Our Mission is to help people with mental conditions shift their thinking and behavior so that they can lead extraordinary lives. We are dedicated to the concept that recovery does not have to be limited to 90% of full function; true recovery means doing the hard work that brings you to 150%! We help people turn their 'condition' into one that becomes an advantage instead of an 'illness' or a 'disorder.'

Tom Wootton knows that people with bipolar disorder can turn what they perceive as "negatives" into strengths and lead meaningful, productive lives. His philosophy focuses on success, rather than anticipation of failure. He has lived it in his personal and professional life, and he cares deeply about those who hear his message. This is an inspiring book that offers practical tools for living life to its fullest.
