About book

It blocks them from following the path that their hearts yearn for, fading the light that had provided them with a path to see and follow; a goal to comprehend and grasp. Without a spark of light to lead the way, there is nothing but a dark void, welcoming them to a deep darkness where hope cannot lend a match to lighten the environment. The fear of another failure can lead to the loss of wanting to try again. Failure is what pushes people to the ground. Fear is what keeps them on the floor, hopeless. It is the person's choice to get back up again, to spark the chance of success. Vujicic urges others to never give up. Even when a person falls, he/she must never lose the hope of succeeding, of passing the barrier of fear.

'Every failure is a step closer to success; every time you try and fail you learn something new'. Through this illustration, Vujicic managed to paint the picture of how one must never lose the mentality of trying again and again. The path towards a goal or destination can only be reached one step at a time. There might be times when the steps find themselves wandering away from the path, but one must never give up the hope of finally reaching the destination.

This speech from Vujicic magnifies his strong willpower and persistence. When someone gives up, his hope is lost and is there no chance of success. Once he tries again, there is that chance of succeeding. Nick Vujicic's persistence is one filled with the surging energy of an unsurpassable bull. He will make sure to always get back up after a fall. He will never give up.
