For so many of us, we focus on what we are not.

If only I were tall.

If only I were thin.

If only I was older.

If only I was younger.

If only I could write.

If only I could speak in front of a group.

If only I was good with numbers.

And on and on and on….

Often times we waste precious time lamenting about what we don’t have instead of using what we do have.

That’s why I love this short video about Nick.

It’s easy to recognize what he doesn’t have…at first….

and then you are drawn to the strengths he does have and how well he uses them.

What about you and me?

Are we so conscious about what’s missing from our lives that we are not using the strengths we do have to make a difference?
