Lao Tzu, an ancient Chinese philosopher, once said that “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Have you ever wondered how far you could go in life if you actually put the philosophy into practice?

What would your life look like if you started to measure success by the degree of improvement you experienced each day, no matter how small, instead of focusing only on whether you failed or succeeded?

Nik Nikic encouraged his son to do just that, with astounding results!

If you’d like to see just how far you can go in life by putting that principle into practice, add 1% Better – Reaching My Full Potential And How You Can Too by Chris and Nik Nikic to your motivational reading list.

1% Better tells the incredible story of Chris Nikic – the first person with Down syndrome to ever complete an IRONMAN® triathlon – through the words of Nik Nikic, Chris’s father. From the moment Chris was born, his parents raised him with the mindset that he could achieve anything he set his mind to do.

So when he became involved in triathlons with the Special Olympics, his dad, Nik, took on the role of coach and encouraged Chris to aim ever higher. Together, they set their sights on making history. Their dream was achieved in November 2020 when 21-year old Chris become the first person with Down syndrome to complete an IRONMAN® triathlon.

Chris says:

My mission is to honor God by being the best me I can be so I can be an example to others, I want to change the perceptions and raise expectations for others like me so we can reach our God-given potential.
