NICK VUJCIC — the most famous motivational speaker, director of the non-profit organization Life Without Limbs, created to help people with disabilities. He was born without arms and legs, but he is completely independent and lives a full, busy life: he has completed two higher educations, writes on his computer at a speed of 43 words per minute on his own, surfs, plays golf, enjoys fishing, swimming and even diving from a springboard into the water. Nick travels around the world a lot, inspiring millions of people, talking about how to overcome obstacles and achieve their dreams. He lives in Southern California with his wife Kanae and son Kyoshi.
Nick Vujicic has experienced firsthand what it's like to be persecuted and insulted: without arms and legs, he has been ridiculed and bullied more than once. But he has always been able to deal with his opponents.

be the master of your own life.
Nick Vujicic's protection system
Abusers can't harm me or change my self-image, because it's only me who forms it. I know who I am and what I'm doing.
I don't let anyone ruin my mood. I'm responsible for my own happiness.
My values are unwavering. I have a life plan based on them.
I draw my strength from within, and no stalker can shake my confidence.
I know my family and friends will support me. And I'm always ready to support them.
I'm aware of my emotions, especially my anger and fear. I control my reactions to them and maintain a positive attitude in my thoughts and actions.
My spiritual life is wide and deep. I know I'm built for a high purpose. God loves me just the way I am. Where I am weak, my Creator is strong.
I find positive aspects to every difficult situation — even persecution.
I try to help others at every opportunity, especially those who are bullied of any kind.

We read children's books while having fun and empathizing with the characters. But some good books for kids contain recognizable “case studies” that can and should be analyzed with children. A psychological children's book can become a child's friend.
Marina Solomonova, owner of the Dickens and Marianna (Books and Postcards) shop room (St. Petersburg), talks about new children's books about Stalinist repression on the Rara Avis website.
We continue to compile a list of children's and teenage books that are directly or indirectly related to the topic of school/teenage mobbing/bullying. I am sharing with you an updated list, which includes new books from 2019-2020. Children often don't pay attention to bullying and bullying at school because they are their age
rotting a weak/other/stranger is considered the norm. Books
and films on this topic can help children open up, let adults know that
the problem exists. Read these books with your children, watch their reactions
discuss and tell us what mobbing/bullying is. I'm sure these books
should be included in extracurricular reading lists, and maybe in a circle
school reading, as many of them have already become world and Russian classics
literature.
One idiotic photo. One inappropriate comment on social media after an extra glass of wine. And now my whole life is going downhill. Just one sin, and a wave of popular rage is destroying everything in its path. This is the dark side of social media. Forbes Life publishes an excerpt from “So You Were Publicly Humiliated” by acclaimed writer and documentary filmmaker John Ronson, which will be released by Bombora in January.
The authors of the book “The Art of Retreating. How it helps in life, love and work” Peg Streep and Alan Bernstein (Minsk: Potpourri, 2014, translated from English by Yu.I. Gerasimchik) defy conventional stereotypes that make us fight to the bitter end and never give up. The authors argue that the ability to abandon the goal in time and leave is as valuable as dedication and perseverance. Using examples, they show how people who abandoned their goals in time, stopped trying to prove something, freed themselves from “tunnel vision” and gave up their fanatical dedication to the goal and perseverance in achieving it achieved success in life. When we stop fighting, we overload our minds and minds, give ourselves a break and are able to formulate new goals. Failure, followed by quitting and losing, often paralyzes us. Unable to give up their usual behavior — breaking into closed gates — people often find themselves in a vicious circle. They are accompanied by failures and disappointments. And, as a result, self-esteem falls and depression occurs. <br>
