Scott Burrows

Expert on Mind-set, Vision & Pure Grit - Overcoming Adversity & Motivational Speaker

Bio

Scott Burrows sees opportunities where others might only see road blocks. An entrepreneur, inspirational speaker, athlete and risk-taker, Scott's powerful strategy: Vision, Mindset and Grit is the cornerstone to his success. His passion is to share his strategy with others and illustrate how to apply it to their own challenges and endeavors.

Growing up, Scott had a promising future in professional sports. He earned a black belt in Kung Fu, fought in an ESPN broadcast kickboxing match and played college football. Through physical activity, Burrows developed a positive mind-set, which is what drove him to continue pushing himself when he was involved in a horrific car accident that left him permanently paralyzed from the chest down. Throughout life-changing events, he maintained his core values and developed an attitude that revolved around taking accountability for your actions and attitudes. Scott Burrows delivers a message about how to maximize human potential, and formulate an unstoppable mindset.

This positive mind-set, sense of perseverance and clarity were what drove him to continue pushing himself to the limit. Despite his physical limitations, Burrows went on to graduate from the University of Florida with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Finance. The insurance business he founded grew tremendously, and by the fifth year, he had exceeded his hefty goals and qualified for the prestigious 'Million Dollar Round Table' award.

He is currently the President of an international business venture, exporting custom blended fertilizers to golf courses in various Asian markets. A 'Murder-ball' athlete and co-author of Conversations On Success demonstrates that Scott continues to be on the playing field of life.
