I began work on this almost 3 years ago, and finally felt it was at a point it could be useful for those who read it.
The most difficult part of the book was not the writing, or the editing, but the mirror aspect writing it has had. I had to see my true reflection.
As I determined to be as truthful as possible, I had to face so many poor decisions I have made in my past. Everyone, to some degree, likes to have an image of himself/herself more complimentary than reality.
After this process, all I am left with is humility and a very real assessment of how "not great" I have been in the past.
Here's to truth!
