But by the age of thirty, he had become a drug addict, a thief, and&mdash;after a DEA drug bust&mdash;a convicted drug dealer sentenced to five years in prison, with another five years added while he was incarcerated. <br><br> Through supreme willpower, a belief in himself, and a steely desire to alter his life&rsquo;s path, Douglas began to reverse his trajectory, to understand and deal with the psychological turmoil that tormented him for years, and to prepare for what would be a profoundly challenging but successful reentry into society at large.
