If you’ve ever wondered what someone living a Begin With Yes life looks like, watch this video to find out. So many of us are scared to pursue our passions because we are afraid we will fail. Never one to even entertain the thought of failing, Rosie Jon teaches us all a lesson as she shows us how talented of a painter she is, using no hands!
Rosie was born without both of her lower arms, and uses her upper arms and feet to complete ordinary every day tasks. What she does with her feet and a paintbrush, however, is anything but ordinary.
The moral of this story is to never be afraid to try something new, and to never be self-conscious of the way your body may look compared to others. Each and every one of us has so much to offer, and there is no one right way to accomplish our goals. So get out there and give it a shot. If you need to come back and regroup, go ahead, but don’t let much time pass before you get back out there and begin again!
