Far more than you might imagine, especially if they have an autism spectrum disorder, a learning disability or similar condition.

This emotional roadblock can get in the way of just about everything else. In Come to Life! Tom explains the mantra he created to help drive his life forward: Know Yourself. Love Yourself. Be Yourself.
