A few years ago, confronted with the increasing business debt, Vujicic says he nearly gave up to selfdestructive thoughts.But he set small goals: Get out of bed, eat breakfast, leave the house.Those small successes built his confidence to move forward to the next level.“There is nothing about failure that is easy,” he says.“But it is also true that our failures in life teach us to embrace every small victory.Success is that much sweeter when you have struggled to reach it.”
Family and friends are a safety net, including wife Kanae who is expecting their first child.“My parents always taught me,‘You don't know what you are able to do until you try,’” he recalls.“The first time you fail at anything is painful.But you have a decision: Do you give up or do you try again?”
