Born and raised in a modest neighborhood on the Eastside of Detroit, Michigan, Arthur J. Rutledge’s journey has been one of perseverance, growth, and entrepreneurship. Inspired by early experiences and the foundational values of connection, collaboration, and self-belief instilled in him from a young age, Arthur was driven to forge his own path. At just 10 years old, the concept of entrepreneurship sparked a lifelong passion for owning his destiny, which led to the founding of his first business, U-Model Agency LLC, at the age of 19.
While juggling work, business, and university, Arthur made the bold decision to leave college and fully pursue his entrepreneurial dreams. This choice, though risky, sharpened his skills in decisiveness, discipline, and emotional resilience. With many exhilarating moments and valuable setbacks along the way, he gained a wealth of experience and wisdom that now shapes his work.
The inspiration for writing 11 Pillars of Confidence: Build and Lead an Empowered You
stemmed from witnessing so many people struggling with a lack of self-worth, confidence, and uncertainty in their purpose. I realized that these issues often disconnect people from their dreams and reality. Every person is an extension of their self-esteem and belief in what they can achieve.
Through this book, I aim to remind people that courage, persistence, self-belief, and creativity are essential to living a fulfilled life. The journey to confidence can be long and challenging, but with the right tools and mindset, anyone can overcome obstacles and step into their true potential.
This book is designed to support readers in their pursuit of confidence and success, helping them stay aligned with their intentions and embrace the future they deserve.
