I do not choose to be a common man. It is my right to be uncommon. I do not choose to be ordinary because I will do what others don’t to be extraordinary. I seek the opportunity to develop whatever talents God gave me. 
 
I do not wish to be dulled by having the state think it needs to look after me. I want to take the risk to thrive and dream, to fail and succeed.  
 
I refuse to barter my rights away or trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.  
 
I will never cower before any earthly master. It is in my blood to stand proud and noble to think and act as myself and face the world boldly. With Gods help I will prevail.
 
My Armor is harder than most.
It’s forged from things tested over a period of time.
It has scratches and dents and it is not fast.
 
The Wheelchair I ride is not beautiful or sleek,
It is a mix of colors and it choose me to be the rider.
 
In my chair and armor, I will never back down.
They can withstand more than most men can even on the darkest day.
 
I am far from a knight in shining armor or your prince on a white horse.
Those type of men could not stay my course.
 
I am your warrior and I have cuts and scars.
The armor I wear is not bright and has many battle scars.
The chair I ride looks rough and has dirt and wear on it.
 
One thing I know… My armor and chair is tried and true.
My chair and armor are forged to protect me and you.​

Truth. How many people are truthful with their self-assessment and self-reflection?
What intangibles do you bring?
 
The Best are the Best because they tell the truth.
 
Don’t complain Don’t think like a victim. That’s average. Average people talk normal. Average people talk problems Great people talk about solutions.
 
I truly believe that every single person has to go through something that absolutely destroys them so they can figure out who they really are.

You've likely heard that our greatest gifts are found in our greatest challenges. But when those challenges include outright failure, how do we find the strength to even face the failure, much less dig deep enough to unearth the gifts?
 
If you're still feeling the black hole of failure in your life, here are some ways I've learned to empower yourself to find the fruit.
 
1. Don’t jump to the lessons too quickly.
One chapter of your life is not the whole story. Immediately after my teaching experience, I knew what my lesson was. It was multiple variations of the same theme, all with the same conclusion: I am never teaching again. But that was pain talking, not wisdom. And that leads us to #2.
 
2. Allow yourself time, space, and kindness to face the pain.
This is easier said than done. For me, it wasn't pretty. Shame was my primary emotion, and hiding was my primary tactic. I simply wanted to pretend it never happened. But the fact that it happened at my alma mater 30 minutes from my town meant that every alumni event invitation and every road sign leading to campus were daggers in the heart. There was nothing to do but simply experience it.
 
3. Recognize humility as the fruit.
Looking back, I think the most valuable lesson I learned was humility. I'm not sure I had ever failed quite so visibly before, and it wasn't that I wasn't capable of failing. It was that I had not put myself in situations that allowed me to fail. Interesting. That's also when I began to notice others sharing their stories of failure and what they had learned from it, which taught me that failure isn't something to be ashamed of; it's simply human.
 
4. When looking for lessons, take the long view.
Putting your failures in the context of their proper story is so important. It took ten years for me to see the story in which this experience played a pivotal role. It wasn't teaching per se that was the issue; it was the way I was making decisions in my life. I'm deep in the process of tracing the threads of that story as we speak, and weaving it into a new story of balance, joy, relationships, creativity, healing, and service. Now that I've learned to recognize my own yes and my own no, who knows? Teaching may be part of this future story.
 
Fortunately, failure doesn’t have to last forever. If you give it space, kindness, and the right care, fruit comes in its own time. And when it does, you’ll have a valuable gift to offer others—and transform your failure into gold.
You don’t have to fail, there is an option. That option is to learn. I teach a course about ‘’Sometimes you Win, Sometimes you Learn’’ It is more than a mindset it is a way of life. You see we learn more from losing than you do winning or succeeding. That being said you should never stop trying and you should always be learning. As long as you are learning and moving forward you are not losing.

​As I’ve reflected on the emotions and conversations that have followed this incident (such as trying to reassure my teenage daughter that everything would be okay when social media messages started circulating threatening other nearby schools...including hers) one thing keeps standing out: the power of community. When tragedy strikes, it’s our community that holds us up, offers support, and helps us find a way through. In times like these, coming together isn’t just important—it’s essential.
 
Support When It’s Needed Most
In the immediate aftermath of events like this, shock and fear are often overwhelming. That’s when the strength of a community really shines. Whether it's offering a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, or just being there to listen, the support we give each other during hard times is invaluable. The simple act of showing up—whether physically or emotionally—can make all the difference. 
 
Resilience Through Unity
When we face unimaginable challenges, it’s our unity that helps us rise above. While we may not be able to change the events that happen around us, we can choose how we respond. Coming together as a community, leaning on each other for strength, is what makes us resilient. It’s in these moments that we truly “KNOW our people” and find the strength to move forward, even when it seems impossible. The citizens of Winder, Georgia did that this past week...in a big way.
 
A Reminder to Be Present
In times of crisis, we’re reminded how precious and fleeting life is. The little things we often take for granted—a conversation with a loved one, a moment of laughter with friends—become so much more significant. As we continue to process what happened at Apalachee High School, let’s also take time to be fully present with the people around us. Show up for your family, your friends, and your community, not just in the tough times, but always.
 
Healing Together
Healing after a tragedy isn’t something we do alone. It happens through conversations, shared experiences, and the support of those around us. The road to healing is long and difficult, but when we come together as a community, we share the load. By lifting each other up, we find strength we didn’t know we had. We ALL have something we are healing from, so remember to be kind always.
 
The Power of Prayer and Faith
In times like these, the power of prayer and faith becomes even more evident. For many of us, leaning on our faith gives us the comfort and strength to navigate difficult times. Prayer is a way to connect with something bigger than ourselves, offering peace when the world feels chaotic. It’s also a way to support each other—praying for healing, protection, and hope as we move forward together. Faith reminds us that even in the darkest moments, we are not alone. There is always a light, and through faith, we find the strength to keep moving forward.
 
Let’s hold our loved ones a little closer and continue to show up for each other. In moments of pain and heartache, it’s our community, our faith, and our prayers that provide the love and strength we need to keep going. We’re in this together, and together, we will heal. 
 
Always in your corner,

Who didn’t feel invincible to start a life of discovery and adventure at the age of seventeen? A simple football game with my friends the day after Christmas would leave me a C5/6 quadriplegic. The loss was immediate and devastating: paralysis from my neck down to my toes and all the physical, social and emotional upheaval that came with it. For a long while, the struggle was real.
​
Like the amazing adaptations we see in nature, a tree growing out of a bolder or a flower growing out of the cement parking lot, nature finds a way to survive and thrive. Like nature we must find a way to not just survive but to also thrive. Being able to adapt is one of the qualities that is needed to survive and thrive.

I know what most readers will want to hear: the grisly details, the trauma, the triumph, and the answer to how I can possibly deal with this terrible outcome on a daily basis. But here’s the thing: the outcome of my spinal cord injury is no longer terrible. I didn’t overcome, I adapted. 

The story of that football game is something I choose not to focus on or re-live and after 40 years of living with paralysis, I feel privileged. My journey has been stunningly transformative. The world is still my oyster and I have already lived as an able-bodied person, and now as a disabled person, increasing my personal repertoire of what it means to be human. 

You know what is worse than not walking? Not living, not thriving. I live in a world where there is a deeply entrenched social stigma where bodies that don’t fit a cultural “norm” are marginalized. They need to be fixed, cured, or eradicated. It is often a society where disability is a dirty word and a wheelchair is a symbol of confinement, not freedom. 

As I considered being a successful businessman, coach, father and husband, believe it or not, it’s a world where being a quadriplegic will cause others to question your worth. I have seen disabled individuals shunned as selfish and doubted for having children, or rejected when applying for adoption.

In the face of these challenges that have nothing to do with being disabled, and everything to do with social and environmental barriers, what has strengthened my perspective has been the consideration of other people’s lives, particularly those who were born with a disability and who are also at ease and in harmony with their body and identity. 
Like in nature the weather and changing of the seasons creates barriers for all things to thrive. Sometimes there is to much sun and it dries things out. Sometimes there is to much rain or snow. No matter what conditions are thrown at us we need to continue to adapt even though you don’t have all the resources you need.  Life does not promise us or give us all the resources we need. 
It is easier to survive and thrive when you have all the resources you need. The grass is always green when it gets a little rain. Adapting to the ever changing situations that life throws at us requires Resourcefulness. Being resourceful is one of the nest qualities you can learn and have. It is a quality you will rely on more than you can imagine and it will serve you well as you learn to navigate the peaks and valleys that life brings to us.   

Those who wear their wheelchairs, white canes, prosthetic limbs, and any kind of visible or invisible scars, with acceptance and pride despite all the outside factors that tell them to be ashamed. Those who know that their personhood and value is never in question, despite having to fight for their health, equality, inclusion, and access.

I wrote a book called The Quadfather. It is a tough love, unapologetic answer to all the excuses that keep people from thriving. The Quadfather is dedicated to strengthening ones mind, creating grit and eradicating toxicity. My personal health challenges are a catalyst to seek mental, emotional and spiritual wellness for everybody.

​Now is the time to deliver on that right. For everyone.
 
Let me begin by saying getting outdoors is crucial to your health and not everyone has the same opportunity or access to the great outdoors.
 
We are not outside for 4-6 hours everyday.  We aim for 4-6 hours outside at least three to four times a week (a little more in the nicer months and a little less in the worse ones).  
 
It is a far cry from typical child activities these days, most of which last no longer than an hour. Children who are allowed this freedom of time outside get lost in nature.  They get lost in their imaginations and they get lost in wonder.  And then they rapidly develop.  There are many factors why but one reason is due to the rich sensory environment that nature always provides.
 
Our 1000 Hours Outside Goal is loosely based on the writings of Charlotte Mason but we have adapted to make room for daily life.   Interestingly, her findings about what is healthy for development of the whole child are consistently being backed by research over 100 years later.  
 
In Balanced and Barefoot: How Unrestricted Outdoor Play Makes for Strong, Confident and Capable Children, kids of all ages should get at least three hours of free play outdoors a day.”  I’m all for balance.  Understandably, family life is a tricky juggle.  But no matter the situation we are in we owe it to our children to try our best to give them baseline the components they need for higher-level development.  
 
Maybe 4-6 hours a day outside isn’t doable but the current statistics say that the average child only gets 4-7 minutes of outdoor free play every day.  This means that the average child is probably outside for 30 minutes or so a few times a week.  
 
When kids are given time to be outside their bodies instinctively seek out the sensory input they need to grow and develop.  
 
Time spent outdoors is also critical for adults as well as people with disabilities. If children can consume media through screens 1200 hours a year on average than the time is there and at least some of it can and should be shifted towards a more productive and healthy outcome. 
 
As a man confined to a wheelchair I find that being outdoors is a healing soothing place to relax. Outdoors is a great place to open your creative thinking. That being said

GRIT Freedom Chair helps nature lovers with disabilities explore forest preserve.
The Will County’s Forest Preserve’s Nature Center is the first in the nation to be accredited by the National Inclusion Project. 
 
This is a big win for the disability community. The GRIT Freedom Chair at four Rivers Environmental Educational Center in Channahon helps those with disabilities better explore the trails and outdoors. The GRIT Freedom Chair is available for public use at no cost.

People with disabilities receive fewer opportunities for physical exercise, outdoor activities, and recreation than do other Americans. The need to Creating opportunities for families and friends of the disabled community is critical. Recreation and outdoor activity provide a means to physical, mental, and emotional health and well-being for individuals with disabilities. 
 
Recreation can reduce pain, depression, stress, and anxiety; increase strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance; improve cardiovascular functioning; improve self-esteem, social skills, promote independence; and improve mental alertness, and problem solving.[1] Aerobic activity boosts immune system activity, reduces pain and inflammation, and decreases the incidence and impact of chronic diseases, insulin resistance, cancer, and stroke.[2]
 
Spending over 40 years in a manual wheelchair has taught me that getting outdoors is critical to my mental, physical and spiritual health. In addition, spending time outdoors has been proven to have important mental and physical health benefits for all people, including significant improvements in self-esteem, reductions in depression and anxiety, decreased stress, increased creativity, and a sense of freedom and connection to the community.[3]
 
We as a community have so many opportunities to make life more accessible for everyone. It is the right thing to do and it is necessary to help people thrive.

Human beings need the blue just as much as the green 
There is a clear correlation between close proximity to a body of water and better psychological and overall health outcomes, said Michael Depledge, chair of Environment and Human Health at the University of Exeter Medical School.
Spending time near the water, “promotes physical activity and general fitness,” reducing the incidence of diabetes and other diseases associated with obesity. But it also slows down our heart rate and reduces stress hormones, boosting our mental health.
This is much like grounding. I try to spend as much time as I can outdoors. Being confined to wheelchair I find being outdoors or near water has an amazing Zen like affect on my entire body. My mind, body, emotions and soul.
The World Health Organization, for one, expects depression to become the world’s largest contributor to disease by 2030.
One line of research, in particular, found that people consistently show a strong preference for pictures of natural environments even when compared to attractive urban landscapes. While the rivers, lakes and the sea often appear in the visual stimuli associated with green spaces, water rarely appeared in pictures of cities and other man-made environments.
A study including pictures of things like fountains, canals and coastal cities, they found that respondents consistently reacted better to pictures with water.
In fact, the more water in the picture, the more positive the reaction was likely to be. Although people still expressed a preference for natural over urban settings with water, it was clear that aquatic features mattered a great deal.
Another study used data from a government-run annual health survey to see if they could spot a link between health and proximity to water.
Sure enough, coastal residents consistently reported feeling healthier than others living further away from the sea.
Recreation and outdoor activity provide a means to physical, mental, and emotional health and well-being for individuals with disabilities. 
 
Recreation can reduce pain, depression, stress, and anxiety; increase strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance; improve cardiovascular functioning; improve self-esteem, social skills, promote independence; and improve mental alertness, and problem solving.[4]
 
Aerobic activity boosts immune system activity, reduces pain and inflammation, and decreases the incidence and impact of chronic diseases, insulin resistance, cancer, and stroke.[5] The increased muscle tissue and bone strength resulting from physical activity makes daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and transferring easier to perform.[6]

​The relentless pace and uncertainty of business today is taking a serious toll on all of us. Leaders might strive to be purpose-driven, impactful and innovative, but they are often hijacked by constant crisis management and the pressure to give everyone a voice. 
 
As if that’s not enough, add in the exhaustion of trying to cover the workload of missing colleagues—those infected by Covid and those who left as part of the Great Resignation. 
 
The truth is, many leaders are being weighed down by the cumulative impact of two years in this chaotic environment with its never-ending pivots. And yet, now they are also being asked to actively protect the mental health of their employees and prioritize their well-being. Besides feeling ill-equipped to take on that responsibility, leaders may also be grappling with their own stress. 
 
What’s the solution? 
I don’t pretend to have all the answers and I’m not a mental health professional, but I’d like to do my part in helping leaders navigate these trying times. 
 
In aa sense I have to be a mental health professional for my family and myself. Below you’ll find some tips that may be helpful for those who are working to protect their own mental health, as well as that of their team members. 
 
For Leaders to Protect Themselves and for any of us to protect ourselves.
Let go of unrealistic expectations.
Perfection isn’t the goal right now, so consciously let yourself off the hook. Right now it’s about progress. Do you really need to produce a 10-page report, or could you share the data in a quick email? Yes, you still have non-negotiable deliverables and deadlines, but ask yourself if there are any unnecessary tasks you could stop doing to take better care of yourself. You may have more control over your calendar than you think. 
 
Stay connected.
During times of chaos, you may feel like you are solely responsible for helping everyone else on your team hold it together. That’s a whole lot of pressure! You need and deserve support too, so don’t try to go it alone. Talk about the unique challenges you are facing with a trusted advisor or close colleagues. You might even consider Mentors, coaches or “reciprocity circles”—groups of peers who meet monthly to discuss their struggles and brainstorm on solutions. And if you need help, don’t hesitate to talk with a professional,  mentor or coach. 
 
Compartmentalize your “worry time.” 
Some people find it cathartic to think through the worst-case scenario and create a detailed contingency plan. If you are one of those people, I get it my father was this way.
 
But also spend some time developing a plan for the most probable outcome. Set aside a day and time when you can give that kind of planning your full attention. Once you get it finished, stop rehashing it in your mind. Focus all of your energy on getting positive results. And if that doesn’t work out, you’ll know exactly what to do.
 
For Leaders to Support Their Team Members
 
Know your company’s mental health benefits and resources. 
Educate yourself on what type of support you and your company offers and how to access those benefits. When you or one of your employees is experiencing mental health issues, they may not have the bandwidth to wade through the system and figure it out. You can encourage them to get the help they need by providing a clear roadmap. 
 
Model what it means to protect your mental health. 
Your attitudes and actions can help to destigmatize mental health concerns. Lets be honest we all like to think we can mentally handle any situation or set of problematic circumstance. 
 
Let your team know what steps you are taking to protect your own mental health and encourage them to do the same. Perhaps you mention that you’ve been feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, take a deep breath and remember this is just temporary. Plan on taking a day of vacation to spend with your family in the near future. 
 
Or maybe you don’t schedule meetings after 5:00 because you want to maintain a healthy work/life balance. When you set that example, you are giving your team members “permission” to prioritize their own mental health and make smart choices to protect it. 
 
Keep the lines of communication open.
Now, more than ever before, it’s critical to create an open line of dialogue with your family, spouse or team members—about their work, their well-being, and their challenges. (Hint: Try to listen more than you talk.) You might consider more frequent one-on-one check-ins, daily huddles, or virtual “open office hours.” With that said, be intentional about your communication. 
 
Don’t bombard them with emails and meetings. In fact, you might even institute an occasional “no meetings day” so employees can catch up on work and catch their breath. 
Modify your expectations when appropriate. 
I know. Sometimes this isn’t an option But there may be instances when you can revisit workloads and performance expectations to help employees reduce their stress. If they are already working long hours and skipping lunch, they probably won’t be thrilled if you also sign them up for resiliency training. 
 
That’s just something else they have to juggle. Instead, explore ways to help them reduce unnecessary tasks and eliminate any redundancies.
 
Help employees find meaning in their work.
When people have clear goals and are genuinely connected to their purpose, they experience less stress. Make sure you and your employees have goals and even ‘mico’’ goals so you have an opportunity to celebrate the little wins. Find out what motivates your employees. 
 
Have conversations with them about their career aspirations. What types of development or experiences would better prepare them to meet their goals?  You need to take an intentional and an active role in supporting yourself too. You can help to elevate their outlook, their confidence, and their mental health. 
 
The bottom line here? Mental health or as I like to call it ‘’Mental Strength’’ really matters. For individuals, companies, entrepreneurs for leaders, and for employees. 
 
It’s impossible to know what 2025 is going to throw at us. Its impossible to know what may happen next week. If this year is anything like its two predecessors, we all need to buckle up for a bumpy ride. But if we can take deliberate steps to prioritize Mental Strength as part of our objectives, we can give ourselves, our families and our team members a distinct advantage as they face a continuing environment of adversity and uncertainty. 
 
The broader impact of those actions can be significant for ourself and our companies. When healthy, mentally strong minds pull together to achieve big goals, the odds of success are exponentially higher.
