The Upside of Fear by Weldon Long Book Summary

The Upside of Fear allows reader to experience the harsh reality of a criminal life and creates a riveting portrait of true crime at its fundamental level.  From buying the duct tape for an armed robbery to saving the life of a prison guard, author Weldon Long recounts his harrowing journey of self-discovery and how he went from being a drunk in a jail cell to the CEO of a multimillion-dollar business. Twenty years of drinking, robbing, drugging, and lying led Long to more than a decade of time spent in prisons, jails, and halfway houses - and a more strained relationship with a son he barely knew. 
Through the revealing perspective of an eloquent criminal, readers will discover how to use fear as a positive motivating force and use the mind to strengthen the will, even in the bleakest of circumstances.  Long's story demonstrates that love can redeem even the most hopeless criminal, and that there can be no emotions stronger than the desire for redemption and the love of a father separated from his son by prison bars.
--
Weldon Long knows firsthand that Maui is nicer than prison. After thirteen years of federal and state incarceration, he emerged a transformed man: a powerful speaker, driven motivator, and successful trainer / entrepreneur.  Long has a BS in Law and an MBA in Management, despite dropping out of high school in the ninth grade.  Yes, he went to jail...not Yale.

Life changing. I saw Long in a conference where he was the guess speaker to a sales person who was the main speaker. For me it was the opposite, I learned so much that morning from Long's conference I'm still developing day by day changes in my life. As I read this book I can remember him and I can relate to this story putting a face and a voice from a guy that has overcome the hardest test of life and the most intense adversities a human being should. Truly inspiring and amazing.

The upside of fear. While taking a class of Wally's in Raleigh, NC, I purchased this book on line. That was yesterday. Today I've finished reading his book and now I am ready for the next one, and maybe the next step in my life. Looking forward to both...

The upside of FEAR. Excellent book excellent way to get a new life excellent way to motivate these that doesn't have hope. Thanks Mr Long for exchange with others his life ......

Uplifting. I will carry these words for a long time. Thank you for the gift

A true inspiration. Weldon Long shares his life story filled with despair and self-inflicted pain. Yet, at the depth of his despair, he found himself and a purpose to his life. As a reader of his story, it became increasingly obvious that hitting rock bottom is not a prerequisite for using the techniques Weldon employed to remake himself in the image he visualized while in prison. Weldon, thank you for sharing your message!

A Must Read!. I was fortunate to hear Weldon give his testimony and received a copy of this book. What an incredible story of a person who refused to quit and see his dreams come true! This book and hearing Weldon's teachings has changed my life forever....I am truly a disciple of The Upside of Fear!!!! Thanks Weldon for being honest, humble, and transparent.

Inspirational and motivational. I lived this book! I couldn't put it down. I remember Wally from 8th grade, so I was especially intrigued to read his story, but I'd recommend it for anyone. Give it as a gift to anyone who needs encouraging!
