    Wow. This is such an amazing story. And I know Matt Jeffers. I went to school with him for several years in elementary school and I remember hearing about his surgery in 2003 and how long he was out. I remember how well-liked he was in my grade. I never knew about his mother, though. I can't believe how much he has overcome.

    Matthew, thank you for your powerful and inspiring words, and for your indomitable spirit. In this day and age, there may be people who say that going through life with a positive attitude amounts to naivete, stupidity, ignorance, or even insanity, when in reality, it's the only thing that forces us to look beyond life's obstacles and keep moving forward.

    Hello Mr Matthew Jeffers from Jerusalem. How are you? I hope you are having a wonderful week. I am writing to tell you thank you so much for daily inspiring my life's journey and my life saving Mobileye Intel career where I use artificial intelligence and computer machine learning technology in Jerusalem Israel and where I daily save lives from car collisions. I have a BA degree in history from Goucher College of Towson Baltimore Maryland. You are the greatest human ever. You inspire me to overcome my suicidal thoughts battles to overcome my Autism limitations and weaknesses and to win a Oscar Academy Award next year in April 2022 in Beverly Hills Los Angeles. I will turn 27 years old this May 15th in Jerusalem Israel and I use artificial intelligence and computer machine learning technology to daily save lives from car collisions at Mobileye Intel in Jerusalem Israel for my safe driving startup. The first openly autistic Oscar Academy Award winner was Mr David Byrne in 1987.

    It makes me think, there are so many people in this world. The majority of people in this world that have infinite capacities to do and be good. To feel good. And live healthy, happy prosperous and fulfilling lives and the very thing that prevents them (us) from such, is only within ourselves.
    This video kinda puts things in perspective, for me.
    I swear, what is going to bring world peace is each person understanding and being accountable for themselves, to try (and do) their best.

    "The only disability in life is a bad attitude." I've always loved that quote, originally said by Scott Hamilton. I teach students with disabilities, and I've had this quote on the wall in my classroom for two years now. A great reminder that life will only hold you back if you let it.

    u idiots who say people in wheelchairs don't agree clearly don't understand the point...he means that the only thing that can hold you down or hold you back in life is a bad attitude. Some of the people who have it the worst are the happiest ones because they truly appreciate everything in life.....Inspirational speech Matthew

  • @Aurthorcreation
    @Aurthorcreation 11 лет назад

    There is only one thing that bothers me about this and that is their definition of self pity. Although I agree about the positive attitude approach. Not everyone that experiences self pity is hateful. In fact for example I live in an area where there are hateful people that think that is the only way to get people motivated. I find it irritating to go into a place of business around here and meet someone with a bad attitude. Some people have the confused theory that is how a boss should be.
