Hero Living

In his publishing debut, Rudy Reyes introduces his philosophy of "Hero Living": part Homer, part Joseph Campbell, part Bruce Lee and part Spider-Man. The various stages in the journey aim to bring forth the hero within: recognising the hero''s call, following the hero''s path and returning from life''s battlefield with the hero''s hard-earned wisdom.Taking readers step-by-step through his programme, Reyes draws from his own heroic story of how he triumphed over his harrowing childhood experiences of poverty and abandonment. Rather than giving up hope, he heeded the hero''s call to live up to his full potential - first as a martial-arts champion, then as an elite warrior in the mountains of Afghanistan and on the sands of Iraq and finally in his post-Marines life as a personal trainer, actor and motivational speaker.
