Publisher's summary

Is it possible to change your thoughts and see possibilities rather than limitations? Is it possible to change your perspective on your life’s greatest problems? This is what Morten Bonde investigates in his book Sentenced to Blindness - Now What? A Journey from Hopelessness Street to Possibility Road.

With research into the human mind, the practice of mindfulness behavior and meditation, and four challenges in four months to reprogram his subconscious mind, he shares how he decided to become greater than his greatest life-challenge: Blindness!

Morten Bonde has an eye condition that is slowly making him go blind. In 2016, his vision was so severely reduced that his life couldn’t continue as before. It had been all go with a family and a career as senior art director at the LEGO Group. Then his whole world collapsed. But when everything was at its bleakest, he experienced a sudden clarity for how to regain zest for life and emerge from the darkness stronger than ever before. He succeeded in returning from hopelessness to regaining a positive and indomitable view of life.

”I found a process that turned my fading vision into clarity. I turned a weakness into a strength. That process can be copied by anyone for any challenge in life”.

Relatable and so understandable

Morten Bonde story hits home, in every single way. His story is fantastic and the delivery is not solely focused on vision, but the challenges that Retinitis Pigmentosa creates. His method of dealing with the challenges was nearly identical to my own. Lying to yourself, denying reality, hiding it and the isolation that it provides.

Thank you for sharing your story, the hard truths, the hard hits and the amazing method you have found to help with your journey. I appreciate you.

Great book!

I strongly recommend everyone to read this book! Morten Bonde’s thoughts on life challenges and how to manage them in a positive way are definitely relevant to everyone, not only those who suffer from a degenerative disease.

Unhappy with your current situation? Take back your power with this practical guide to living your best life.

I liked how relatable this book was. I also live with RP and found it similar to my situation. I’ve tried and tested these tools and they work. I would like to recommend this book two people experiencing sight loss but also anyone struggling with illness or grief. I give it five stars because it is a mix of humor, humanity, science and practical steps that are actionable. The authors narration is very easy to listen to. When I am asked how I cope with vision loss I wish people could read this book because they would understand, The key to happiness is not the circumstances you find yourself in but how you view them. This is a beautiful illustration of the power of perception.
