Grab Some Freaking Motivation
At Pure Grind, we’re constantly inspired by hustlers that are working hard, kicking ass, and making a difference. Seeking motivation from others isn’t wrong, nor does it take away from your originality; in fact, it’s important to seek inspiration from those who are doing similar work as you. Motivational speakers have a major impact on the world. Their words are powerful and make you feel like you can conquer anything. And you can! Here are some of our favorite motivational speakers.

Nick Vujicic
Nick Vujicic, or “the man with no limbs,” is an Australian born with Tetra-Amelia syndrome, which is a very rare disorder where a baby is born without all four limbs. No doubt Nick struggled with this condition, not only physically but mentally too. But his condition led him to find his own non-profit organization, “Life Without Limbs.” If you watch his motivational speeches on YouTube, you’ll learn how he’s adapted to life without arms and lengths. He doesn’t let his lack of limbs control his life. He can do what anyone else can do, even type 43 words per minute. Watch “No Arms, No Legs, No Excuses” when he said, “Beautiful things can happen from your broken pieces when you give your broken pieces a chance,” and you’ll feel like you are worth it and can accomplish anything.
