No weapon against you is stronger than the worst version of yourself. That is the essential insight of this timely book. The Mind Hustler, or TMH, which sounds appropriately like a dangerous drug that can destroy you with your own cooperation. This does not mean that you do not face hardships that are not of your own making. We sometimes catch bad hands in the card game of life. Dr. Keith Gilyard When I wanted to straighten my life out because I no longer wanted to live the way I was living, The Mind Hustler convinced me to wait until tomorrow to get started. Tomorrow became the next day until it was next year or when I got out of the box (solitary confinement). The Mind Hustler convinced me I had to do something to maintain my status although I wanted to change the way I was living. That is what hustling backward looks like. B. Sincere Wilson The Mind Hustler is thorough getting to you, holding on to you, and killing you if it can. T.M.H. can start the hustle when you are a hurt child with low self-esteem. The hustle is cunning, you hear the whisper of your pain and will do negative things to yourself to relieve the pain, be it drugs, alcohol, sex, etc. If you realize that you have been hustled, you better fight for your LIFE...no, fight for your very SOUL, or DIE! Marjorie Montgomery Many of us have met The Mind Hustler and have purchased some of his product. Whether it was an ounce of peer pressure, or an ounce of greed, we must educate ourselves in order to be able to ward off the Mind Hustler's attempt to sell us something that is detrimental to our lives.
