The author narrates how an indebted widow almost lost her sons to slavery due to a default in loan repayment. When she sought help from a trusted mentor, she expected a temporary solution, but got what she never anticipated. Instead of giving her money, the Prophet asked her what she had at home. Feeling disadvantaged, she replied she had nothing except a small jar of oil.

With wise counsel from the mentor and an obedient heart from the mentee, that small jar of oil transformed the widow's life beyond her wildest imagination. Who could have imagined the value that came out of that little oil? In What Do You Have? the author helps the reader understand the enigma of little and how to fix a psychological crisis of 'barely enough' that limits self-actualization.

The decision to control how we see or perceive things, she portrays is actually our choice to make.

Poverty, she reveals is a function of misinterpreting little as insufficient. So, how can you convert your little to surplus and weakness to strength? Find out how to embark on the process of re-invention in this self-help book, What Do You Have? Contemporary Success Strategies from an Ancient Story.
