UPstander International has released its 6th book through its publishing division, Free Your Mind Publishing. "The UPstander's Guide to an Outstanding Life" is a book geared towards college and high school students who are so committed to their cause that they have neglected to take care of themselves. The book outlines 7 core principles that are needed for these students to live their best life, while at the same time changing the world. 

Says Omekongo Dibinga, the author of this book: "After traveling to 19 countries and speaking to thousands of students across the globe, I began to see that there was a universal need for this kind of book. This is the book I needed to read when I was in college. After seeing student after student approach me, sometimes in tears and ask me how they can achieve balance in their life with their rigorous college schedules and social justice cause, I began putting this book together. From dealing with issues such as seeking out mentors to showing students the importance of following their own dreams, this book helps students find the balance they need to live not just a succsessful life, but a happy life as well."

Dr. Jeni Stepanek, mother of the late peace activist, Mattie Stepanek says that "This book will support readers in staying true to their cause and becoming their best self." John Prendergast of The Enough! Project says "This [book] is a must-read for any student who wants to make a change in this world and maintain their sanity!"
