Immigrant Steps to American Dream

Sid Vaidya’s Immigrant Steps to American Dream features his “Diamonds of Diversity” plan for success. Using Baseball as a metaphor, Sid shows you how to succeed one base at a time! You’re up! "From the time I arrived in the USA at the age of 19 as a poor, hungry and driven immigrant in December 1966, it took me years to achieve sustained success. For me, that meant having multiple homes, multiple cars and boats, lasting marriage to an American born white woman, highly educated successful children, a great career, great friends, money in the bank and travels around the world. For you, success might mean something altogether different. It is a personal journey. While I acknowledge that success does not mean happiness, I do believe happiness without success is elusive. Success is residue of diligence. I do not want to forget what I did right to get it. Therefore, I have documented my own secret of success. You cannot achieve something if you do not know what it is. You have to decide what you want. Having a vision will give you something to focus on. Begin where you are, with what you have. A current survey shows that 80% of the population, i.e. “Four out of five US adults” struggle with joblessness, near poverty or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives. It points to an increasing globalized US economy, the widening gap between ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’ and a loss of good paying manufacturing jobs as reasons for the trend.” While racial and ethnic minorities are more likely to live in poverty, hardship and pessimism are on the rise among ‘working whites’. This book will show you that sustained success is ensued by a lifetime of commitment to doing the right things. Consider all of this as a buffet of information. Take what you like and try a few more times what you did not you might just like it. A wise man once told me, “When the student is ready, the teacher arrives.” I believe you are ready!"
