Overview

"At the age of twenty-eight, a devastating car accident left Steve Judge fighting for his life, but he put his faith in the hands of amazing medical staff who worked tirelessly to save him. Many hours later, he came round only to be told that he might never walk again. Steve made the decision to take responsibility for the rest of his life by accepting ownership of the position he was in. He made himself accountable as he went through a traumatic rehabilitation process which included having to physically grow his own leg back. He struggled to regain his independence, experiencing immense lows and extreme pain during his recovery, but he wasn't prepared to accept the inevitable. Steve's vision and determination drove him to continue to set goals and work towards them and then he did what many would deem impossible. Not only did he go on to walk, he also ran, swam and cycled. By seizing opportunities he ultimately became a gold medal winning world champion paratriathlete representing Great Britain. But none of this was without heartbreak and hard work. This is his story of courage, determination and resilience in the face of adversity, and a great example of the power of the mind. Steve is now a motivational speaker who shares his story and strategies in his autobiography to help other people experience the happiness and fulfilment of achieving their true life goals. Steve's uplifting, poignant and yet humorous outlook will inspire you to not lean on your excuses and to live life with no regrets. ""Only looking back to learn, only looking forward to dream, this book inspires, entertains and educates all in equal measure. Steve shares with the reader why pressing play on today is so very important."" - Brad Burton, founder of 4Networking, business author and motivational speaker"

"""Steve Judge exudes such positivity, determination and inspiration that, once you've read this book, you'll have squared up to any fears and self-doubts. Where you go from there is entirely up to you but, warning you, just reading his book makes you want to run up a mountain! If you are looking for a book that will heal, stretch, inspire, and challenge you to persevere and overcome, this is your book."" - Alex Peace-Gadsby OBE, Chief Commissioner of Scouts for England and entrepreneur ""The first time I met Steve over a cup of tea I had no idea of his backstory or his injury and so the first time I heard him speak I was shocked. His story of fighting back from adversity is an inspiration to anyone who needs help to understand how to fight back from some of life's biggest obstacles."" - Lee Jackson, international speaker and past president of the Professional Speaking Association in the UK & Ireland ""What happened to Steve Judge could happen to anyone - a car crash, with serious consequences. But how he dealt with it is extraordinary and this story serves as a masterclass in finding resilience and raw ambition to overcome whatever life throws at you. As you might expect, the story speeds along - his physical recovery is utterly fascinating - and his dry humour helps to mop up the emotion of it all. Happily, at no point does Steve lurch into preaching 'at you' in the way that some motivational authors might. The lessons you learn from Steve's experience and impressive achievements are yours to find. The Steve Judge story will stay with you - you simply take what you need from it."" - Penny Haslam, award-winning speaker and former BBC Business presenter ""This book gives an open and real account of what can be achieved when you set the right goal. The tools that Steve shares are easily transferable in all of our lives, both personal and in business. Poignant, persuasive and powerful."" - Brad Sugars, global entrepreneur, international business speaker and author ""Captivating, motivating and emotional! Easy take-away which will help anyone focus on their business goals. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has a vision for what they want to succeed in."" - Claire Young, Apprentice finalist 2008, entrepreneur and business owner of School Speakers ""The book mirrors how Steve performs on the stage with a combination of fun, laughter and joy with the intense and serious undertones. The chapters are broken up into easily digestible chunks with the use of diary entries and the notes on his thoughts and feelings from when he was there in the moment. You can feel how much Steve has opened himself up with inserts like 'My White Tiger' which connects with me as once again he brings in the personal touch. Steve Judge is a person that you just don't forget. His story is inspirational."" - Martin Johnson, author of I Am Human: 30 Mistakes To Success ""Only looking back to learn, only looking forward to dream, this book inspires, entertains and educates all in equal measure. Steve shares with the reader why pressing play on today is so very important."" - Brad Burton, founder of 4Networking, business author and motivational speaker"
