Watch the video first:


I felt like this video connected with me on a personal level. Not because I'm Chinese and also a pianist, but because I'm inspired by this man's determination to live his life to the fullest even with such a disability.

Piano without hands. I would have never thought such a thing possible. Yet this man started lessons at the age of 19 (already a late age to begin learning piano) and showed that he can play beautiful songs that, while not terribly difficult, demonstrate that he has the capacity to be a true pianist.

Sometimes I feel like I'm really limited. I'm not smart enough to get the best marks in school. I might have long losing streaks in SC and ragequit afterwards. I might get rejected by a girl and let it get to me. All of these point to the heavy conclusion that I'm a failure.

But then I remind myself that there are things that only I can do. Things that I excel at, that I'm not so bad after all.

Seeing people like this man inspire me to be more. To try harder in school, to meet more people, to live life to the fullest. And of course, to pwn more noobs in SC.

If life is a game, will you play to win? Or will you lose before even trying?

Hiii TL, just wanted to share, hope it makes you think a bit and enjoy life more

Just try to make yourself better today than you were yesterday. Don't worry about winning or losing. Just do the things you want to or have to do , with full conviction. That is success.
Each day gets better : )

life is to short to do things you dont care about to reach goals you dont even want to, this just shows that you may as well live your life trying to accomplish your goals whatever they may be...the 1st step though is to find them GLHF every1 success is what you achieve in your goals which is usually to improve by trying to do something until you can and then continuing to another thing

nice video

very inspiring yes
but you have accept and embrace that there are limitations in life
for example, this man, as remarkable as this is, will never be able to play liszt's feux follets
you just have accept it and make the best out of it and he certainly has
