Recent release "Shine Sir?" from Page Publishing author Ric Rivera is an autobiography detailing the journey of a little boy who shined shoes and dreamed of so much more. Through all of life's most poignant victories and tragic losses, the little shoe shiner learned the value of perseverance and a strong mindset.
CENTENNIAL, Colo., July 02, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ric Rivera, a successful businessman who built himself through his own will and determination, has completed his new book "Shine Sir?": an inspirational autobiography of his journey from shoe-shine boy to successful business mogul.
Rivera writes, "This tale is about a boy who lost his father to an auto-train accident at age eight. The story traverses his climb from the lowest rung in life while shining shoes on dusty streets through his many pivotal moments in life. His determination and drive were fed by his refusal to accept his lowly position on the totem pole. This drove him to vow that he would never accept that status. His faith, his belief that God would help him, came in the form of a gift from God, a literal message he took as a sign that God would always be there for him."
Published by Page Publishing, Ric Rivera's provocative tale is a story of a deep and abiding faith that powered his drive to personal growth and achievement.
After his father's untimely death, Ric and his six siblings were forced to take jobs to assist in supporting the family after they relocated to live with his grandparents in their Spanish-style hacienda in Taos, New Mexico. After spending years as a shoe-shine boy, his bilingual skills led to a prestigious position as a Spanish Linguist for the US Navy, including a special assignment with the NSA during the Bay of Pigs invasion. The trials of Navy life and his brush with death in a torrential storm at sea led Ric back to his firm belief in God as his protector. A winding tale of major victories and tragic losses follows Ric's journey from sleeping in his car to the building of his own riverside abode.
Readers who wish to experience this motivating work can purchase "Shine Sir?" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
