 The title of this book\, Six Dimes and a Nickel\, is slang for the author'
 s prison sentence: sixty-five years. But he re-defined himself in prison\,
  having learned from his first friend there that when you are in hot water
  you change. Some things\, like eggs\, become hard in hot water. Other thi
 ngs fall apart or get ruined in hot water\, silk fabric for example. A cof
 fee bean in hot water becomes something better than it was. West changed h
 is attitude\, his way of dealing with people\, and other facets of himself
  and got paroled after just a few years. He relates this coffee bean conve
 rsation early in this very engaging book to assure readers that if he coul
 d improve himself and the course of his life\, anyone can. \n\n \n\nAs the
  publisher says\, "If you want to not only make a change in your life\, bu
 t discover how to maintain that change and become the best version of your
 self\, then you’ve come to the right place. The principles and stories i
 n this book are the blueprint for how Damon rewrote his story and\, if app
 lied\, how you can rewrite yours."
