Dear Friends,
I have a story to share with you.
Sometimes we feel like life is unfair.
From all the little things like the traffic jam to perhaps spilling coffee on your favorite shirt... to other things like working long hours and worrying about the unhealthy economy.
With so many things that get us worried or upset, it's no wonder that it's so easy to feel like you're always getting the short end of the stick. Like everything is out of control.
Well, this video of Nick Vujicic is a reminder that external factor are exactly just that! External.
The power to get what we want, be it personal or professional or financial, lies INSIDE us. It should never matter what the external situation or the external economy is like.
So, friends, Are you facing some external roadblocks that seem to be getting in the way of your goals?
How did Nick inspire you then?
Sincerely,
Burt
My name is Burt Goldman. I’m one of those “lucky people” who discovered a secret early in life. For the last 50 years, I have been traveling the world and meeting and studying spiritual masters from every inch of our planet. Now, at the age of 82, I'm ready to share with the world what I have learned. I started this blog to be able to share with you my most valuable teachings and insights I have gained over the past few decades. Here, you'll find plenty of valuable information on meditation, energy healing, spirituality, and my latest revelation, Quantum Jumping. I look forward to connecting with you and I sincerely hope you enjoy being a part of this blog.
Every time I see Nick, I am always amazed, and annoyed with myself for letting the little things get to me. He truly is an inspiration and I can't wait to see what he does after ascension! Love you, Nick!!!
Can you imagine for one minute what this man's life is all about?-Focus on the Drive and Inspiration from God this man has shown and given to a World. What an inspiration for those humans who spend their entire lives complaining about their person and it's Misfortunes. God Loves you and His Planet filled with His expressions of how precious Life is to Him. I'm sure He would like to see it sustained as He created it to exist. Maybe this Christamas we can find a way to bring peace to our planet, bring our kids home, and Live with Love and Compassion for all His life on His Planet. In God WE Trust-
And people still don't believe in Angels and Miracles! I love Nick, he is AWESOME!!!!!!!
That is exactly the kind of guy we need to watch and listen, when we Think we are missing something in our life. So, when we complain about things we don't have,(most of them trivial), let's take a moment and listen to Nick.
I love his spirit, his passion, and his enthusiasm. He is a true role model for so many of us.
Nick, you shine among us, and your beacon of positiveness shines in this age where so many take so much for granted... starting with our legs, feet, and hands.
"Though you are little, you walk amongst the giants."
Nick....Oh! what a mighty God we serve. Thanks for sharing your life with us. May you forever be blessed.
what a wonderful positive person,Im amazed that he can
do what he does very inspirational.great sense of humor.thanks for sharing this video.
Incredible story. That just shows that you can
be content in life with what you have and all
the negative things that happen to you. It's
not what you have on the outside but what you
have on the inside.
He is really an amazing and inspiring example of human spirit. Thanks for sharing.
All i can say is "WOW!!!!!!!" why isnt everyone like this man.
Truly inspirational. This reminds me of the pianist I saw in Houston, when I was with the YMCA.
He had no legs, but had arms and hands. He made his own CDs and also sang!
This man does not have legs or arms and he's a comedian!
How beautiful is the human spirit!
its painful tuches the heart you feel in pain in sipirt
I am finding that pain is the most debilitating thing I have to deal with. Even paralysis from stroke was easier to overcome. I knew somehow I was going to walk again and be alright but Nick has no such hope and yet he is this shinning example of humanity. He is truly precious and amazing. Please pray that I will be able to be out of pain. It is most hard to even think with this constantly gnawing at me. I don't seem to be able to get my strong determination back because I see no end to it. It's been 24/7 for 13 years now. If you know anything I may try that I haven't already, please tell me.
Love to everyone who is trying to overcome personal catastrophy. Thank you, love you Burt

And for the next trick ---- try pulling your leg.
If that was insincere or uncalled for, I apologise, really I'm most impressed and THANK-YOU
I think Nick is a funny guy,but I believe Bill Cosby is funnier and I would like to think of both of them as friends of humanity.Thanks for the insight!
What a fun guy. Such a great attitude and love for life. WOW!
he is amazing i love him he just show me we can have in life whit power we have on life love you dear friendthank you burt
God is so wise to create instruments to remind us that life is wonderful with so much to thank of and be happy about, just like in Nick's. Personally, I wish to thank you for bringing his story. It was very inspirational.
He's such a beautiful person. Thank you for sharing Burt.
I am blown away and touched to the core. I need never feel sorry for myself ever. I will think of Nick if that thought ever crosses my mind again! I am truly speechless. what a fine example of the human spirit Nick is for us.
Thank you, Burt for sharing this.
It is amazing that he has such a great personality.People on earth need to meet this man just to see how blessed they really are in life.
hoooooooooop a lot of energy man....
I was initially extremely pleased to search out this particular web-site.I wanted to thanks for your effort for the wonderful read!! I definitely enjoying any little bit of it and I've you bookmarked to see new items you writing.
we as a species have become lazy as most of us take our health for granted and sometimes it takes something as dramatic as the loss of a limb to wake us up.

I guess my comment is not wanted, as this is the 2nd time a notice of there being a duplicate comment showed itself..when no such comment was made by me peviously.

Please stay connected with your worthyness,as you give more of yourself to us. Thank YOU ciao, Lisa
the comment I posted after seeing the video for the first time WAS NOT posted before, as the computer said. What I wrote TO NICK thanking HIM was heartfelt/important timely
It does not make me feel sure/secure/good/sound/balanced about much

Hi Burt, How do I find out to return an item and get a refund since it is not working for me? Please advise. Best regards, Robert Lisenba
That man reminds me of something. The power of the mind is VASTLY SUPERIOR to just about anything that this world, so to use it means to use (this is a guess number) 999 hundred trillion atoms, which are bound together and create OUR Universe.
Hi Burt,
GOD never cease to amaze me...and he has such a great sense of humor...I really love this guy, thanks for sharing this video with us...I thought that it was so funny that I watched it several times!
Burt,
Very inspiring. If he can overcome his having no arms nor legs, no problem seems too much, in comparison. It makes me almost ashamed to be weighed down by my problems.

To had gotten the chance to watch Nick's video, makes me conclude that the only limitation in life is what we allow ourselves to be robbed by it...this goes to say," How can i have a limit when i've my foot step on the moon... and looking forward to touch the sky itself respectfully" I must say Hi To Nick he frankly extol me to keep climbing. Nick u are incredible with great sense of humor am definitely inspired thanks for making me laugh with courage though nought want to smile.Take care peace n love Nick...
This is truly an inspiring video. Many times we take things for granted and do not realize how fortunate we are. Thank you for sharing this video.
I'm very impressed and enlightened with Nick. He is a true masterpiece. We never realize how lucky we are until we see someone like Nick. He is so determined, positive and courageous. God bless him wherever he goes.
Amen.
Fantastic motivation,spirit,positive attitude etc,we must appreciate and you Burt with this video!All the best!
I love this guy.He really is fantastic. I wish all my 8 kids who were born with their limbs see you and appriciate all that they have, and be very thankful for all that they are.
even though mr nick doesnot have legs and hands he has got beautiful voice which will hypotinize everybody he come across in his entire life. i wish him good luck
he is so happy inside . i think life is hardon me and then i see him. god bless him
Thank you for posting this delightful video. It goes to show you that the only that holds us back is our own sense of limitation. My spiritual teacher, says "there are no mistakes in life". Everything is in divine order.
so enjoy your e-mails bert...all I can think of right now is the saying "dont sweat the small stuff.....and everything in life is small stuff....your body and life is a gift from what ever god you choose to believe..I can hear my mom saying from her grave ..see I told you so..your right ear is deformed you were born like that ....thats nothing GOD blessed you with avery good mind use that and you will be happy....aloha from molokai hawaii kimo xoxoxox
Hi Burt,
I saw Nicks video material some time ago. It is indeed an inspiration. I've chosen to use it an an example for my own material and life coaching work. In my view, it needs to be used in the right way at the right time. In other words, it can have the effect of causing people to feel guilty. My mission is to get people into the correct frame of mind to receive it at a time when they are already beginning to understand the concept of self discovery.
This video is a classic example of how we have the power to choose our feelings and emotions and use them to have a fulfilling life.
Thank you for sharing,
Marty

I needed to see this at this time in my life, and the fact it now appeared to me is not merely coincidental....obviously, Burt, your own presence here doing what you do, is not coincidental, either, but you are fulfilling a ground-breaking purpose. I had not heard of you before today but I sense a certain oneness with your awareness. I note you are now 82 years on the go, but likely Nick will easily see that age and beyond. This is most interesting. His attitude and presence of mind have all to do with that. You present a big challenge to entrenched religiosity, as does Nick in the video. I think also of the two reasonably healthy girls I recently saw whose heads are joined together. Big questions are brought forward about the human condition and purpose when we see such things. There is so much more to see and to learn in advancement to upper levels of understanding, in this world and beyond. You are in the right ball park, I sense. It would be a privilege to sit down with you and compare notes. Thanks.
Thanks Burt for sending this Video. I am stupid if i keep cribbing. God has blessed me with everthing and i thank him a million times for everything he has given me. Rita
Thanks for the clip. I'll have to see the whole thing now.
This is what this negative, faded world needs to see more of. I wish I could have access to this film clip to send to some people with their affluent, poor me attitude. Every day I start with my gratitudes and seeing Nick has added one more gratitude. What an inspiration I will watch this and hope for an opportunity to invite someone towatch it with me. Way to go Nick!!!!
Nick have a challengeous life. We are all finding some way (may be challengeous) to lead/ to exhibit self with an external qulity from other. But Nick have a separate living style from us, without legs and without arms.
Thank you Burt for sharing this vider with us. With God all things are possible.
This should be an inspiration to all. No one can stop you except the LORD.
well, I have been going through a bit of depression this last few days.. But you made me smile so much and a few giggles
So if you can do all that then I can do anything. I just don't feel so depressed any more
Nice 1 Thank you.... Nick made me smile so much for the whole video clip...he is inspirational .....)
Mr.Goldmen! thanks for sharing this video with me
I should be asyhame of myself a men with 2 arms and 2 legs cant be as energetic as Nick. Iam facing lots and lots challenges right now but I need to be thankful that nothing medically wrong with me. I'am Blessed
everyday I should never ever forget that. after watching this video I need to wake up thanks again Mr.Goldmen
Nick gets his strength of character from God. If we surrender to the glory of God, our lives are so much richer in His grace and mercy. I heard Nick say he used to ask God to give him arms and legs, but now he doesn't want them. He is so happy as God made him. "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me" Phil 4:13
Thank you so very much for sharing this video with me today!!! I'm so grateful I see the courage in this young man. I truly encourage myself everyday and sometimes it can get tiring but viewing this video has helped me greatly. Thanks again.
Warmly,
Belinda Campos
Thank you so much for reminding me of this handsome young man; I had been so insired before when our Daughter emailed different video to us. All day I've wanted to cry with my arthritis pain, because I take so long just to get ready for the day. There are days I just want to give up with this pain. But you just reminded me again, how blessed I am. Thank you, I needed to be inspired again. God bless him and you for sharing his video. Sincerely, Josie
u should have lot of guts to face life as it comes and only then u can live a peaceful and effectively. Nick definitely motivates, whoever watches him.
MKRAO
It is one of the miracles of the nature. Mr. Nick has proved again " where there is will there is way " Life of humanbeing is full of challenges. This is a challenge thrown by the nature on Mr. Nick and he has successfully fcaed the challenge.
It is great.
Thanks
E.P.Prabhakar
Great people like Nick have proved the following statement once again.
"Don't believe the lines on your hands because people without hands also have a great future. Believe in yourself."
The success belongs to those who keep doing what they can.
A million thanks for sharing this video clipping.
Thanks & Regards

Thank you Burt everytime i get into a funk people like Nick remind us that our little obsticles are nothing but small bumps in the road He's awesome!!!!!
Unbelivable!!!! I have beeb inspired.Thank you Burt for nice video
I don't think this man have no hand but grown inward while his heart overgrow
Very inspiring
And I thought I had problems.
Thanks a million.
Very inspirational
I woke up feeling like my economics and wages are just unfair and somehow I fail myself but when I watched your video it woke me up. It makes me realize it is not what happens to us that determines how we feel but rather our attitudes. Thanks
I was feeling down and like my economics and wages just aren't fair. This wakes one up. One up and a reminder it is never our situation that determines how we feel but rather our attitude just seems to do it all. Thanks!!!
Thank you burt to shaw us this man, I feel so good now that i feel I have every things but was un happy, but that is one more truth is too, that god gives those kind of prbs to those people who can bare whatever is there capacity, i mean every one feel that there probs are the biger then otheres, becase whatever they are suffering is toomuch for them but this is a very nice way to be happy and possitve that look to the otheres and try to feel that your life is better then them.
It's amasing the things that Nick can do without any arms or legs. And he sound like a very happy person.
Most of us have arms and legs,and we are not happy with the life that we have.....Thank you for sharing this video with us.....I do appreciate it very much....
Thanks again.......

THIS MAN IS TRUELY AN ANGLE SENT FROM HEAVEN. HE GIVES ME HOPE AND LIFTS MY SPIRIT. AFTER WATCHING HIS VIDEO, I HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING ANY MORE AND BE THANKFUL FOR EVERY THING I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH IN MY LIFE. THANK YOU NICK FOR SHARING YOUR STORY, AND THANK YOU BURT FOR SPREADING HIS MESSAGE. FOREVER GREATFUL, IRENE
I've seen Nick's videos before. He's such an amazing person. His story is awesome. And Nick's positive attitude is truly incredible. Thanks for sharing this inspiring video.
Many Blessings,
Brian Carnes
I have seen this video of Nick many times. It is so inspiring and when I am down I watch it to help me uplift my spirit. I deal with a brain chemistry imbalance and this video and your Quantum Lite really help me to balance my brain.
Thank you
Raven
Yes,I have seen him before. He is amazing. We should all take inspiration from him. Thank you Burt for showing him.
Dear Burke,
Thank you for sharing me this video, there are so many of us who should be thinking like him. His misfortune did not stop him from achieving something.I knew somebody with one arm but raised five children and baked pies, which not to many of us endowed with everything in life can.He is a total shame to those people who have intellect and all the limbs but cannot achieve anything for themselves.
IT IS SO AMAZING HOW THIS MAN HAS KNOW ARM AND LEGS, BUT HAVE A BETTER SENSE OF HUMOR THAN MOST OF US. THERE ARE THINGS IN MY LIFE THAT I WAS WONDERING ABOUT. BUT WHEN I LOOK AT THIS YOUNG MAN AND SEE THE CHALLENGES HE FACE EVERY DAY, I KNOW I CAN DO IT. HE IS AN INSPIRATION TO ALL OF US. HE DOES NOT SEE HIS HANDY, BUT HIS POSSIBILITIES. GOD BLESS THEM RICHLY, WHERE EVER HE IS. EVELYN
That is very inspirational. It is also a warning for people who have legs and arms but are still crying out loud for not having shoes to wear. Thank you, it is highly motivational.
TMA
I can understand now why people say watching Nick makes you cry. He could have reminders hundreds of times a day of the things he can't do, but he focuses only on what he can do. He could look back at his life and say 'there were so many things I couldn't do because ....' but, instead, he will look back at his life and say 'I did what I could' - because that's the kind of guy he is.
Thanks for sharing this.
You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will agree with your opinion.
thankyou Burt, this is so motivating and inspirational....what a man he is Nick!!!!!the video reminded me to not give up on my dreams due to my severe ill health which is debilitating.i am planning for vaction to the mountains....soon.i love his attitude. thanks for wonderful people like NICK,AND YOU. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Thank you Burt,
Beautiful video. This means mind over matter and we must keep being part of a POSITIVE energy in our thoughts and actions. Each one can be there if we want.
Blessings
Mati
Realmente a vida se refaz fantasticamente,muito obrigado por tudo,como eu poderia aprender inglês,mais fácil,obrigado (thanks)
Thanks Burt. That was inspirational. There is always hope in life and we should be thankful for everything that comes to us.
Jean
I too have seen this before but you can never see him enough. He is an incredible man. What an inspiration too us all. Thank you for sharing Burt!
WOW, Burt do you think it possible he could grow arms and legs? He has the heart, the attitude...... I believe all things are possible.
I went to the same school as nick did, he was my senior and he has always been the same person, same character etc...he's always making jokes all the time in high school...and he's always smiling and happy @ school, ive never seen him feeling down or feeling like he's different. never. he is trully a very cool person to hang around with and he has a lot of friends too...this is cool to see, i never thought he'd b in youtube and all...runcorn state high school's in brisbane is the best! the only school that excepted disabled people...(deaf, needs special care, etc...)
Thanks Burt! You've helped me be more postive,more grateful to God, more hopeful, more amazed. This man is incrediable!!!! I wish to share it with my whole family. Ditto more people need to see him. He should be on Oprah. On CNN. His picture should be on the cover of every magazine out there.Truly amazing!!!I wish I could meet him. Has he written any books yet?
Hi Burt
He is incredible.he is right we should be strong.and see the light.thank u so much for sharing this video with us.

there is no words to describe God, but wonderful miracles!!!!
I've seen Kevin before, but needed to see him again. I'm struggling with breast cancer and have a hard time staying positive which is so crucial to my recovery. I mainly find it difficult because i now have a huge debt and no money coming in and desperately need more money to complete my healing.
Ditto!
I cannot tell you how time appropriate this email came to me. I feel like a such a fool for thinking I should simply give up on my dream because the going has gotten tough! Thank you.....by the way....I'm sending this to my son who is chasing his dream as well and having a very tough day too! xo Cin
awsome man of God.
Have seen him before. He is incredible! Thanks for having him on.
Hi Burt,
I enjoy watching e-mails from you!
Thank you!
i have seen this before and i think he is a good role model for his to get every day and face the challenges
every day more people need to see this
