Publisher's Summary

It's not always easy to embrace life, to get up and go, to follow your dreams and make things happen, but after losing his leg to cancer as a teenager, that’s exactly what Marc Woods did - and went on to become a Paralympic Gold medallist. The determination and dedication that Marc showed to achieve that feat is shared with us in this powerful book.

His inspiring story is the motivation we all need to start being the best we can be.

  • Set specific, measurable and achievable goals.
  • Learn to forge supportive teams and communicate with those around you.
  • Find role models and follow their example.
  • Learn to ignore other people's prejudices and not let them hold you back.
  • Deal with change - both change that you chose and change that you don't.
  • Manage stress both at home and at work.
