Beating the Odds and Winning Part I: A Guide for Peer Pressure

By Jai Corrine Simons MHS MBA MPA

The power of peer pressure is oftentimes greatly underestimated and grossly minimized. Peer pressure and bullying sometimes go hand in hand. There are adults and children who lack the skills to combat such a powerful force. The goal and mission of this book is to empower those individuals with the skills for handling negative peer pressure and successfully negotiating the negative social environments that they encounter, along with making them a positive force for positive peer pressure, whether in school, on the playground, at work, and any other place. This book provides proven and simple techniques and strategies that they can use to help them come out on top and help make them successful in life.
