Attitude

"Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our successes or failure." Dr Norman Vincent Peale
Nick Vujicic, pronounced ‘Vooy-cheech’, was born in 1982 in Brisbane, Australia with no arms or legs.  After school, Nick went on with further study and obtained a double Bachelor’s degree, majoring in Accounting and Financial Planning from Griffith University in Logan, Australia.
By the age of 19, Nick started to fulfil his dream of being able to encourage other people “I found the purpose of my existence, and also the purpose of my circumstance.  Believe me, there’s a purpose for why you’re in the fire.”
Nick wholeheartedly believes that there is a purpose in each of the struggles we encounter in our lives, and that our attitude towards those struggles, can be the key to overcoming the challenges we face.
His favourite saying is:  “I have no limbs, what is your excuse?”
