I think the attitude is the most important thing in people´s life. It doesn´t matter how difficult is the situation if you have a positive attitude you are going to attract good things. We don´t have limits if we believe it. The perfect example is Nick´s life, he has done a lot of things than even we haven´t done. The most important thing is to know that it doesn´t materr how much dirty are the things you can always clean.

I think that humans have not limits. All the limitations are in our mind because if you really want something you first thing to do is believe that you can achieve that, second is strive for the goal and then if you fail you just need to try and try because only if you trying again you can taste the good flavor of the victory. Nick's life it's a great example that only if you trying again you can do all the things, things that first need to exist in our mind.

I have often felt alone in life because of limitations in my life I have always felt I can do more but I have always been limited but seeing this video you are my limitations in mind that the bonds have been I could not break. I think this story has taught me never to say or things that limit you persnar because that will make us dim.
Nick says that up is not difficult if not able to proceed without ever thinking that we can never do things and there is to see life from other perspectives in which the limitations do not exist ever in the mind of man

Well... after watching the video I think that Nick´s life is the best example of gratitude; because he is thankful with God for having the oportunity of being alive & he enjoy all the moments, activities and experiences day by day & that´s why he´s a happy man. He shows everybody to don´t give up easily, if we try something & we fail we have to continue trying once & again until we obtain the result we want.
The lesson for me is to do the things with the best actitude, with faith & with a smile on my face & the most important thing is to don´t give up & continue trying!!

Nick´s history is a very good one; he shows that everything we want to do is possible. Sometimes, in our life, we feel scared about the different situations or problems we have. Nick tells us that if we fall down, we should get back up and try again, no matter how many times, we should try! If it is easy for him go fishing, golfing and swimming without legs and arms, imagine what we can do! The most important thing we must have is hope, if we have hope we can believe that everything will be all right!

I think the attitude and willpower is the change in everyone, the desire to fight and realize our dreams, regardless of all obstacles and limitations that exist in our lives, always remembering that we must act with a positive mind, perseverance, desire and passion to fight and achieve success.

Sometimes we yield for things so small they have a solution, we must take as an example the case is Nick he has no legs, no arms and no complexed sees life in a positive way, when we think that life has no solution , let's remind people like Nick going forward seeing good things to life.
We must never give up and we always achieve our dreams for many obstacles that we face in life, we see them as challenges we must overcome.

I think that in the life, all have limitations, but if we have the intention to get up and grow, the stones that God put day to day we pass it, and the life gives more opportunities to discover our abilities and fortitude.
In my life God gave me the opportunity to survive, because when I was born and I had three days of life, I was very bad, and my parents thought that I killed, but God had to me one mission and the attitude is very important.
Finally the Nick’s life helps to understand that in the life all people have limits but the biggest is the mind, and the attitude. We never forget if we think we can to do.

The video of Nick shows us that there are people who to human sight do not have opportunities to excel, however it also shows us that with desires, with effort, you can achieve anything in spite of the disadvantages of life. A very dear friend once said to me, John your sky is the limit, which i understood that there are no limits, i can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!

Rosa Maria said...

I think that is he biggest man. It´s a good lesson of life. he is great man that show us that the life is beautiful and that depend of us fun it. Nick with his inability show that is a man happy and godbless by God.
Please Nick don´t stop inspiring people.

The attitude is very important to reach our goals. If we say that we can't do the things we won't succeed. But we should Believe, while others are doubting. Nick's life is an example that when we want to do something we can reach our goals it doesn't matter if we have difficults.

"Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I think the life has many circumstances to try to be a better person or worst person in the world and depend of us the knowledge the tools in this world for try and try to overtake our goal.
And know when to fall need to get up and think we never be alone always can trust in God.
I have many person that I really admire but in this moment in my memory I have the father Pio of Pieltricena because this person no matter how much was suffering with the stigmata he always rose and helped people. In my case in May of this year my mother had a problem with a eye surgery and she had on bed for three months and I had to cook, clean and wash for she and my brother. and the mor intensive continue with my studies but in that moment I found a doctor and she tell me about her life when was student she said me I had to work and study in the same time and was very difficult but she tell me you can do it.
And know think my goal is to graduate from doctor and continue study in cardiology oncology or pediatrics, have my own clinic and work for Doctors without Borders.

The most important thing is the attitude. All the eye of the beholder. Nick is a great example of that, far from giving testimony is a great entrepreneur. I think we often look at small things and make them transcendent and the things that really deserve the valuations of misleading or simply boxes that can not, because that roadblock turned it into rock. As Nick says, if we fall, we should try to get up again and again and again. With determination and attitude, we can accomplish what we set out.

Is very important that every moment to our life we never say "I can´t" because we can do everything we want, is only of good attitude. The life has difficult moments but we always should trust in God and never should lose faith because with help of God everything is easier. The video is an example that we never should give up in life, every time we fall down we must always stand up the hand of God.

Damaris said...

With positive attitud and faith in God everything that we propose we will do by us, we don't have to give-up, allways we have to have a positive attitud, believe in our heavenly father, and everything will succes for us.
Every positive attitud that we have, we have to share with another poeoples or friends, and maybe, just sharing our type to think we could be making a difference with the type to think to another personal, and could change the life of that person.

we must never forget that if God brought us to the world with all our body parts, we take advantage of opportunities that God puts us and we must always fight for everything we want, if someone with a disability can accomplish so much as a person with all your body parts surrender and not fight for life.
Nick is an example that we should never give up but we must move forward and fight for what we want in this life. And we also thank God for giving us everything and live each day as if it were the latter, we should enjoy, be happy, fight, give hope and to help others because only then we will complete our lives.
WE MUST NEVER GIVE UP

I think Nick is a person blessed by God, because he´s a motivational man, he practice several sports and he went to the university, for us is not difficult because we are a normal persons. I believe that we most take it for example because he´s doing things than even we haven´t done. Nick made me think about my life, because I´m not a disability person. Nick said in the video, I´m happy, because he never give up on his life.

Sometimes we often are not in agreement and we doubt our abilities. In the life there will be difficult moments but we never give up because we can do everything we want, also we always should trust in God and never lose faith. For example in the video Nick tells us that if we fall down, we should get back up and try again, also if we have hope we can believe and all the things will be easy
