Motivational speaker Nick Vujicic continued to spread his message of hope on the second day of his visit in Singapore when he gave inspirational talks to both employees and business leaders.

Born without limbs, the 30-year-old Australian has been travelling across the world to share his story and speak to people about the value and purpose of life.

Vujicic gave a talk to MediaCorp staff and shared this piece of advice: “If your network of people doesn’t try to find more positive news stories, then who will? It’s always easy to find a bad story because bad news spread more than good news. I’m not the only inspirational guy in Singapore. I’ve been inspired by many people in Singapore! There are Singaporeans who have inspired me, wheelchairs and no wheelchairs. There are people in this nation who are inspiring. Continue to go out and find those stories.”

Vujicic also gave a lunch talk to business leaders on how big corporations can inspire through social responsibility.

He said: “Don’t forget that one of the greatest things to keep up your morale in your company, in your employees, is to understand we are making a difference. And we are not just making a difference for our bosses, not just making a difference for our company. We are making a difference in this nation to build up that company, to build up that nation, to employ more people so that other families have a greater opportunity in life that they have full education, and then all of us become a contributing, generous member of society.”

His words of advice were well received.

For Walt Disney Studios Singapore’s Managing Director Robert Crockett, Vujicic’s advice left a deep impression of him.

“As an employer, let employees have balance in life, and respect their balance,” said Mr Crockett.
