Description
From intellectual disabilities, amputations, disease, and low expectations, there are a host of legitimate reasons not to succeed. So much is poised to separate us from who and what we say we are. Virtuous wife, intuitive dad, trendsetting employer, inspiring artist - or whatever you've purposed to apprehend; it's all subject to elude you. Setting and reaching goals is already a challenging process, but add a disability to the equation. If life has seemingly snatched some of your physical attributes, don't let it rob you of your ability to cast vision. In this book, Dr. John McConnell discusses being legally blind - and how to turn losses into wins concerning the vision for your life. You don't have to settle for going part of the way. You can STILL go all the way!

Person
Growing up with five siblings, I learned the importance of sharing. We shared everything - food, clothes, shoes, money, cars, and information. The team captains (mom, dad, and oldest sister) have passed on, but the five of us who remain yet have each other. I've come to realize that because of my family community, I've never been alone. There are so many people trekking this life alone, without the feeling of connectivity. To this day, when my siblings choose to share information with me, I have no doubt it's from a sincere place of love and compassion. They want me to succeed! So, I'm "throwing my hat in the ring'. Instead of packing up my classroom and vanishing silently into retirement, I've decided to pay it forward. As you turn the pages, I hope a kindred spirit connection occurs, and you adopt me as an honorary sibling.Born and raised in Kansas City Kansas, John David McConnell received his Bachelor of Science degree at Saint Mary College in Leavenworth, Kansas.
