He dreamed of escaping the dreary routines, lack of social mobility, and violent run-ins with Syrian soldiers to live a life of his choosing.While recounting his experiences of how his dream came true through perseverance, education, and an unbending work ethic, Uygur also shares advice that guides others to attain their own versions of success by pursuing education, taking risks and seizing opportunities, overcoming failure, questioning deep-held assumptions, and maintaining a progressive, positive attitude.
