CHICAGO, Dec. 10, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Having experienced many trials as well as wondrous miracles, Dr. Willie Wilson's life proves that faith, boldness, hard work and commitment can produce incredible success and wealth. Those same attributes empowered him to approach Ray Kroc, Chairman of McDonald's Corporation, and ask for a McDonald's restaurant. Realizing that Wilson was penniless but totally determined to succeed, Kroc gave him a restaurant, which helped him start his climb up that long ladder of success and later establish himself as a social phenomenon all over America. This is the enduring true story that readers will experience with the release of his critically acclaimed book, "What Shall I Do Next When I Don't Know Next What To Do?"
This book shares the extraordinary story of a man whose phenomenal rise has been shaped by his strong faith in Jesus Christ. Filled with honesty, simplicity and self-deprecating wit, this volume describes Wilson's long journey from the cotton fields of Louisiana to the boardrooms of corporate America, with all its stumbles, side trips, emotional moments, defeats and victories. It provides readers an in-depth look at an amazing man who has overcome seemingly insurmountable odds, and now expresses his profound gratitude to the Lord through unceasing generosity and philanthropy. From the first page until the very end, this book will inspire you to keep the faith and will encourage you to make a difference in the lives of others.
"Mr. Wilson is a rare bird on the American landscape -- self-made black millionaire and philanthropist. Neither a sports hero nor a celebrity, he has made his money the old-fashioned way, as a quintessential can-do American in an America that hasn't always been kind to his aspirations." -- Wall Street Journal
