Acknowledgments

---

One of the most influential people in my life has been my mother. Thank you for always believing in my abilities and never ever doubting me. You alone are responsible for instilling in me a drive to succeed.

This book wouldn't have been possible without my wife and children (Jordan, Jake, Jonah, and Mallorie). They are my inspiration and my life.

Thank you to my coworkers and especially my manager at HP, Kathy Morgan, for allowing me to grow through external projects such as this.

A big thank you to my in-laws, Chuck and Kris. Their love and support through the years would take more than a lifetime to pay back.

Thank you, Damon. You're the only one who truly understands the strangeness of my mind.

Finally, Parkside Church deserves my thanks for serving as my second family and providing an atmosphere of love and friendship, truly showing how blessed they all are.
