17-year-old singer, songwriter, rapper, and child prodigy Sparsh Shah was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, an incurable disease commonly referred to as brittle bone disease. Despite having been born with over 30 broken bones and undergoing multiple surgeries, Sparsh refuses to let adversities keep him from pursuing his goals in life. He has won prizes and awards in nine singing competitions, performed for over one billion people on television and the internet, and has become an internet sensation, amassing over 250 million views on his social media platforms.

In addition to his music career, Sparsh is also an international speaker and philanthropist. He has raised over a million dollars for various charities and organizations and appeared on countless radio and television shows, including the World’s Greatest Motivators and NBC’s Little Big Shots. He has also delivered several inspirational keynote speeches, including at TEDx Gateway and the United Nations and for organizations and conferences like Google, the World Summit on Innovation & Entrepreneurship, CIF Higher Education Forum, and the iCAN Summit.

Sparsh is the epitome of a rock star and the true embodiment of turning an impossible situation into an I’m Possible outcome.

Sparsh joins me today to share his inspirational story and how he turned the challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic into new opportunities with positive outcomes. We discuss the difference between goal setting and goal achieving and what he does every day to reach his goals. We discuss how he uses the 4-Box Model to manage his time and tasks to stay focused on his purpose and what’s most important to him. We also discuss why it’s essential to take time to just have fun and how Sparsh makes time to simply be a kid, despite his crazy work schedule.

“Do whatever you know that you’ve been called to do...but don’t delay on it.” - Sparsh Shah
