Nick is an inspirational speaker and says, "Motivation gets you through the day, but inspiration lasts a lifetime.""
High School and College - Commencement Speeches
With end of school pressures and the fear of entering into a new realm of the unknown approaching, students need to be reassured that what lies around the corner is going to be exciting and worth stepping into. Nick shares at graduation ceremonies about exploring new possibilities, facing challenges and embracing opportunities as they come. He shares from his own struggles of not knowing what to expect and from his own limitations, which seemingly would have prevented him from a successful future. He speaks of how he- a man without arms or legs could not only graduate high school but also go through university to obtain a double major bachelors degree, and then continue on to follow his dream of motivating millions of people worldwide. Nick encourages his audience to reach for their goals, and not allow their fears to dictate their future. His inspirational words, along with his humorous approach make for a truly motivational commencement speaker.
High School
Nick has used some basic life principles to overcome the circumstances of his life. When he was born with no arms and no legs he could not forsee a future in which he could accomplish all that he has today. However he learned to dream big in pursuing his passions and now travels the world as an inspiration speaker. In high schools Nick shares principles such as:
Don’t be afraid to be different or try something new.
Your life’s ambitions and goals are only limited by your fear to dream big.
Your level of achievement is not limited by your abilities and can be altered by developing unwavering persistence to accomplish your goals.
Your passions are the keys to defining your purpose.
Elementary through Jr. High
When speaking to schools and children, Nick focuses on issues such as bullying and self-esteem, forgiveness and helping others. Using his unique humor he is able to command the attention of hundreds of students at a time. He encourages the students to dream big and never give up. By showing the students what he has accomplished in spite of his physical limitations, he is able to show them that they are more equipped than they realize to achieve their goals in life. He inspires children to find new and different ways to overcome their own obstacles.
When Nick speaks to student audiences you can anticipate that he will speak for approximately 40 minutes to one hour and then do hugs and pictures afterward with each of the students.
Student Philosophy
We believe that school life can be a valuable experience for both students and educators. Nick dealt with an unrelenting amount of bullying growing up, but learned a lifelong lesson that he shares with the world. Never give up!
It is frame of mind that shapes a persons future. Nick coaches today's youth to understand that everyone is significant. The power of positive attitude can be taught and Nick encourages the children and staff to look beyond their circumstances and graduate to the next level.
Nick provides hope for all of us. If he can do it, we can do it!
