In it, he shares how he navigated a multitude of life challenges and consciously determined what direction his life would take and how he was going to be purposeful on this earth: how he would discover and fulfill his destiny.
Derrick, has always believed that you determine your destiny on this earth. And that, it is our determination to overcome life's challenges that dictates how we live our lives-how we conduct ourselves in every situation. Unfortunately, many of us have not developed the discipline and life skills that are required to overcome adversity thereby limiting our ability to accomplish our major life goals. He, however, has learned that when we are willing to look within ourselves for answers rather than becoming fixated on our current circumstances and areas in which there appears to be a lack, we automatically empower ourselves to find greater inner strength and hope. Most importantly, we get to a place where it is impossible for us to find excuses for not achieving our goals due to external factors. Instead, we begin to see that the true "Enemy in the Bush" is our internal demons, negative thinking, and other limitations that we place on our ourselves.
By sharing his life story and Five Key Principles that have helped him successfully navigate life's challenges and accomplish many of his major life goals, his hope is that this book will equip you with the ability to identify and conquer the "Enemy in the Bush" at every stage of your life.
