Simon Harmer - search for five positives for every negative, my story of being blown away.

Simon was a medic on patrol in Afghanistan when he stepped on an IED. He lost both of his legs.
 
Despite his injuries Simon has gone on to do lots of charity work, fundraising and speaking events.  

He feels it is now his duty to serve in a different way and give back having been so fortunate to receive so much help while he was recovering.
 
My favourite part from this interview is that one of the nurses caring for Simon told him to find three good things for every one negative thing, in true military style he went above and beyond to make the goal five instead of three.
