EXECUTE.In Smoke and Mirrors, he shares the story of his personal experience - the backdrop from gang life, to latchkey kid, to becoming a millionaire by age 25, losing it all during the economic downturn and having the perseverance to regain it and grow. The intention of sharing his story, experiences and wisdom is to enable others to view life on a grand landscape of opportunity and possibility. Mauricio conveys the essence of who he is, what he has overcome, what he pays forward as a philanthropist and his direct and intense nature of challenging his network to be all that contributes to community, culture and business. This knowledge offers a unique recipe for differentiating in a world that is complicated and cluttered.It takes experience to understand how to navigate business, systems, families, entities of any kind. Wisdom is conveyed when someone chooses to convey it and has not only the auspices to do so through their platform and relationships, but the willingness to portray a real and vulnerable view of tenets, practices and techniques to succeed are what this book imparts. No apologies. Full disclosure. No illusions. Truth and reality. Thus, is the nature of Smoke and Mirrors. Read...and you will get beyond your facade and into the facts of how you decide to show up in your life. www.mauricioamejia.com
