Welcome To Nino’s Mission

November 2nd, 2006

Hello. My name is Nino Savona, I am from Clifton Park, New York, and I would like to welcome you and thank you for visiting my new website, Nino’s mission.com.

My primary objective for Nino’s Mission.com is to inspire and teach people with physical disabilities — as well as people without disabilities — from all around the world, that they can achieve anything in life if they just believe in themselves. I also believe, given the opportunity, that I can motivate and help change the world’s perception about people with disabilities, because if someone like me can do it, then what could YOU achieve?

No matter what life throws at you, there are NO EXCUSES! Do the best you can with what you have. Making excuses will only rob you of the richer life that you can lead if only you will take responsibility, believe in yourself and go make things happen. As you will see by my photos and my accomplishments, and you will see in my upcoming posts to this weblog, I make no excuses for myself, so why should you?

Here is one I keep hearing: “IT’S IMPOSSIBLE.”

When you hear this, coming from others or from yourself, I urge you to think about the fact that everything was impossible before it became possible. Automobiles were impossible, until they became possible. Flying in airplanes was impossible, until it became possible. Putting a man on the moon was impossible, until it became possible. Climbing Mt. Everest and running a mile in under four minutes were said to be impossible — until someone made them possible.

I could go on for pages about achievements in technology, engineering, medicine, business sports and every other field of endeavor, that people said couldn’t be done. Someone did them anyway. And the more you think about it, the more you realize that virtually every achievement was “impossible” until someone came along and did it.

Almost everyone told me that competing in bodybuilding would be impossible. Well, I made it possible and became a huge success, thanks to GOD and my belief in possibility! Sometimes it may take a little longer or require more work, but I believe anything is possible — all you have to do is cast aside your doubts and limitations, stop making excuses, and take action to make it happen!

Thank you again for visiting and for giving me the opportunity to share my life experience with you. In the days, weeks and months ahead, you can visit this site often to learn more about me, my philosophy on life and overcoming adversity, to learn more about my approach to health and fitness, and follow along as I train for my next competition.

    Hey Nino,

    I see you at Gold’s Gym in Clifton Park every week. It’s a laugh seeing some people flop around on the machines and put on 5 or 10 lbs and not really care about their workout… then I look over and see you pushing the envelope. Rock on buddy. I’m sure you’ve come to love lactic acid just about as much as I have.

    I am training for something. I don’t know what it is yet, but I run 5-6 miles daily and stretch/lift for an hour after that. There’s something good about the sauna, too… so I go there for 20 minutes after the physical exercise to slow down and chill out.

    I am glad to hear why you’re motivated. I wanted to tag your blog with this:

    I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me - Philippians 4:13

    God Bless You Brother,
    Jeff

    Nino,

    You are a champion.

    I applied for the ARMY reserve last year and was knocked back for 2 reasons one of which was a high BMI (ie too fat).

    I was quite annoyed by my failed application, nevertheless I started a rigorous training regime and with the right info (thanks to Tom Venuto) I made significant improvements until…………….I injured my foot. The injury is commonly known as ‘Policeman’s Heel’ and apparently it happens to people like me in their late 30’s who take up running.

    I was on crutches for 3 weeks and lost some of the progress that I made earlier. Now I haven’t gone back to the fat level I had previously but it would have been better to keep going.

    To me your website is like a smack in the head. It’s inspirational and I plan to come back again to read some more. I will never EVER make excuses again, bad foot or otherwise.

    Cheers
    David
