Celebration resident Hannah V Holmes has published her first book and she’s only 15 years old! Do BIG: A Self-Help Guide to Getting Your Goals and Building Better Habits became a #1 New Release on Amazon just two days after its release in June.
“The book shows people how to be the successful person they were meant to be through practical ways they can go about finding motivation, boosting confidence, thinking big and much more,” says Hannah.
The book appeals to all ages, but primarily teens and young adults who are working to figure out what they want out of life and how to get there. Holmes’ message is about more than just finding success, but through finding deeper meaning because of our impact on others. From encouragement to do the impossible to downright hilarious personal stories, Hannah says she shows people practical ways they can become the successful person they were meant to be through achieving their goals.
Her book is a guide to help today’s youth navigate the pitfalls of modern society, be inspired when their journey is unpopular with others, and step forward even when the path is laden with setbacks. Each chapter shows her readers how to set and reach their goals, deal with those who may not want them to succeed, and find happiness within themselves.
“I really wanted a book for teens, written by a teen, encouraging them to DO BIG!,” says Hannah. “Most importantly, I wanted them to hear a friendly voice of encouragement in a world that can often be filled with naysayers.”
The lessons Holmes conveys in Do BIG are ones she has learned in her journey to become the nation’s first girl to earn all 137-merit badges for the Boy Scouts. Through teaching herself how to stay motivated and to think big, she’s also become a 3rd degree black belt in Taekwondo, a certified SCUBA diver, an Eagle Scout and a Junior in College.
Do BIG is available on Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes & Nobl, and on Instagram Shop @hannahvholmes.
