Ten Steps to Prepare for Success from Jail or Prison Michael Santos

A journey through jail or prison can open opportunities to recalibrate and rebuild. With our 10-step program, you'll learn the strategies that our team used to cross through multiple decades in prison. Those strategies led to success through jail, prison, and upon release. Success begins when we define it. Then, we set clear goals that will take us from where we are to where we want to go. Our Straight-A Guide program begins with those two pre-requisite lessons. They follow with our Straight-A Guide, as follows: -Attitude: To succeed, begin with the right attitude--as measured by your values and goals.-Aspiration: Train yourself to see the success you're determined to become.-Action: Take incremental action steps that lead to success.-Accountability: Design metrics to hold yourself accountable.-Awareness: Keep your head in the game, staying aware of opportunities all around you.-Authenticity: Be true to the values and goals you've identified.-Achievement: Celebrate every achievement along the way.-Appreciation: Show your gratitude by sowing seeds for goodness. We prepared this course for people going into jails or prisons. Through this course, we will show how decisions at the earliest stages of the journey influence opportunities that can open while in jail, prison, on supervised release, and when it's time to resume a career. Learn these ten steps and you'll start building a pathway to success. My name is Michael Santos, and I began serving a 45-year prison term in 1987, when I was 23 years old. By learning from leaders like Socrates, Nelson Mandela, Malcolm X, Viktor Frankl, and other people who endured struggle, I learned strategies to grow and prosper. I'm confident that anyone can recalibrate and grow by adhering to this ten-step program. For the accompanying videos to this course, visit PrisonProfessors.com.
