Product Description
From Amazon
We seldom realize the degree to which our success depends on how we react to failure. Roger Crawford, a speaker and business consultant who says the physical "inconveniences" he's lived with since birth have taught him to be flexible, argues that thinking resiliently is even more important than thinking positively in getting what we want out of life. While positive thinkers might tell themselves, "I feel happy," even when they don't, a resilient thinker would say, "Right now I feel lousy, but I have it in my power to be happy." Because that's not an attitude that comes naturally to many people, he offers a variety of tips on reframing our internal dialogue. While some of Crawford's advice will sound familiar to readers of achievement-oriented books, those who need a push to continue in the face of adversity will find it in How High Can You Bounce?

From Library Journal
Physically challenged at birth and told that he would never walk, Crawford went on to become a tennis champion and Olympic torch bearer. Now he lectures worldwide on resiliency in the face of crisis.

Incredibly Inspiring!,
By A Customer
This review is from: How High Can You Bounce? (Audio Cassette)
A book to read over and over. When I am feeling like my self esteem is gone or I am going through a difficult time, I pick up this book and read a chapter or two and get re-charged again. It makes you re-examine all the dreams you ever had and didn't act upon because you thought you weren't talented enough or someone else had discouraged you. After reading this book you will believe "I can really make this happen".

A Norman Vincent Peale for the '90s,
By A Customer
This review is from: How High Can You Bounce?: Turn Setbacks into Comebacks (Hardcover)
Crawford brings a refreshing new "bounce" to positive thinking, taking it a step further (higher?) by remodeling it as "resilient" thinking. Excellent. Inspiring. A keeper!
