Nick Vujicic, although born disabled, proved it in the world where every disability has ability. No wonder he was an unequivocal statement that he is empowered by his disability and has found unique ways to manage his rare disease. Nick Vujicic, a Christian evangelist and motivational speaker, has given thoughtful talks from Australia to America and other countries around the world, urging people to focus on things that are not preventing their disabilities from improving, but are this to regret things it bothers.

Biography of Nick Vujicic

Nick Vujicic was born with a rare disorder characterized by the absence of arms and legs, known medically as Phocomelia, on December 4, 1982 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. His full birth name is Nicholas James Vujicic. His Tetra Amelia Syndrome form (without fully formed limbs) shocked his birth parents that even his mother refused at first sight to hold him after birth. However, his parents later came to terms with reality and accepted him as a manifestation of God’s plan.

He underwent surgeries in an attempt to separate the toes of his foot from Merged to allow him to use them as fingers to turn a page, grab something, or do other things he would normally have done with his hands , which made his childhood an ordeal. At one point in his life he attempted suicide, but for what the future held for him, he couldn’t go through with the heinous act.

Despite being severely bullied while growing up at 17, Nick Vujicic took it upon himself to rise above the teenage average and change his situation forever. He began comfortably using his toes on the phone, typing on the computer, combing his hair, shaving, playing the drums, brushing his teeth and even getting a glass of water. He gave lectures on social groups from his prayer group. He finished high school and enrolled at Griffith University, where at age 21 he earned a degree in commerce and a dual degree in accounting and financial planning.

In 2005, Nick Vujicic founded an international non-profit organization and ministry known as Life Without Limbs, which has brought hope to the downtrodden. In 2017, he founded a secular, motivational speaking company called Attitude is Altitude, which teaches and nurtures motivational speakers. The relentless man has had the unique honor of traveling to various countries around the world such as Switzerland standing on podiums/platforms such as TED and the World Economic Forum to deliver lectures and speeches.

In addition, he honed his acting skills in a short film entitled The Butterfly Circus where his role as Will earned him the award for Best Actor in a Short Film at the Independent Film Festival Method Fest 2010. Moreso, in August 2011, released his company – Attitude Is Altitude released a musical single and video entitled Something More .

As well as being a motivational speaker, Nick Vujicic is a best-selling author with a number of books on Life Without Limits ; Inspiration for a Ridiculously Good Life (2007) Life Without Limits; How to Live a Ridiculously Good Life (2010), Unstoppable: The Incredible Power of Faith in Action (2012), Love Without Limits: A Remarkable Story of True Love That Conquers All (2014), Stand Strong (2014), Be The Hands and Feet: Live Out God’s Love for All His Children (2018).

His mother, to encourage him, gave Nick a newspaper that featured a man with multiple disabilities who was still living well despite his physical disabilities. This moment marked the turning point in Nick Vujicic’s life as he searched for ways to make life worthwhile.
