No Arms or Legs



This is Nick Vujicic, he as given over 1,600 speeches and traveled to 12 nations. Nicks story caught my attention not because of what he had done, but how he is doing it. He is amazing not because he has no arms or legs, but because he is inspiring thousands of people as a evangelist and corporate motivational speaker. He fills stadiums with tens of thousands of people wanting to hear his words.

Nick said when he was younger his mother told him that when people start to stare to speak, and thats just what he has been doing. At 17 he started speaking at groups, at 19 he received dozens of invitations to speak.



Nick is 25 has bought a home in Southern California and started a non-profit organization called "Life with out Limbs". Within the last 6 months his staff has grown from 3 to 10 people and he has a personal assistant that helps him with his daily routine.

Everyday at some point in time we hear these words coming from somones mouth " I can'nt do it"! So lets drop the pity party and stand up.

Nick says people relate to him not because they have no arms or legs, but because they understand about being alone, confused and he rejected.

So the reason that I put this story together is not to show you what Nick can do, but to give us all inspiration, to do anything that we chose to do!
