The Power to Make a Difference
We all have the power to make a difference in this world.
To connect to your purpose and strengths you must overcome your fears and anxieties and follow the inner voice that calls you to push through whatever pain to get to your dreams. You must obtain a level of awareness that exceeds the noise of the world and the illusion of “What is.”
Chris Nikic, stereotype disrupter and first Down Syndrome triathlete to complete an Ironman competition knows his strength is to fight through pain.
After surviving and overcoming 5 months of open-heart surgeries, he knew something extraordinary had happened. Chris overcame his fear and overcame anxiety. That new-found strength led him to dream of competing in the Ironman race, but also came with the question, “The pain or the dream?” He chose the dream.
One problem, though. THEY’VE BEEN SAYING THAT FOR 100 YEARS! They say it when the economy is good. They say it when the economy is bad. (Maybe if you say this no matter what the economy is doing, up or down, it says more about you than about anything going on in the outside world.)
Today, choose to think differently. Say YES and YES.
“Yes, I am fortunate that I have a job. Yes, I am fortunate I can pay my rent and buy groceries. I’m happy and thankful, but I’m not satisfied.”
A small mental shift can be profound. It starts to change your external world.
Over the course of a year, Chris trained hard with the concept of becoming better and better every day. Stay strong. Stay êt. One push up. One sit-up. One squat. Hard work, ethic, dedication, and determination to get 1% better every day.
Chris’ advice for living life, “Start small, stay active, choose to be happy. This will change your life. This has changed my life. Push yourself and keep going”.
