Welcome to Savage Motivation! A place where the message is about inspiration, hope, and empowerment!
->Check out Dr. Savage’s highly anticipated new book! Available online on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Excerpt: I started writing this book years ago during a very difficult moment in graduate school. I didn't realize it at the time, but writing this book became my way of motivating and encouraging my way through this difficult time. This moment encouraged me to write something that would encourage other people who might also be going through a difficult time. I wanted people to believe in themselves and not to allow the limitations that others place on them or the hardships of life to get the best of them. This book is also my reflection on the power of God and everything He has meant to my life. It is a source of encouragement for anyone and everyone that needs it! This book highlights moments where I had a choice of going either left or right, backwards or forwards, to listen or not to listen, or to give up or keep going. These are inspirational moments and moments of impact. These are the moments I call A Few Steps in the Right Direction!
