Nick Vujicic's inspirational story
Recently Nick Vujicic spoke with BBC Capital about his extraordinary life and his recipe for success in the world. It turns out that Nick is a pretty famous guy and has done plenty of interviews before, but this one brought him to my attention and if you haven’t heard Nick’s story before you’ll want to check it out.
Nick Vujicic is the 32-year-old president of motivational speech marketer ‘Attitude is Altitude’. He was born without arms or legs, making everyday tasks such as brushing your teeth more difficult. Even so, he lives life to the fullest and has become an in-demand inspirational speaker; from the video above it’s easy to see why.
There is no medical explanation for Vujicic’s physical disability, an extremely rare congenital disorder known as tetra-amelia syndrome. He has a small foot on his left hip however, which helps him balance. He can type, pick things up between his toes and even kick a ball.
As the BBC interview explains, confidence didn’t come naturally to Vujicic. Growing up in Melbourne, Australia, he struggled with depression. Over time, Vujicic worked on adopting a positive attitude—at 17 an encounter with his high school janitor inspired him to go into public speaking.
