Reaching Greatness In Leathercraft

[jprieto]

We all here want to be good, very good, at leather craft.

Sometimes, to me and perhaps a few others, it get a little fustrating.

But I learned that those discouraging periods are considered the DOWN times,

and there is a video that I watched that helped my stick to keep at it, and get UP again

I hope you will enjoy this video, and find it an inspiration too.

And perhaps one day you will reach your goals, he did!

Enjoy (comments very apreciated, good or bad)

A Must Watch Video

I don't understand the must watch about that and I'm not being mean. It appears he was a thalidomide baby and it's unfortunate but all people have misfortunes. I think you're being a little insensitive to try and compare a learning curve on leather work to what he had to overcome. I'm sorry, I'm trying but I just don't get it? Cheryl

possible you saw wrong video

the video is about a friend

nothing at all about a thalidomide baby

i double checked link, and it links to the right video

the video does relate to reaching goals

and being good at leathercraft is a goal of mine, and of many others

pretty sure you are talking about a different video

the video is about a friend, by the way

thanks

ps: this is considered one of the most inspirational videos ever!

Another link to Nick's video

[TwinOaks]

A "thalidomide baby" is a term for a child that is born with severe defects, often missing arms or legs, due to the mother's use of Thalidomide during pregnancy. (Google is my friend;))

Yes, Nick is a good inspirational speaker.

I'm sorry I didn't explain that....it's been banned for years so that can't be what caused his handicap I don't think. Sorry, cheryl
