Life Lessons I Learned from Tyler Perry

“It’s not an easy journey to get to a place where you forgive people. But it is such a powerful place, because it frees you.” – – Tyler Perry

Tyler Perry is a prime example you don’t have to be a product of your environment.  He did not let his past rob him of his future. Although he had a difficult childhood, he was able to transform his pain into his passion.  He found his breakthrough in his passion for writing that eventually propelled him to a successful career in the entertainment industry.  It is not so much about his success but about his discipline and his tenacity to push beyond a world of limitations that plagued his childhood.
