Goodbye delusional thinking. This means taking those ideas to come out for that one big score or package and throwing them in the garbage where they belong. There are no big packages, or scores left for you. Until you understand this, you are already defeated, and on your way back for another bid. What will it be this time? One year, four to twelve, six to eighteen, life? After all the time spent incarcerated and seeing so many individuals return to prison or being killed, your goal is still to go back to the neighborhood and do it again. So here is how that works....... The above paragraph is a taken from one of the steps. My book the "5 Steps to a Successful Re-Entry" is a solution focused, easy to read, direct, honest and personal approach to addressing the problem of recidivism. Although intended for the incarcerated and formerly incarcerated. It is also for the family and communities these men and women will be returning to. I strongly believe that recidivism can be greatly reduced and ultimately defeated by utilizing the steps provided within this book.
