Still Falling

Description

Stories and Insights from Life’s Slips, Spills and Stumbles

Learning to walk includes learning to fall! “Still Falling” is Rob Oliver’s follow-up to his best-selling autobiography “Still Walking”. It serves as a reminder that a positive outlook, a good attitude and a determined spirit will not prevent you from tipping your wheelchair over, multiple times! In “Still Falling”, Rob shares 20 true life stories with a lesson learned from each of them. While the stories are personal, the lessons are broadly applicable. For example:

• What can a wheelchair crash teach about perspective? (pg 43)
• How does waking up in the middle of the night relate to life goals? (pg 19)
• Why do important lessons come when we least expect them? (pg 71)
• How does an overturned wheelchair relate to self-evaluation? (pg 87)

Each chapter also contains a video link which further explores the concept. Rob strives to give big picture understanding of the “Human Condition” which we all live daily. “Still Falling” has a message bigger about more than the obstacles Rob faces as a person with a disability. It’s about the fact that we all face limitations and obstacles. Failure is one of the most powerful learning tools we have. Life is a journey. The longer we travel, the more slips and falls we will have. In “Still Falling”, Rob Oliver reminds us that falling allows us to learn, rise and move forward.
