Get off the sidelines. I have learned that making regular deposits into a pity box will not change your life. Waiting for some existential force to fix your life, without you doing anything, is not realistic. You picked up this book because you are seeking more life satisfaction. You know that you want more than the day-to-day grind. You know there is no benefit in living in the shadow of past failure. You understand that the only person that can get your life moving is you. Live Your Privilege is your how-to-guide to stepping into the greatness of YOUR life.
Author Andrea Michelle Green hit the floor running from the very beginning of Live Your Privilege: she addressed self, something a lot of us will not do when assessing ourselves and finding our way in God and in life. Green says, “Breaking through to privilege requires self-awareness, acknowledgment, restraint and closure.”
