Mindset – Reframing Challenges as Opportunities for Growth

When life throws us a curveball it can rock us to the core. We ask ourselves, “Why me?” But the question can unfortunately be unanswerable. The future can look daunting, uncertain, and even overwhelming. So, what do we do? And where do we start? In this session we will hear Billy’s story. At 18, he fell headfirst from a window to concrete breaking his neck and lower back. The fall caused a spinal cord injury and left him paralyzed from the chest down affecting all four of his limbs. His mind went to a negative place. But with the support from many, he chose to change his mindset. Instead of focusing on what he had lost, he was able to embrace what he still had, which was life. A life worth living and a new opportunity to add value and make each day count.
