“IF YOU FAIL, TRY AGAIN”

Nicholas James Vujicic was born at 4 December 1982. He is an Australian Christian

evangelist and motivational speaker that born without arms and legs. After his mother

showed him a newspaper article about a man dealing with disability when he was seventeen,

he started to give talks at his prayer group. In 2007, he founded Attitude is Altitude, a

motivational speaking company. And now he is a famous motivational speaker in the world.

From his speech titled “If you fail, try again”, I found a very valuable message. He

said that all people have experienced periods of downfall, but in that time we have to keep up

and try until we succeed. Maybe we will fail hundreds of times, but keep trying hundreds of

times anyway, because every time we try, there is an opportunity that happens at that time.

And with that opportunity, one day we will definitely succeed to get back up. He also said the

key to keep survive is to find a strength that can sustain us, and he said that his strength is

from Jesus Christ. After we find that power, we will be able to rise up.

I think his technique is very good. He was able to attract the attention of the audience

to listen to his speech and obtain messages from his speech. His method is a direct delivery

without seeing text. This is what makes him worthy of the thumbs up because he is able to

deliver a very useful speech based on the reality of life. His body language is also very good.

Even though he has a physical deficiency, he still able to use his body language well. This is

what makes me idolize and really appreciate him as a motivator in the world.

“MAU HIDUP SUKSES? (REAL SECRET OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE)”

Deddy Corbuzier (born in Jakarta, December 28, 1976) is a popular mentalist in

Indonesia. His fame is not only because of his profession as a film artist, but also because of

his appearance in the world of entertainment. And through the “Hitam Putih” talk show, he is

now one of the most famous motivators in Indonesia.

Through his motivational video entitled “Mau Hidup Sukses? (Real Secret of

Successful People)”, I got a valuable message so I can find the real key to be a successful

person. In his speech, he told about how someone can achieve success. And it was not

because factors of education, economics and family. After doing research on successful and

unsuccessful people, he found a surprising fact that the great affects of a person’s life is the

environment. Therefore he told that to be a successful person needs to get along with

successful people too or people who can have a positive impact on our lives that support us to

succeed in the future.

His technique is good because he is able to deliver meaningful messages to his

audience and his method is without seeing the text so that it makes the audience more focused

when listening. And his body language is also good because he makes eye contact to the

audience, and sometimes demonstrates the words that are spoken.
