NEW YORK—December 15, 2020—Morgan James’ new release, Reawakening an American Dream: Creating Your Path to Financial Freedom by Kevin J. Palmer, reveals the hidden secrets first-time millionaires have used to gain abundance or achieve financial freedom.

Kevin J. Palmer knows the downsides of a one-size-fits-all, “get-rich-quick” approach to generating wealth. He claims that many financial experts present information from the singular, subjective lens of personal experience, rather than tested and proven techniques.

Palmer’s approach offers individualized options for success. Reawakening an American Dream examines hundreds of different personalities in order to determine that success and failure often occur due to various personal motivations, not just external or circumstantial factors. By unlocking personal potential, Kevin J. Palmer illuminates behavioral thinking that can pave the way for wealth and success to naturally unfold—retooling the mind for individual best use. Within Reawakening an American Dream, motivated men and women will take away practical insights from Palmer’s “Secret Success Standards” and reinforce personality traits that will guide them toward success.
