Don’t be swayed from your desires…

Throughout history all highly successful people
Held fast to their belief and desire
It is with definiteness of purpose
It is with persistence
With being a peaceful Warrior
You stand your ground and live YOUR life experiences
That energy brings you those desires and lets abundance flow to you!

Right throughout history we have seen the resilience of spectacular people, I would like to tell you about a truly amazing individual, Miles Hilton-Barber.
Miles has been blind since his early twenties, but has not let that stop him from challenging barriers. He has sought adventure and succeeded on expeditions to deserts, mountains and the polar regions.
He is an exceptional storyteller and corporate motivational speaker whose messages of “never give up”, “expect the unexpected” and “think big to achieve big” come wrapped in a package of humour and profound personal insight.
He uses his experiences as an international adventurer to motivate and inspire others to achieve their potential. His words are not hollow generalisations – he offers practical ideas that work for everyone.

Despite being blind for over 25 years, Miles has still lived his dreams, encouraging us to realise that “The only limits in our lives are those we accept ourselves.”
His remarkable adventures in recent years, setting numerous world records in the process, include:
• First blind pilot to undertake a 55-day, 21,000 kilometre microlight flight from London to Sydney, relying on revolutionary speech-output technology (developed by Software Express) on his instruments for navigation, accompanied by his sighted co-pilot
• Man-hauling a sledge over 250 miles across Antarctica
• Completing “The Toughest Foot-race on Earth” – 150 miles across the Sahara Desert.
• Climbing to 17,500 feet in the Himalayas
• Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and Mt. Blanc- Africa’s/Europe’s highest mountains

• First blind person to pilot a 340 BHP performance rated Zap Cat power boat in ocean time trials
