Allen - firstly I agree with Artist. Secondly, you can rarely motivate someone that doesn't want to be motivated especially if their loss of motivation is through fear of faiulre - the best thing to do (that I have found) is to say "yeh, you're right, you can't do it" etc etc, and then pretty soon they're all gagging to have another go.. bizzare hey? the joy of reverse psychology!!

Good luck - I suggest you get him to try and work in the wheelchair and then see what happens - preferably with having flu at the same time - may give him a slight idea what it is to be "you" and to identify with the barriers you face every day..

Keep smiling!!

Love
