Warren R. Abbott has lived a life filled with work, learning, and steady creativity. From his early paper route at Fort Myer Army Base to producing precision jet-airplane parts at age seventy-five, every chapter of his life reflects effort, curiosity, and a desire to learn something new each day. His career spans the Smithsonian Institution, Kencraft Candy, Walmart, WINCO Foods, and Selmet Titanium. Along the way, he helped grow a small candy company to seven times its size, designed products for major retailers, supported teams in high-traffic stores, and worked with hundreds of people who shaped his understanding of true value.
Through stories from his own life and wisdom from teachers, workers, leaders, and ordinary people who made a difference, Abbott shows how strength grows from effort, how courage grows from trying, and how joy grows from sharing what you learn.
The Art of BECOMING is Warren R. Abbott’s clear and welcoming guide to building a life shaped by your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Abbott invites readers to create themselves rather than wait for life to decide who they are. The book shares practical ideas built on simple truths. What you think becomes the seed of who you grow into. What you feel shapes your direction. What you do each day forms the person you meet in the mirror.
Through stories of effort, courage, past mistakes, steady progress, and the wisdom of people he met throughout his life, from teachers to coworkers to lifelong friends, Abbott shows how small choices lead to long-term change.
