"One of the most accomplished, physically challenged athletes in

to me." -Dr. Wayne Dyer How do you become an award-winning,
Division 1 college athlete despite a disability affecting all four
limbs? The answer has inspired countless people throughout the
world. Roger Crawford's incredible life illuminates the truth that
while challenges are inevitable, defeat is optional. When most
people would have given up hope, Crawford found a way to work
around his physical challenges to eventually become a tennis
champion, innovating a way to hold onto a racket with just one
finger on his right hand and two fingers on his left. His story
demonstrates the power of an "I can" attitude inspiring readers to
reach past their own difficulties and live up to their true
potential. Challenges are Inevitable provides both the inspiration
and motivation needed to break through self-imposed obstacles and
limitations that often hold us back from fulfilling our purpose.

encouraged to unleash their potential, allowing them to redefine
what is truly possible. As they apply this new mindset, they will
learn to achieve exceptional results in their own life! Roger has
become one of the most in-demand motivational speakers today,
equipping others to follow his lead in breaking down barriers. He
is dedicated to helping organizations conquer change, increase
performance and produce exceptional results. Roger's presentations
go beyond a feel-good message, teaching actionable ideas that
impact lives forever. This book is no different. Expect to walk
away feeling emboldened and inspired that nothing can standing the
way of accomplishing your wildest dreams, and that challenges are
meant to be overcome.
What do all remarkable people and organizations have in common?
They embrace the power of "possibility thinking." The most
successful people and organizations think again or think
differently from those less successful. By developing the habit of
possibility thinking, you are mentally prepared to tackle your next
challenge and optimize your next opportunity. Everyone encounters
circumstances that are uncontrollable and unchangeable, but we can
learn to control and change our mindset. When you put the skills of
possibility thinking into practice, your productivity increases,
performance is enhanced and new possibilities emerge.
Roger was born in 1948 and adopted at birth. He was brought up in
the north-west London suburbs and enjoyed a carefree childhood in a
world totally different to that of today. Sent to a private Grammar
School because his socialist parents were so concerned at his lack
of academic ability, he was the only pupil in the history of the
School to become a Farm apprentice. Embracing the free-thinking of
the late sixties and early seventies, and concerned that many city
children did not know anything of rural life, he founded a
charitable society which gave country holidays for free to
disadvantaged city children and for a time lived a bohemian type of
life in a converted coach. He also founded and ran a successful
Youth Club and ran Gardening classes for the London Borough of
Harrow. After happily living with a lady twenty years older than
himself for thirteen years he then fell in love with and had a
daughter by a married lady his own age. His battle to be a part of
his daughter's life is vividly recorded in his story, and the
prejudice and sheer inhumanity of the Family Court system is
described in detail. Protests on roofs followed, plus standing for
election in Oxford East in 2010. Roger has also battled the
Planning system to enable him to stay on his smallholding in
Bedfordshire. This is an entertaining journey through his life with
many laugh-out-loud moments as well as the pathos surrounding the
loss of his only child. Roger has been married for twenty years to
Rosa and lives and works on his smallholding as well as driving a
local school bus. He still works for parents and children's rights
and is a vocal campaigner against child abuse in all its forms.
There has been concern for more than a decade that pupils in
English schools do not have sufficient knowledge, skills and
understanding of Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
This research investigates approaches to the organisation of the
ICT curriculum, teaching and learning, management, staffing and
resources that are associated with high levels of ICT capability
among 14-16 year olds in four secondary schools, each of which
organised the delivery of the ICT curriculum in different ways. The
more and less successful schools are characterised, and there is
discussion of the issues arising and those areas requiring further
research.
