In a split second, Mark Berridge's life came crashing down. His bicycle understeered through a corner, the impact wrenching him over the handlebars and catapulting him headfirst into a stormwater drain. A large piece of dislodged vertebra compressed his spinal cord, causing devastating nerve damage. Mark spent more than seven weeks in hospital and nine months in intensive rehabilitation. His sustained effort to regain mobility became an integral part of his new identity.
In his powerful new book, A Fraction Stronger, Mark shares his inspiring true story of how an average person achieved an exceptional outcome after a life-changing accident. He shares practical lessons and insights that we can all apply to our own challenges, to help guide us through life's impossible moments. These small actions, combined with determination to seek out possibility in the darkness, can light your way forward.
This is not a story about the occurrence of a miracle. It's about an everyday person who visualised an exceptional outcome. It's about reframing your demons into sources of motivation and fighting for your dream when it starts to fade. We all have obstacles thrown at us, but it's how you choose to handle them that counts. Mark found the power within himself to become stronger every day and no matter what your circumstances, you can too.
