How? Because Tim was determined to rise above his humble beginnings ... despite the heart-wrenching and dark secrets of the circumstances surrounding his birth family. The statistics that often predict a foster child's future success rarely fall in their favor -- and this was particularly true in the 1960s and 1970s when abuse of the most vulnerable children was rampant. Could Tim develop the resilience and tools to survive ill-equipped and ambivalent parents, poverty, and an entire childhood spent in foster care? The answer is a resounding yes. This true story explores the many people and circumstances that made up Tim's life as he made his way through a confusing maze of experiences. He drew upon his incredible inner reserves to beat the status quo and become a renowned name in the fitness world. Author Tim Green delivers his nearly unbelievable autobiography - a powerful story that offers hope to any child struggling to fit into a world despite not having the support of a birth family. Tim's story will remain with you for life."Growing older is like climbing a mountain: the higher you get, the more strength you need, but the further you see." - Ingmar Bergman"--amazon.com. 541 $d 20181127. 600 14 $a Tim Green $q Timothy Paul Green $v Biography. 600 14 $a Tim Green $q Timothy Paul Green $v Autobiography. 600 14 $a Tim Green $q Timothy Paul Green. 650 $a Foster children $v Biography. 650 $a Foster children. 650 $a Personal trainers $v Biography. 941 $a 1 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20240515010428.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C1EA3BB8373811E9B7E2BD1697128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
