"Charles Garcia's "A Message from Garcia" provides both inspiration and message. The inspiration comes from his own story, effectively woven throughout the book; the message comes from his demonstration that success is neither born nor given, but earned through effective education, careful understanding of self, and fundamental expertise in the work you choose to do. Garcia got it right. Reading his book helps the rest of us get it right too."
--John V. Lombardi, Chancellor, University of Massachusetts Amherst

"America is the land of opportunity. I came to this country with empty pockets, a head filled with dreams, and a desire to succeed. I tell young people all the time that if you believe in yourself, you can do anything. "A Message from Garcia" wonderfully echoes these thoughts and more, explaining principles of success in a lighthearted manner that will pump you full of energy and excitement to dream big and achieve your goals."
--Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California

Success can be measured in various ways, but ultimately, success is defined by the person striving to achieve it. Charles Patrick Garcia knows this well. Throughout his career, from Chairman of the Cadet Honor Committee at the U.S. Air Force Academy to White House Fellow to CEO of the nation's fastest growing Hispanic-owned business-Garcia has learned how to succeed, and now he wants to show people from all walks of life, at any age, how to do the same in both business and life.
