How do you cope with adversity? Is there a better way than resignedly accepting it? Is there a way to cure the seemingly incurable? Is there a way to transform the truly incurable into an advantage? Yes, there is a way! There is a way for you to overcome the adversity in your life—then break your cane! In Break Your Cane: Transforming Life’s Worst Challenges to Overcome Adversity, author Bob West details how difficult circumstances early in life were his best education. To survive early adversity, and even thrive because of it, he developed a philosophy of choosing a harder path for personal excellence and greater service. This harder path included using the taunts and ridicule from others to his advantage, turning disadvantages into advantages, and persisting when all seemed hopeless. Early difficulties prepared him for one of the biggest battles of his life—a 30-year struggle with several different chronic illnesses. Instead of giving up, West chose instead a harder path of researching medications, numerous types of diets, and many other remedies, until he found a cure for his incurable rheumatoid arthritis and other illnesses from which he suffered. He chose a harder path, found a cure, and now he shares his story with you. Inside, you’ll find not only his story, but examples from others who’ve chosen to take the harder path to becoming a better person and to serve others. Instead of simply giving up, they’ve persevered, becoming top athletes, affliction survivors, and leaders in history. They’ve been cured, made fascinating discoveries in science, and helped to create a better world around them. Let West and these examples of outstanding individuals inspire you to overcome your next challenge, whether it be medical, personal, educational, or goal-oriented. Choose the harder path to overcome adversity. Choose to overcome it for your own personal excellence and greater service.
