NICK VUJICIC: INSPIRATIONAL, MOVING AND SPIRITUALLY LIMITLESS

 

NICK VUJICIC: INSPIRATIONAL, MOVING AND SPIRITUALLY LIMITLESS When world-renowned motivational speaker and Life Without Limbs director Nick Vujicic was first escorted on stage in a wheelchair, the room fell silent in awe and admiration. True, many have heard of him; and thousands have watched his videos all over the Internet. But seeing him in the flesh was something different. It brought along an overwhelming feeling of anticipation and eagerness, as well as huge pride and gratitude to the V for presenting this opportunity—having such an amazing spirit speak right there on the V stage.  He opened his talk on the topic of hope and keeping one's head up at all times, no matter what change and circumstance may bring. "Just because you can't see hope today doesn't mean it's not there. If you only believe what you see or what you're told, then you are missing out on a lot." On overcoming difficult circumstances, Nick told the crowd that, "if it's not meant to be, maybe it's not meant to be. But you never know until you go and find out." As with everything else in this life, "you will always have more questions than answers. That's where FAITH comes in." What is FAITH? For Nick Vujicic, "FAITH is Full Assurance In The Heart." It is imperative to keep hope and keep faith—keep them most in the darkest of hours; and remember that, "when I fail, I am not a failure." It's part of reality. People have to wake up and understand that success doesn't happen overnight.  "Everything starts small. Encourage yourself, take small steps, and look back to see how far you have come. Take one day at a time." And finally, remember that it is actually possible to "change your obstacles to opportunities." "Life is always an uphill climb. But the higher you climb, the more you see. When doing business, the value of YOU does not change whether you succeed or not… (And) if you put your faith in temporary things, your happiness will be temporary." Finally, he summoned the crowd. "Position yourself to take an opportunity today. There is no luck, chance, or coincidence. If something is not for you, then believe that there must be something else. Know that even the most broken pieces of yourself can be used for good. If you don't get a miracle, you can still be a miracle for someone else." During the 10-minute open forum, more of Nick Vujicic was revealed. Two resonant angles surfaced: one, his devotion to God, and two, his personal strength in accepting and understanding free will. When asked about his driving force, he answered, "I am here to love God, serve God, and love people."
