Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1972, Larry C. Colbert's life changed suddenly and dramatically. He was diagnosed with retinitus pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disease, and learned he would soon be blind. But, as Larry's eyesight gradually faded, his insights deepened. Now he is a motivational speaker who travels the world sharing humorous stories about dealing with change, overcoming adversity, and promoting diversity. In this, his first book, Colbert shares the poignant story of his deep personal struggle with blindness, and the fear that kept him from embracing change. With remarkably frank dialog and powerful and humorous examples from the best of his keynote sppeches, Insights reveals Colbert's intimate 30-year process of coming to "see" self, and provides practical and meaningful help for learning to cope with constant change as well as managing the ideas, emotions, and attitudes that affect us all.
