What I Wish I Knew at 18 is the inaugural work of LifeSmart Publishing, LLC, whose mission is “Empowering the Next Generation™”. Its focus will be on providing teens and young adults with practical, before the fact, wisdom and success keys for a fulfilling life. Similarly, work will be directed toward the many adults who guide them, namely, parents and caregivers, grandparents, educators, coaches, faith leaders, and mentors. Future plans include the creation of leader and student study guides to facilitate use in educational, faith, and small group settings. Other resources will be developed to help our young people succeed in life and achieve their full potential.
In time, the Resources section of the website will be expanded to include references to books, websites, and articles from other people and organizations who share this important mission. LifeSmart Publishing and Dennis Trittin also invite the audience to provide recommendations for specific topics of interest.
