This book by Will Packer is absolutely unbelievable with the highlight of black culture that is undermined by Hollywood. It really encourages me by reading and listening to all stories and lessons and I hope that it can be go to movie so everyone can watch it.

You may or may not recognize Will Packer by his name, however, it's pretty much guaranteed you've seen one of the more than 30 films he's produced since his first, "Chocolate City," while at Florida A&M University.

While you may not recognize the title "Chocolate City," films such as "Straight Outta Compton," "Girls Trip," "Ride Along," "Night School," "Stomp the Yard," and a host of others have contributed to Packer's films stacking up over $1 billion at the worldwide box-office.

"Who Better Than You?: The Art of Healthy Arrogance & Dreaming Big" is part autobiography and part inspirational/self-help. In the book, Packer serves up a clear vision on how to manifest one's own success by believing there is no one on the planet more deserving of it than you.

In some ways, really major ways, much of what Packer writes about here is familiar knowledge. What really amplifies it is Packer's own personal experiences and voice. He's lived it. He's still living it. And he's enthusiastic about sharing both personal and professional advice on business, leadership, legacy, and even in the circle that one creates.

"Who Better Than You?" is more experiential than prescriptive. We learn about the values and audacity that Packer possesses and how he's used that throughout his career. I read "Who Better Than You?" right as I was getting into the groove of a fundraising experience far larger than I've ever attempted - I've always been more of a grassroots fundraiser, however, the opportunity arose to tackle a bigger project and I decided it was time to really lean into it. "Who Better Than You?" offers advice, tips, encouragement, and examples of how to possess a healthy arrogance to create a better you, a better business, a better life - simply better.

Did I necessarily resonate with everything here? Nah, not really. That's probably not realistic. However, even when I didn't quite click with the material I found myself enjoying Packer's laid back, personable storytelling and learning about his path toward success.

"Who Better Than You?" is an enjoyable, engaging, and informative read for creatives, business leaders, activists, or just about anyone else who needs a supportive voice to head down a path toward dreaming bigger and living larger. At first, I wasn't really sure I was getting into "Who Better Than You?," however, a few chapters in I realized just how much of Packer's material I was retaining.

I've already started applying pieces of what Packer talks about here as I approach my own latest outreach effort and I'm already seeing positive results. With energy and enthusiasm, Packer becomes the literary life coach you never knew you needed.
