WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BOOK:
"Part
intellectual memoir, part self-help book. Michael W. Dean's Practical
Emotional Self-Defense (PESD) techniques flow from a wealth of life experiences,
both positive and negative. 'The Only Two Rules in Life' have some radical,
refreshing implications."
--Jason
Sorens, Ph.D. (Assistant Professor, University at Buffalo, SUNY), founder
of the Free State Project
"You owe
yourself the opportunity to step outside your comfort zone and put yourself
in the court with this modern-day Socrates."
--Pastor
Kenneth V. Blanchard, Sr., author of Black Man with a Gun
“I knew
Michael Dean back in the day, when he was a 19-year-old punk rocker with
an appetite for self-destruction. I honestly didn’t think he’d
live to be 30. But guess what? It turns out that Michael isn’t just
a survivor; he’s a survivor who’s learned how to enjoy life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness after recovery. For everyone who
wants to know how to stay sane, develop a great work ethic, and make a
mark on the world, Michael Dean has a great story to tell."
