- 21:21Κάνε την αδυναμία - δύναμη. | Dimitris Papanikolaou | TEDxAthensΜικρός πίστευα ότι επιτυχία είναι να κατακτάς μετάλλια με κάθε κόστος και ότι την είχα κατακτήσει.Όταν ήρθε η κόρη μου στην ζωή και διαγνώστηκε με αυτισμό, μου είπε με τον τρόπο της, ότι επιτυχία είναι να βοηθάς τους ανθρώπους να πιάνουν το ταβάνι τους, ακόμα και αν αυτό δεν αντιστοιχεί σε μετάλλιο. Μου είπε ότι επιτυχία δεν είναι να θαυμάζουν εμένα, αλλά να ξεκινήσουν να θαυμάζουν τον εαυτό τους.Και τα κατάφερε. Κάναμε την αδυναμία δύναμη και συμπαρασύραμε χιλιάδες ανθρώπους.
