"""One of the most accomplished, physically challenged athletes in the world."" -Sports Illustrated

""Roger Crawford is an inspiration 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. Readers will discover new ways of thinking and be empowered and 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."
