Can you imagine walking from American to Canada, on a downhill slope, wet, gusty winds, mist in the air and your 20 stories high? With the five minute countdown left, Nik Wallenda knows exactly how that feels. His body is trembling and legs are under tons of stress but he was prepared and trained to do the impossible. Watching his family attempt to do these impossible tasks such as walking across a wire is nothing new. He has been walking wires since the age of two.
A strong and confident person is one who can make the impossible possible! Wallenda says:
“It’s important to pursue your dreams and never give up. Focus on the other side and achieve your dreams and you can do anything. “
Even though his crazy idea of walking across the Niagara Falls was a 2 year process to get approved, his family supported him throughout his so called crazy dreams. He is doing what NO ONE has ever done and probably no one will ever do!
The years of training and practice that Nick has gone through can never prepare him for what he has faced walking across the falls. His endurance, strength and persistence truly shows a man of character, charisma and courage. Throughout the whole process it was actually nice to hear him thanking God throughout the walk.
When he arrived in Canada he was asked: “ What’s the purpose of your trip sir?”
Nik: “ To inspire others around the world!”
NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAM. NO MATTER THE OBSTACLES, OR NEGATIVE DISTRACTIONS THAT GET IN YOUR WAY!
So what’s next for Nik you ask…He already has plans for to walk across the Grand Canyon!
Believe it and DO IT! Have faith!
Be Blessed, Be Inspired , Be Bold, Be Powerful
