'When I was 13, I
read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great
things and helped others,' said Nick.
'I
realised why God had made us like this - to give hope to others. It was so
inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage other people and
give them the courage that the article had given me.’
'I
decided to be thankful for what I do have, not get angry about what I don't.’
'I
looked at myself in the mirror and said: 'You know what the world is right that
I have no arms or legs, but they'll never take away the beauty of my eyes.' I
wanted to concentrate on something good that I had.'

challenges in our lives are there to strengthen our convictions. They are not
there to run us over", said Nick. In 1990 Nick won the Australian Young
