About the Author
|
Sharaka M. Leonard was born and raised on the west side of Chicago, Illinois. Leonard was estranged from her mother, never knew her father, and has no siblings. Leonard’s environment shaped who she is, but it never stopped her. Storytelling became one of her creative outlets.
As a college graduate with a BA and an MBA, Leonard has always been interested in learning, empowering, and bettering herself. She has been her own cheerleader for so long. She feels others need that cheerleader as well: someone to walk the journey with you, not in front of or behind you. Leonard is vested in the personal growth of others; she wants to see them level up. She chooses to share her experience and knowledge with others. Leonard is the founder and CEO of Think and Yap, LLC. She is an entrepreneur with an MBA in Human Resources and has a gift with her expression of words. As a researcher and life cheerleader for family and friends, Leonard has taken what she does in everyday life and compiled those thoughts, feelings, and observations into this creative body of work. She shares her life in the hopes that it inspires others to take action. She shows how you can be the boss of your own life now and fire the people within not ready for the journey. |

Why I Write!
I wanted to write something I would read myself. Something that didn't try to feed me a bunch of bull and unnecessary info. Something that got to the meat and potato and shut out all the noise that may bombard us day today. Real value for real change.
I want to help. I want to inspire. I want to grow with my audience, improve my writing, and share my stories. I wish to consult, give seminars and speeches. I will attend and share my experience. I want to change the game and bring others with me.
I want to see more businesswomen and men. More Thousandaire & More Millionaires. More sustainable live hoods, wherever your dreams and goals take you. You be the boss of your life; you be the boss of your destiny. We only use so much of our minds; why not try to double it and do the impossible. All things seem impossible until someone makes it possible.

Reader's Reviews!
Awakened the BOSS in me!
Amazing read. I love how the author breaks down these rules and elaborates on each one. Many books like this kind of leave you in the unknown after reading, but not this one.
Quick and to the point, I wish I could add a extra star for the author including her contact info for discussion, encouraging engagement! I mean, all around satisfied with my purchase. I went to search for more books by this author and couldn't find any which is a bit disappointing, so I'll be on the look out for new content.

Know the Rules. Boss Rule 5: Pimp yourself. This rule is sooo true!
“Don’t let anyone box you in. Set the standard and FORCE those around you to acknowledge it.”
