"In this time of change and uncertainty, John Hope Bryant's fundamental optimism and clear vision are necessary and inspiring. He challenges us to renew our commitment to the American Dream and create inclusive opportunity for all Americans. John's voice is essential to our national dialogue on how we build the future." --Dan Schulman, President and CEO, PayPal " Up from Nothing explains how to really level the playing field--ensuring everyone can attain the Five Pillars of Success--with critical tools like education, financial literacy, and access to role models. In this book, John Hope Bryant shares how your perspective and passion can help determine your potential in life and demonstrates the power within each of us to influence and control our own reality." --Roger Goodell, Commissioner, National Football League "My friend John is the real deal. He came from humble beginnings to become the premier authority on financial literacy. At a time when it's needed the most, John has written an inspiring book that will provide the tools needed to improve this nation's financial health, restore families, and embrace our communities once again. I strongly encourage you to read it." --Dikembe Mutombo, NBA Hall of Famer and Global Ambassador " Up from Nothing " is essential reading about a once-in-a-generation reset. The creation of an equitable and sustainable future requires strong communities and shared accountability. This all starts at the local level where neighbors, local businesses, and meaningful connections have the power to create a rising tide that lifts all boats." --Sarah Friar, OBE, CEO, Nextdoor Inc.

Synopsis
A bestselling author and entrepreneur outlines the mindset and methods we need to achieve the American Dream no matter what our current circumstances are. Facing a challenging economy, too many Americans despair of improving their lives. But John Hope Bryant insists that America is still the Land of Opportunity. Up from Nothing revives the forgotten story of the American Dream. It's about our beginnings as a nation of go-getters who believed they were winners before they won. Using the inspiring story of his own rise from humble beginnings, and that of his parents and grandparents, Bryant shows how individually we can change our mindset from survivor to thriver to winner and move beyond just getting by or being financially independent to becoming wildly successful. Collectively, we need to become a nation of winners once again. By ensuring that every stakeholder in America has access to the Five Pillars of Success-massive education, financial literacy, strong family structure, self-esteem, and supportive role models-Bryant shows how we can fulfill the promise of America's greatness. But to do so, we must turn away from distractions-such as political in-fighting or racial and class divisions-and focus on what we can control. This is not a book of tips on how to get a better job or make more money. It's about adopting a new way of thinking that will do all that for us and more. Up from Nothing is the new (old) business plan to keep us winning as a country. "John Bryant reminds us that the American Dream wasn't meant for some of us, but for all of us. Nobody has worked harder to lift the horizons for those without hope." -Quincy Jones "John takes us back to an idea of America where all can win. Instead of getting mired down by envy, greed, hate, and despair, John challenges us to rise up with positive thinking, self-confidence, aspiration, and hope-and to do it together." -Brad Hanson, president and CEO, Meta Financial Group and Metabank, A bestselling author and entrepreneur outlines the mindset and methods we need to achieve the American Dream no matter what our current circumstances are.
