About Author: Antwaun Thompson

Inspiration for writing the book: The lessons taught and lessons learned from the very kids that inspire my mission of preparing the next generation of leaders. Many kids have shared things with me that they do not feel sharing with their parents. This shows a level of trust that they have in me as a person and mentor. This, itself is all the inspiration I needed to write this book.

Decision to commit my career to empowering young men and women: The sacrifice that my father made when he not only married my mom, but also legally adopting me at a very young age and raising me as his biological son, teaching me life lessons that would transform my life was my motivation to do the same for as many young men and women as I can.

How basketball inspired the S.E.A. of Success®mentoring program: From my first year of coaching in 1985, I have been preaching three things; keep it simple, apply maximum effort and keep a positive attitude. They have been the key elements to the success of every team that I have ever coached, and has been a great empowerment tool for the student athletes. Instilling this discipline, approach, mindset and philosophy has been a life changer for me as well.

How the personal growth and development components were selected for the book: There are so many areas that impact the lives of preteens and teens, but focusing on the ones that have the most immediate and substantial affect were what led to the selection of goal setting, leadership, accountability, communication, character building, confidence, personal responsibility, time management, relationships, conflict transformation/resolution and influencing.

The implementation of real life stories and experiences: When attempting to teach, coach or mentor kids, it is vitally important to have examples of experiences that they can relate to, and that was the importance of including real experiences that not only support the messaging, but also shows the impact that these experiences had on me as a coach and mentor.

Call To Action: By writing this book, my end goal is to connect with parents, preteens, teens and educators to educate, support and inspire through one on one and group settings.
