"Chris Pavlak has written a powerful, honest testament to grit and resilience, the importance of rites of passage, and the power of being part of something bigger than ourselves. Bravo." - Nathaniel Fick, New York Times bestselling author of One Bullet Away "A masterpiece of emotions and actions through failure. In this very raw tome, Chris Pavlak guides the reader through his journey of failing the bar examination. Out of this failure, he needed to attack in a new direction, which led to a life of service in the United States Marine Corps, where he has flourished. He is living proof that there truly are second acts in America. He is the embodiment of forging forward through fire-an example we can all learn from and appreciate." - Major General Michael Fahey, USMC (Ret.) "Where failure is considered taboo and something we hide, Chris Pavlak has written an authentic and compelling story of resilience in the face of it, and how he found meaning in a life of service in the Marine Corps. Anyone who has failed at something significant-which is all of us-can learn from Chris's story." - Tom Schueman, USMC, author of Always Faithful: A Story of the War in Afghanistan, the Fall of Kabul, and the Unshakeable Bond between a Marine and an Interpreter "A raw and honest account of the making of a marine officer. The Corps and the country could use a few more young people like Chris." - Charles U. Daly, USMC (Ret.), Silver Star recipient, author of Make Peace or Die: A Life of Service, Leadership, and Nightmares
Synopsis
I had been fortunate enough to seize an opportunity...to explore the unknown. To be denied this experience or to somehow have it stripped away would have left me with one looming question: what might have been? When Chris Pavlak failed the bar exam in 2006 and 2007, the comfortable optimism of becoming an attorney vanished, replaced by feelings of shame, humiliation, and inadequacy. Fixated on the financial ascendancy of being a lawyer for a large law firm, Chris had attended law school for all the wrong reasons. In that hypercompetitive environment he became singularly focused on comparing himself to others, status, and making money. When chaos reared its ugly head in the form of repeated failures, he realized he would have to radically reshape his life. Uncertain about where a new path might lead, Chris embarked on a life of service in the United States Marine Corps. In From Lawyer to Warrior, Chris shows how failure might be considered an opportunity to willfully and courageously confront the chaos of life. The crucible of Marine officer training and the privilege of leading Marines ultimately helped recalibrate the vision of his life. This is an honest and inspirational memoir about reinvention and reclamation-of finding meaning in the uniqueness of personal tragedy by being absorbed in something bigger than yourself, camaraderie, and being responsible for others.

- o***t (3185)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGreat service. Beautiful book. However there is a glitch in the iPhone app, the database, and/or the website with showing the image of the book (not even the stock image) when I scroll down my list of purchases. However it was well worth it for my father’s 75th birthday, which it arrived exactly on. Book 5/5, seller 5/5 (maybe), eBay tech 3/5 or less.
