Christopher Brian Fello conveys his life-to-date story in the autobiography Authenticity: A Memoir & A Paradigm Shift - It’s Time to Go Legit. Fello was born and raised in the Philippines, loved and cared for by his family, and characterizes his childhood personality as mischievous. Once while playing with matches he accidentally burned the house down. As a teen and young adult, Fello was a ladies' man with innumerable girlfriends before starting college. He had an affinity for classical music thanks to his grandmother and was a voracious reader thanks to his mother. His many experiences include but are certainly not limited to being a computer hacker, nearly dying on the ocean sand, seeing cancer hit home and many other reasons why he decided to write and self-publish his book.

Fello's main reason is that he wants everyone to be confident, believe in themselves, aim for the stars, and be the best version of themselves that they can possibly be. I did not know what to expect when I picked up Authenticity: A Memoir & A Paradigm Shift - It’s Time to Go Legit by Christopher Brian Fello. I'm a Filipino-American woman and the maternal side of the family lives in Pasig and Baguio. I have a particular interest in authors who hail from a country bursting with talent but not the opportunities they deserve. Fello clearly has the talent to motivate and it shows in the enthusiasm he shares about his life. Putting editing issues aside and focusing on where Fello's skillset is in abundance, I'd peg Fello as a future motivational speaker. He is the type of guy you could put on a stage and everyone would walk out feeling like they could run the world. He really is that enthusiastic. Hand over heart, I hope this book gets the tidy-up it needs so that it lands in as many hands as possible.

Authenticity, A Memoir & A Paradigm Shift - It’s Time to Go Legit by Christopher Brian Fello is an inspirational memoir in which the author shares his personal journey and the insight he has gained in order to “Unleash The True Power of Your Authentic Self Against the Illusions and Power Plays of Modern Society”. This book is a monster with regard to its size but Fello uses both his and the reader's time wisely by effectively condensing three parts which, in the hands of a stingier author, could be rationed out in single volumes. Fello spends most of the book detailing his life story, which spans from his birth and upbringing in the Philippines to the writing of this book. From here, Fello's philosophy is applied with links back to how it has worked for him and why it will work for you. Finally, Fello shows readers how to apply the philosophy themselves and harness the limitless power that Fello promises we all possess.

Authenticity, A Memoir & A Paradigm Shift - It’s Time to Go Legit by Christopher Brian Fello feels less like a textbook and more like sitting down and having a conversation with a friend. This is intentional, and Fello continues to remind readers that this is who we are to him. We are his friends. When we mesh together Fello's unique writing style—complete with LOLs, happy faces, and text-type phonetically written prose—and balance it with profoundly honest admissions, like battles with depression, and self-doubt and jealousy in relationships despite a bad-boy image, we get the full picture of who Fello is as a person. As a man who was born and raised in an Asian country like Fello, I would ask that readers approach this book with linguistic and cultural differences set aside. Some things will not be comfortable, such as women on Tinder that were unwittingly used to prove a point when Fello had relationship issues of his own, but at its core, Fello's philosophy and its application are empowering. And when power is combined with a genuine mixed-tape soundtrack for each part, you have a winner. Recommended.

Dropping the metaphorical masks and being more open can help you avoid unnecessary complications in your life.
