Nicholas James Vujicic was born on December 4, 1982 in Australia. He was an unlucky baby born with ‘tetra-amelia syndrome’, a rare disorder, the absence of arms and legs. He spent his childhood with much difficulty. He had tried to commit suicide thrice. Having understood that life must go on, he forgot about not having hands and legs and he has achieved many things. Now he is 37-years-old and is one of the richest men in the world. He motivates many people in the world.
Although Nick doesn’t have legs and hands like you and me, he has achieved much in his life because of his perseverance.
