Every day, we all face the same question: Will I choose knowledge... or fall for foolishness?

Knowledge Over Foolishness is more than a book?it's a real-life blueprint for anyone who has ever been surrounded by chaos but refused to be claimed by it. Born and raised on the northeast side of Houston during the crack era of the 80s and 90s, author James knows what it means to walk through fire and still come out clean. With murder, drugs, and poverty all around him, he never drank, smoked, stole, or gave in?not out of pride, but because of the values his parents instilled deep in his soul.

Through 10 powerful chapters filled with raw truth, personal stories, and spiritual wisdom, James shows readers how to:

Stand firm in a world that keeps trying to pull you down

Lead with calm strength, not ego

Rise above generational pain and poverty

Make daily decisions that protect your purpose

Succeed in life and business without losing your integrity

From the quiet wisdom of his father to the relentless strength of his mother, this book is both a tribute and a challenge?to live differently, love deeper, and build a life that means something.

If you've ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or counted out?this book was written for you.
