Don't Lean On Your Excuses

At the age of twenty-eight, a devastating car accident left Steve Judge fighting for his life, but he put his faith in the hands of amazing medical staff who worked tirelessly to save him. Many hours later, he came round only to be told that he might never walk again.

Steve made the decision to take responsibility for the rest of his life by accepting ownership of the position he was in. He made himself accountable as he went through a traumatic rehabilitation process which included having to physically grow his own leg back. He struggled to regain his independence, experiencing immense lows and extreme pain during his recovery, but he wasn’t prepared to accept the inevitable.

Steve’s vision and determination drove him to continue to set goals and work towards them and then he did what many would deem impossible. Not only did he go on to walk, he also ran, swam and cycled. By seizing opportunities he ultimately became a gold medal winning world champion paratriathlete representing Great Britain. But none of this was without heartbreak and hard work. This is his story of courage, determination and resilience in the face of adversity, and a great example of the power of the mind. 

Steve is now a motivational speaker who shares his story and strategies in his autobiography to help other people experience the happiness and fulfilment of achieving their true life goals. Steve’s uplifting, poignant and yet humorous outlook will inspire you to not lean on your excuses and to live life with no regrets.
