The Author,
ROBBY DIXON

Robby Dixon spent nearly eleven years studying the intricacies of the Federal Prison System, uncovering the distinction between the true criminal element and the innocent victims of negative influences, who might otherwise have made better choices if they knew better how to control their own thought processes. As a skilled author and lecturer, Dixon participates in a variety of forums, including workshops, seminars and youth conferences throughout the United States. These special activities were designed to enlighten adults and children about the power of positive thinking, and its influence upon choice and behavior.

Devoted husband and father of one child, Texan Robby Dixon is not only an accomplished researcher, but also a concerned parent dedicated to unearthing and changing the cyclical negative behavior by our youth by changing their value systems (what they value) and how they think.

Born in the month of June, I was the eldest son of six children. I was reared in a suburban community known as Curtis Park in Sacramento, California. It was a picturesque area complete with its own amusement park, zoo and golf course. I grew up in the epitome of a Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood. I knew of no racism, crime or abuse — everything couldn’t have been more perfect, until we moved.

At age thirteen I was uprooted and moved to Texas, and then back to California, but this time in a different kind of neighborhood. My new home was divergent with ethnicities, values and belief systems, and naiveté would prove not be my friend as I ultimately became influenced by the “cool” kids and cultivated a desire for acceptance.

Unknowingly, I lost control over my thought process, negative societal factors began to heavily influence how I thought. I began to entertain thoughts and ideas that were contrary to what I’d known up to this point in my life. Yet, having no reinforcement mechanisms in place to keep me anchored to my upbringing, I set out adrift, and consequently my life was changed forever.
