverty -- whenever he wanted to better his condition -- "That's not for you." Burton tells how he learned to use that negativity from others as a springboard to aspire to and achieve great things, financially and personally.
He relates how negative comments about his physique as a young man inspired him to pursue body building, resulting in his capturing the title of Mr. Ohio in body building competitions. It also led to his becoming an IFBB Pro in Men's Physique and being featured in and on magazine covers, as well as modeling/acting over the years.
Burton fascinates us with his experiences being a counselor to wayward, poverty-stricken young men in a government outreach program. And he intrigues us with his 18 plus years of successful sales and leadership/business management experiences in real estate sales and general contracting.
In addition to his competitive spirit and exacting self-discipline, much of Burton's ongoing business success is due to discovering and developing his Six Assets of Alignment -- Mindset, Faith, Family, Fitness, Finances, Network. Through his business experiences and his insights on the Six Assets of Alignment, Burton Hughes provides his readers with the jet fuel for making a roaring success of both their personal and business lives.

Burton P. Hughes grew up in poverty and often sought to escape it, but he was always told: "That's not for you." As a child, after witnessing the near murder of his mother and also losing his revered older brother, Burton almost gave up. But his inner mettle and strength, hope and deep belief, helped him decide what was attainable for him.
Due to his never-say-die work ethic, fierce intellect, and literal model good looks, he succeeded and got out of the slums. Then one tragic day he almost lost it all with a near-death experience, but he learned how much he had to live for: that people were out there waiting for him to lift them up.
With his discovery of the Six Assets of Alignment, Burton began instructing his clients in the art of aligning their assets of Mindset, Faith, Family, Fitness, Finances, and Network, helping many succeed, just as he had done.
By fully implementing the Six Assets into his own life, Burton empowered himself to establish various businesses, to model for multiple media outlets, and to coach clients in reaching their life goals. He lives by the Six Assets every day and encourages people to follow his lead.
