Adversitology Title

8x Bestselling Author Frank McKinney

Highlight reel for the 26-city, 27-day, 4630-mile Adversitology Book Tour (below)!

What if this book is the lifeline you need?

Let’s face it: adversity is an unavoidable part of every life. Serious trouble comes for all of us, threatening to ruin our finances, physical and mental health, or relationships. And if you’ve ever felt as if you were barely hanging on while dealing with something big …

You’re not alone…

Bestselling author Frank McKinney, the “real estate rock czar,” was at the top of his game when his perfect world, his Midas touch, was destroyed in an instant. He had successfully dealt with adversity all his life, but it wasn’t until receiving a devastating diagnosis that he really had to face it down. Could his magic carpet ride be ending so soon? It appeared that way. His doctor’s prognosis was essentially a death sentence.

Frank retreated, choosing to keep his condition, and his plan to persevere through it, cloaked in secrecy from all but five people — not even his family knew — until now.

Three years later, completely clear of any trace of the deadly intruder and in his most personally revealing book yet, Frank shares it all, along with insights from his enigmatic wife, Nilsa, and their courageous daughter, Laura.

  • Exactly what it took to overcome this life-threatening obstacle and how you can courageously handle any hardship too
  • Trials in his business, personal relationships, and spiritual life as parallels for whatever you might be facing
  • Hard-won insights that lead to practical actions for addressing your setbacks, whether they are deadly serious or just seriously difficult

Adversitology Book Tour: 26 cities, 27 days, 4630 miles…1 message: Overcoming Adversity

Enjoy the Adversitology Book Tour highlight reel – one of the “Top 10” experiences of my life.

Yes, the Tour is over, yet it’s message of hope, faith, and belief endures.

As I peered into the desperate eyes of thousands of hurting souls across the country, I witnessed even the smallest spark of hope, the faintest ember of optimism, grow into a dazzling sparkle of belief and a raging inferno of joy when those I met understood that they too could overcome their physical, financial, relational, or spiritual adversities!

Watch the video again. Pause it. Look into their eyes. Do you see it?

Homeless shelters, soup kitchens, women’s facilities, detention centers, colleges, treatment facilities, veterans organizations, reverse panhandling, and just the people we met on the street – so many hanging on by a thread.

Don’t you ever let go! Adversitology is there for you and your loved ones when that rope seems so frayed that it’s about to break. It won’t, if you don’t let go – I promise.

I want to thank Juan Restrepo, the “Juan & Only,” a Caring House Project Board Member, for driving ALL 4,630 miles, for filming/photographing EVERYTHING, and for his calming spiritual presence. I could never have completed this tour without Juan. I love him dearly.

I want to sincerely thank Carli Brinkman for PR and media, George Monteiro for our montage videos, and Dennis Moran (another CHP Board member) for booking all 26 venues.

Adversitology: Overcoming Adversity When You’re Hanging on by a Thread is available on Amazon in paperback,  hardcover, Audible, and Kindle.

For each copy sold our Caring House Project is able to provide 100 meals in our Haiti villages.

Thank you for all your prayers and support during the Adversitology Book Tour.

Until life’s next great mystery…

Powerful, honest, and moving. One of the best books I’ve read in my life!

Adversitology is an amazing and honest look at the authors near death experience and the practical process he has developed to replicate the success he had in overcoming his adversity. The use of writing in the third person was masterfully done and weaving in the monologue of his wife and daughter brought context, emotion, and perspective to the entire book. I put the Adversitology process to work in my life and it’s making a measurable impact on challenges I’m dealing with! I suggest you try it as well if you’re facing any form of adversity. A read well worth your time!

A Brilliant Book Full Of Wisdom From Some Who Has Made Full Use Of His God-Given Talents

I listened to the Audible version of this book and was glad I did. Frank is a masterful story teller who shares some powerful life lessons. I especially enjoyed hearing the voices of his wife, Nilsa and daughter, Laura, which underscore the strength of their family and interpersonal relationships. There is something in this book for everyone and particularly those confronting any kind of adversity.

He Lives It Before He Writes It!

What I love about Frank’s book is he lives it before he writes and publishes it in a book. This isn’t a theoretical book on change. It’s about Frank’s Forward, Relentless Journey Every Single Day!

Frank McKinney is “On mission!” for those who need inspiration on their mission!

I was blessed to discover Frank years ago and enjoyed his other books “The Tap”, “Dead Fred, Flying Lunch Boxes, and Good Luck Circle”, “Aspire”, and am looking forward to going back to read all of his other books. I started reading “Adversitology” with my wife over the weekend. The first chapter is riveting and knowing Frank, this book is perfectly timed for the days we are living. Folks need hope, vision, aspiration, and an example to follow. Frank’s writings are brutally and insightfully honest. He awakens my faith and spirit providing a way to emulate by his example and helping me to position to overcome and inspire others in my own circle. Being comfortable is dangerous in our time. Adversity is uncomfortable on the “stress meter,” but Frank helps the reader to find ways to be resilient in the struggle. I am looking forward to completing the book this week! On mission.

Taught me to turn my adversities into motivational tools!

I found this book to be incredibly impactful and inspiring in giving me a new perspective on dealing with life’s challenges. Frank has come through both a lifetime of self-inflicted, and most recently, the ultimate uncontrollable adversity life can throw at you- yet he’s still discovered a way to come out of it stronger than ever, and he’s shared that discovery is a way that is applicable to virtually any of life’s challenges- no matter how big or small or where they show up in our lives. I found the accounts from him and his family so honest and authentic and helped to demonstrate the reality of any human journey: imperfect and never linear. The insight is provided so formulaically that there’s no guessing work, and so inspiring that you’re enthusiastically ready to apply the steps. After months of being out of commission from a knee injury, I started reading the book on a Wednesday, and by that Saturday I was back out on the trail, marathon training again. I’ll be in good enough shape to run the Boston Marathon this year- a goal that I didn’t think was humanly possible a few short months ago. I’m so grateful I picked this book up.
