Our answer is in the subtitle: Awakening To Life’s Brutal Realities.

He also clarifies that he is not promoting any specific religion or dogma, but rather a way of living that can help anyone find serenity in sobriety.

People care so much about their popularity, their appearance, and their status. They care about what people think, whether others approve, and how they measure up.
