At some point in their lives, people are bound to go through hard times. And although these experiences may vary in nature and severity, they are always uncomfortable and unpleasant. Some individuals may even find it hard to persevere and keep going because of their struggles. Cognizant of this, 26-year-old Nick Laureano has dedicated himself to helping others overcome any challenge that may come their way. 

As the remarkable young man from Brockton, Massachusetts, insightfully said, “My mission in life is to influence, inspire, motivate and be a beacon of light for those finding their way in life. I’ve always been driven by my pain and past experiences, which led me to be a keynote speaker along with influencing those to find their why in life.”

The influencer is most known for uploading motivational videos on Instagram. Because of his inspiring and relatable content, he has amassed a significant following on the social media platform. In addition, what allows him to stand out is his undeniable authenticity and passion, which resonates strongly with the audience.

Unlike other motivational speakers, Nick Laureano leads by example. He employs the incredible discipline of perseverance and determination. The intuitive individual has committed himself to keep moving forward no matter how good or bad his situation is.

What fueled him to pursue a career that focuses on the growth of others is his firsthand experience with adversity. Like many, he went through a tough phase in his life, and he knows just how much these negative moments can affect and dishearten someone. He shared, “At one point, I had no desire to move forward with life. I lacked the drive, motivation and discipline to maximize on any goals I had planned. I lost my reason to keep going, and I know many tend to lose that edge at one point or another. 

“It’s normal, I’ve realized, but what shouldn’t be normal is the fact that giving up is so commonly spoken about. We give up at the first sight of failure or by listening to the opinion of another that we lose our way, we lose all we worked hard for and put our all behind,” he added.

When he is not inspiring others, the young man is also pursuing his dream of becoming a renowned actor. Aside from that, he is an entrepreneur and the founder of Only the Motivated, a one-of-a-kind clothing venture. The brand’s goal is to inspire and remind people of Nick Laureano’s advocacies as a renowned speaker and influencer.

The garments are a physical representation that a person knows what it is like to struggle and lose their way. Yet despite that, they will continue to fight back and find the strength to keep persevering despite life’s many obstacles.

Moving forward, Nick Laureano plans to scale his success and further elevate his reach. Additionally, he aims to become one of his generation’s greatest actors and motivational speakers. But above all, the outstanding individual hopes to leave a mark and a lasting legacy in humanity.
