When tragedy strikes it can be hard to imagine life will ever be good again. But if you refuse to give up, you can find new opportunities that lead to success beyond your dreams.
Chris Singleton, a baseball player turned real estate investor, is a firsthand example of how your response to hardship can take your life in a surprising and successful direction. Chris was a college baseball standout with big league aspirations when his mother was senselessly murdered. Navigating life after tragedy led him to stumble upon the importance of real estate investing, and pointed him away from the dugout and into a speaking career including Fortune 50 clients.
