Once his mother took him and told him to see a newspaper that had an article regarding a man struggling hopefully, coping up with his grievous physical abnormality or disability. This changed him as a person and changed his perception towards life, and this became his key Turning point. 

He realized he wasn't the only one struggling if someone else could embrace his grievous physical abnormality then why can't he and then he embraced his disabilities. After this, Nick realized his life should worth inspiring and his achievements must inspire others and became grateful for whatever he got in his life faith helped nick to gradually find out a way to live life to its fullest even with disabilities.

  3. Risk, is not just part of life. It is life. The place between your comfort zone and your dream is where life takes place.
