About Corey

My name is Corey Stokes. I am the Author of On this Day and Man to Man. These two books of poetry have opened doors for me that I never thought would be opened. Since writing and self-publishing these two books, I have discovered that man can create the world and life he wants. What’s more, if I can do it, you can too. That’s right; you can make your dream come true. It is my desire to help you do just that.

This blog is focused on personal development, leadership, fitness, and financial literacy. I believe that if you are secure in these areas, you can make a difference in the world and live the life you want.

I aim to provide insightful and relevant content that you can use personally and professionally. I believe we are all in a position to inspire and make a difference in the lives of people around us; this blog is my contribution.

I typically post every month, but this may change as I get inspired to write. To ensure you don’t miss my newest posts, you can subscribe to receive my posts via email and follow me on Facebook and Twitter.

As I share my experiences and stories, I hope you will join the conversation and offer your thoughts, suggestions, and comments.

Every day is a new day to learn, grow, and move toward the life you really want.  My Life is a D.I.Y., and I hope you will join me as I build it one project at a time.
