Plot

Preeti was barely six years old when doctors diagnosed her deteriorating vision as a condition due to optic atrophy. Those were difficult days but with the support and encouragement of her parents she learnt to get the best out of her disability. She looked for possibilities, focused on every positive she could dream of, always playing her best shot at facing challenges and failures with dignity and without shame. Sprinkled liberally with failures and obstacles, her story is a journey through a fairly difficult life with lots of courage and neversaydie attitude. In her memoirs she shares all the fun she had living life queen size and on her own terms. For she firmly believes, When life gets cloudy, the trick is to look at the silver lining. About the Author A trauma counsellor, corporate trainer, writer, aerobics trainer, public speaker, and director of Silver Linings Human Resource Solution Private Limited all rolled into one, Preeti Mongas achievements are inspirational. Winner of various awards, Preeti was the first Indian visually impaired person to successfully clear the Aerobic Instructor training. Now a successful entrepreneur, she has been relentlessly working on equal rights for people with special needs. That she lost her vision early in life could not deter Preeti from living up to her dreams.
