How to Live Every Day with Purpose and Passion.
At the age of 21 Art Berg broke his neck in a serious car accident. A quadriplegic, he was told he would never walk again, or work, or live independently. He was encouraged to believe his life was over.
Since then however, he has run two multimillion-dollar corporations and been inducted into the Speakers Hall of Fame, addressed hundreds of companies and organisations, travelling over 200,000 miles each year to do so. In 1993 he set a world record for being the first quadriplegic of his level to race in a 325-mile ultra-marathon. He also defied the doctors by marrying and becoming the father of two children.
This is Art's extraordinary story of his perseverance against the odds and the ways of thinking that enabled him to achieve all he has. Through his own inspiring journey back to a mobile, satisfying, passion-filled life, Berg has learned many important lessons that will help and motivate anyone frozen by fear or frustration, including:
- Courageous people are not unafraid
- The problem isn't what you can't do, it's what you won't do
- Don't let a bad day turn into a bad life
- Remember, some miracles take time!
