Through powerful storytelling and step-by-step guidance, readers will learn how to transform their struggles into strength and their dreams into reality. Discover Your Dragon is more than a book— it’ s a transformational guide to building strength, character, and self-belief. Written by Donald Hyun Kiolbassa, a gold-medalist martial artist, CPA, lawyer, leader of a world-renowned martial arts team, and Mortal Kombat motion capture artist, this book distills the ancient teachings of the Shaolin Temple into five practical steps that empower young readers, parents, and educators alike: 1) HARD WORK, 2) HEALTH, 3) BALANCE, 4) SKILLS and 5) GOALS.
