Do you struggle with facing your fears, keeping your focus, helping others, maintaining your integrity, being or following a leader, or pursuing opportunities? These are the areas in life author Jim Leligdon defines as perceived external limitations triggered by the outside world. Through his own real life experiences and the perspectives they helped create, Jim explores these perceived external limitations. Each anecdote is followed by a series of questions to help you reflect on and examine your own life experiences, personal feelings, perspectives, and goals for success.
About the author
Born with congenital cataracts in both eyes, Jim Leligdon could only distinguish between light and shadows. At 18 months old, he had the first of six surgeries to restore some of his sight. Being legally blind hasn't slowed him down at all. When he's not training or speaking, Jim enjoys spending time with family and friends. He and his wife Barb currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. They have two grown children, Courtney and Nick.
In his 27 years as a corporate trainer, Jim has facilitated sessions throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. His experiences traveling around the globe have taught him many things about his own physical challenges while enhancing his "Can do" attitude. As a motivational speaker, he shares life experiences and answers audience questions along the way. Some of his favorite audiences include children or adults with special needs, church groups, and corporate teams. He hopes to motivate and inspire individuals who just need a push in a positive direction regardless of their circumstances. Jim believes, "We each have some type of perceived limitation. Once we examine and understand it, we can successfully navigate beyond it."
