Rob Or Be Robbed
This journey we call life will rob you of many things including your happiness, peace, joy, and safety. We lose in life if we sit back and let life take these things from us. Winning in life happens when we decide we want to rob life of its ability to take those things that are important to us.

I Can Make Myself Cry
I can make myself cry at almost anytime I choose to. All I have to do is take myself to a place where I bring back feelings of hurt or sadness from experiences that I have had in the past. Every experience has different senses and emotions that are woven into them. When we have experienced negative things in the past, it can be easy to bring ourselves back to those negative feelings by what we chose to surround ourselves by. If we want to change how we feel and create a more positive space, we can choose to surround ourselves with those things that will build that more positive space.

"Yeah, But He Is In A Wheelchair"
We often hear labels, or statements, or judgements from others about who we are. If we allow it, those labels can blur our vision of ourselves and who we can be and keep us in a place of losing.

Sitting In The Rain
Negative feelings that become attached to things we enjoy and love can often lead us to missing out on things that we love and enjoy as we try and hide from negative feelings. What we are willing to miss out on is up to us. We have the power and get to decide whether we will change our perspective and actions to take back those things that we love and enjoy.
Customer Reviews
Thank you, Chris
Chris, I am a former patient of yours, and was of course, shocked and saddened when I first heard about your accident several years back. I took immediate interest when I saw that you had a podcast out, and I listened to it, honestly, not knowing what to expect. While you’ve titled it, the “Get Out of Your Wheelchair“ podcast, I find that your lessons apply to anyone and everyone that wants to listen. no wheelchair necessary. You have great words, great insight, and I really appreciate your transparency and emotion. Thank you for making the time to do this.
