BORN IN PURPOSE: From Pain To Purpose From Survival To Impact

We live in a culture obsessed with the "arrival" but terrified of the process. We applaud the champion on the podium, but we rarely look at the blisters on their feet or the silent battles fought in the dark when no one was watching.In Born in Purpose: From Pain to Purpose, From Survival to Impact, author Gregg Matthews delivers a raw, intentional interruption to the manicured, curated versions of success we see daily. This book is an unvarnished look at what it actually takes to step up to your personal free-throw line when the room is loud, the pressure is heavy, and the most dangerous critic is the one whispering inside your own head.Part gripping memoir and part tactical blueprint, Gregg takes you on a chronological journey of his own formation—from the Salvation Army Fulton Boys and Girls Club courts in Atlanta and the back seat rides of a MARTA bus at five years old, to the silent, uncomfortable spaces of adolescence and high-stakes leadership.Inside this book, Gregg Matthews shows you how to:Defy the Gravity of Your Environment: Discover how Gregg’s inner-city single mother stood as an unyielding force against the streets, proving you are not a product of your zip code.Expose and Break Free from Silent Traps: Gain a rare, honest look at how early exposure to a hyper-sexualized world creates hidden barriers for young men—and how to overcome them.Extract Wisdom from Flawed Heroes: Learn how to look at the imperfect figures in your past and use their life lessons to teach you exactly who you need to become.Confront False Humility: Stop shrinking just to make everyone else comfortable, name your internal filters, and step into your authentic authority.Your pain and your past may have influenced where you started, but they do not get to dictate your final chapter. If you are ready to shift from mere survival to true, lasting impact, Gregg’s journey will give you the framework to step into the individual your destiny is looking for.Welcome to the journey of becoming. It’s time to shoot your shot. Read more
