From being paralysed at the age of 40 to becoming a world champion and Paralympic Gold Medalist just 3 years later, Mark Colbourne talks us through having to start over, gaining clarity amidst constant confusion and how to take that clarity and reach heights that would’ve been deemed impossible. How to take a setback and turn it into glory.
We ask the following questions:
1.If I pick the wrong subjects, or pursue a different career it feels like the end of the world. What do I do?
2. How do we as students seek that clarity?
3. Just gaining clarity doesn’t make you a champion, so how did you become a champion? Once I gain clarity, how can I become the best in that field?
4. When you’re feeling low, you feel like everything is impossible. What can I do when I’m feeling low?
And this World Champion went on to face the biggest challenge of his life when he found out that something had happened to his father. So to find out what he did next and HOW that changed his mindset forever, stay tuned for pt.2 coming out soon!
