May 30, 2018
Most people lack motivation and inspiration, even though their lives could be a lot worse they take their life for granted. Nick Scott is well known in the weightlifting world as he is the voice of wheelchair bodybuilding for IFBB & NPC team. He not only is he known for body building and weight lifting he is also a published author and a motivational speaker. With all this on his plate he still loves and enjoys his life with all of his accomplishments.
Nick has recently started going to school around the world and speaking about his disability and how he overcame it and actually used it as a stepping stone to become something greater and change the lives of many others. He talked about how he became paralyzed and how life changed for him but it never stopped him from doing the things that he loved doing, lifting weights.
He went on to win many awards for body building and weight lifting, he used these as proof on how anything is obtainable with just hard work and dedication.
Jackson-Milton student, Joey Williams said, “The things he said were not only inspirational but motivated me to have a different outlook on life.”
He was very well liked at Jackson-Milton and he even took pictures with kids that wanted them. He is a very good person, and many strive to have the motivation he has in life but with his speeches he inspires you to become motivated and make your life the best it can be. Overall, a big thank you to Nick Scott for sharing his motivational story.
