Profil

These journeys are not about David himself, but he wanted to make a difference in the lives of children born with cleft lips and pallets. Through these journeys enough funding was raised to enable some 1800 children to receive corrective facial surgery through Operation Smile.

Over the past few years David Grier has learnt so much about life, not just the day to day lessons of how to survive, but deeper lessons, the lessons that leave scars deeply etched in ones mind, there is always that one crucial lesson that stands out after a journey. As an individual David has had to change in so many ways, but seeing the rewards that the process of change brings one, the crazy reward of hope that we have to hang onto every day of our lives if we want to remain positive about the future. In his lectures he illustrates that ones attitude and motivation are the fundamental core ingredients on how one approaches life and ultimately bears such influence on success at the end of the day.
