Nick Vujicic's life story is gonna change your view about the troubles and problems in life. He's an overcomer who choose to believe there's no limits with God despite of his own limits. His in-spite-of faith has inspired many to live life with greater purpose. Read his full story at the link below:

Have a look at this video to know how he actually does the simple daily tasks we take for granted since young.... brushing, combing, drinking...etc.
If you have read his life story, you would have known he's overcome all odds to attain bachelor's degree, able to dream great dreams for himself, and believing he's gonna achieve it! How positive can one be... placing no limits on himself despite the obvious physical limitations to the human eye... The positive environment he grew up in really made a difference, coupled with a strong personal decision never to bow down and give up hope, holding on to great attitudes in life... He succeeded in living out a quality of life that supercedes many of us!
His story can inspire us teachers too...
Are we putting limits on our students just as easily as we put limits on someone like Nick?
Are we going to stop at equipping them with content knowledge and be contented that we're fulfilling learning outcomes?
Or are we gonna break down the walls of limitations in their minds and add wings to their dreams by believing in them, encouraging them, looking at them and say there's no limits to how far they can achieve? It's not building self-esteem here, it's shaping lives and lighting that passion within them to go for something that's larger than life.
The influence of a teacher goes a long way in students... don't waste it away.
