ABOUT GUS GUSTAFSON
Gus Gustafson says he was raised in ‘Gus’ utopia’! His life had been perfect! He had great parents, great siblings and a great future. He was the biggest, fastest and strongest in his athletic family at his age. He had dreams of being the next Nebraska Husker I back and then on to the NFL! That was his dream. That was his passion as a boy.
Then came a tragedy that Gus had to deal with! He suffered a horrible farm accident at the age of 9. The question was “How would he respond?”
Would he live through the experience? Would he bounce back? Would he be able to walk again? Would he be able to play ball again?
His love for life, his passion for people and his determination to make a difference is evident. When you hear Gus share his heart warming, challenging story of his life, you will feel invigorated and challenged.
Gus has had the privilege and honor of starting three companies, buying a company and turning it around and he has spent the last 20 years traveling around North America sharing his passion for people and life!
Gus will challenge you to enjoy your journey of life and to “Turn your setbacks into Comebacks.”
