We all grow and change. Sometimes, it is intentional. Sometimes, it’s not. Life happens. I know it did in my world.

While training for a marathon, I was badly injured. That injury sent me on a long recovery journey. One I had not planned on, expected, or was prepared to take.

Suddenly, I found myself having to learn to walk, talk, think, and many other things all over again in life – at the age of 40.

Life certainly happened – at no fault of my own. Have you ever been there? Have you ever had something happen outside your control? Sometimes things outside our control are good, other times they are not. Whether it is a big new opportunity that has you stopped or a challenge that you face, we have the ability to come out on top. How do I know that? I am here writing this to you right now after being told over and over I would never function beyond that of a young child again in life.

And that is why I wrote this book. You see, knowing how others do things and adapting them to your life is the fastest way to go from point a to point b. I used the lessons in this book to reclaim my life, take bigger steps, get huge positions, start my own company, and even become a #1 best-selling author – following a traumatic brain injury when some of the best physicians in the world had limited expectation of my healing.  

After my accident, I saw so many people stuck, unwilling or unable to take the next step in their life. It was everywhere around me. I knew how to move forward. I had taught thousands of executives and leaders how to do that in their businesses. But the steps I taught were too complex for my functioning level, I needed simple. So, I simplified the steps greatly and was able to move forward. Before my accident, I never understood fully how much we, as adult, LOVE to complicate things! Simplicity is our friend. And that is why I am sharing the lessons in this book in their simplistic form with the world. They allow us to take action and action is key.

What else is a universal constant with humans? I believe the biggest challenge we face in life to become all that we have the possibility of becoming. Become unstoppable at becoming what’s possible.
