I helped my son Gabe write this book so it seems strange to rate it, but I believe it will warm your heart and help you live CLEAR.
Gabe's life has changed mine. Born with three-inch arms and crooked legs and a 45% hearing loss, Gabe started with an uncertain future. Early on, he chose to believe there was a good plan and purpose for his life.
Now, twenty-three years later, he is on the ride of his life encouraging thousands of people, through his book and his public speaking events, to live with courage while enduring their struggles. He invites you to be a leader with a positive attitude and respect for self and others.
Young and old, this book will touch your heart.
