Nick Vujicic: A Great Leader.

Let’s place ourselves in this scenario: Imagine being born without arms. No arms to wrap around a friend, and no hands to hold the ones you love; no fingers to experience touch ; no way to lift or carry things. How much more difficult would life be if you were living without arms and hands? Or what about legs? Imagine if instead of no arms, you had no legs. No ability to dance, walk, run, or even stand. Now put both of those scenarios together… no arms and no legs. What would you do? How would that affect your everyday life?

Most of us do not take advantage of our body, we are most of the times with a negative attitude and a lack of gratitude and preseverance, we are not concern that we can do anything we want to, many of us think of many things as imposible to achieve, truth is that everything is posible. This person I will talk about is a leader in all aspects he always takes the initiative and he never gives up no matter the circumstances and the obstacles that comes along the way of this role model.

Nick Vujicic was born with no arms and no legs and he didn’t let this stop him from achieving his goals. He enjoys playing golf and football, he swims and surfs despite having no limbs. He has a small foot on his left hip, which helps him gain balance, write, type and pick up things between his toes. Nick Vujicic is an evangelist who has shared a message of hope to over 5 million people in 44 countries. He shares how his faith, which is rooted in the Lord Jesus Christ, changed his life forever! He presents values, principles, attitudes, perspectives that challenge and equip people from all walks of life to overcome their adversities.

Nick Vujicic is the living proof that no one should be discouraged by the difficulties that are shown up during life, no matter how big they might be. Although at the beginning even he had to face his own discouragement and the prejudice of people around, this sometimes bringing him to the verge of suicide, even at the frail age of 10, Nick managed to overcome everything and succeed in many domains, becoming a role model for everyone.
