In Rise Above, Kenny Knight III gets real about the experiences that shaped his mindset—from growing up with humble beginnings and making mistakes as a young man, to serving in the military, building businesses, suffering devastating losses, and learning how to keep moving when life gets heavy.

This isn’t a book about pretending everything is positive.

It’s about choosing to rise anyway.

Because your circumstances don’t get to decide who you become. Your past doesn’t get to dictate your future. And a bad day doesn’t have to become a bad life.

You may not be able to control what happens to you.

But you can control how you respond.

Put your armor on.

Change your attitude.

Find the lesson.

Win the small battles.

And when life tries to keep you down—

RISE ABOVE.
