What I Learned From Nick Vujicic

What I Learned From Nick Vujicic

By Gavan Wall

Be grateful with what you have and what you don’t have.

On today’s episode of the Speed Mentor Podcast, Gavan talks about what he learned from Nick Vujicic. Nick is a motivational speaker who was born with no limbs and no arms. He knows his no ordinary, so he learned to embrace the fact; he makes it as his ultimate power to contribute value to others. It was difficult for him being different growing up and almost gave up on life. But, he got through it and decided that he has a mission – a mission to inspire others through his personal stories and experience. The biggest takeaway of Gavan from Nick is when you want something, then there should be no excuses. Listen in to know more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Gavan’s advice: When taking down notes, go digital instead of using papers. It’s easier to go back to them anywhere, anytime if they are also synced in the cloud. Nick Vujicic is born with Phocomelia, a rare congenital disorder, characterised by the absence of arms and limbs. He is now 36 years of age and now known as a motivational speaker. He was bullied a lot when he was in school and this significantly affected his mental health. At the early age of 8, he was depressed and suicidal. He has a ‘chicken drumstick’, as he calls it, which is one of his two small and deformed feet. This can type 45 words per minute according to him. Nick’s parent treated him as a normal person. For example, when Nick asked his mom to reach something from the top shelf because he couldn’t reach it, his mom refused to get it for him and advised to find his own ways on how to do it. Instead of sulking about this, he got creative, went out of his way, and amazingly did it. Your truth and value are not the numbers of likes you get on Facebook, it’s the people that you surround yourself with. His speaking career journey all started from the time the school janitor told him he could be a speaker. The idea got stuck on his head and decided one day to just go for it. He contacted schools and got rejections. He refused to give up and instead, learned the art of pitching.

BEST MOMENTS

“Her parents said to him: You need to sort yourself out. No one’s going to do it for you.” “He doesn’t know what’s impossible until he knows what’s possible.” “Attitude is altitude.” “You can be angry for what you don’t have and be grateful for what you do have. Have the courage to feel. Embrace your journey. If it was easy, there will be no joy and achievement.” “…he didn’t listen to that comment because he knew what he wanted. Nick decided he wanted it so badly, he wasn’t going to let rejections get in his way.” “Believe in the impossible – an impossible dream, and it can be born.”
