For motivational speaker Nick Santonastasso, changing your circumstances starts with changing your mindset. To illustrate this tenet of his philosophy, the 26-year-old entrepreneur and author tells his origin story.
Before he was born, he was diagnosed with Hanhart syndrome, a rare condition that affects limb development. His parents were told their baby had a 30% chance of survival.
“The decision my parents made in that moment was to focus on the 30% chance of me living versus the 70% chance of me dying,” he says. “When you identify how the brain works, what you focus on in your life, you get more of.”
This lesson is at the heart of Santonastasso’s work as a speaker. Through sharing his unique story, he trains professionals around the world how to reach their full potential. In 2018, he released his first book, Victim to Victor: How to Overcome the Victim Mentality to Live the Life You Love.
On. Dec. 14, Santonastasso will host a webinar for Founders Network members where he will share his strategies for personal and professional success.
In his webinar, he will also discuss:
