ALVIN
LAW
The life of Alvin Law could easily have become a tragic story—but it didn't turn out that way. Born without arms, and given up by his birth family, Alvin, today, is a successful professional speaker, living proof that out of nothing, and with the right combination of Attitude, Learning, Value of self, Imagination and Never giving up, the impossible is truly within your grasp…even if you use your feet!
Alvin has defied enormous odds to live a full, completely independent life in which he has become a husband and a father, and a professional who speaks to more than 150,00 people each year. He has made it, but he might not have made it were it not for his high school music teacher who, along with the shop teacher, built a special chair so that Alvin could play the trombone with his feet. He might not have made it without the Little League coach who had him pinch-run every game, or the mother who said, "load the dishwasher," and didn't complain when he broke half the dishes.

Alvin’s programs have become so popular in the Canadian and American educational systems that since 1988, over 100,000 students and 35,000 teachers a year have been witness to his refreshing brand of reflection. In 1986, Alvin ran for a seat in the Saskatchewan Legislature. In a tight race he finished second, but the experience was invaluable. From 1985 to 1988, Alvin worked for Saskatchewan’s biggest advertising agency. As an account executive he spent considerable time in corporate boardrooms, gaining priceless knowledge. Alvin agrees his frontline experiences in numerous impressive and diverse fields don’t equal a Master’s Degree or a PhD, but when added to his remarkable background, Alvin’s credibility speaks for itself. In 2006, he released a book on his remarkable story so far, Alvin's Laws of Life: 5 Steps To Successfully Overcome Anything.

What does Alvin Law talk about?
No Such Thing as Can't

Alvin Law overcame adversity but he is the first one to tell you that it really isn't about him. It's all about the incredible power of humanity and the difference that one person can make. It's a message that just doesn't resonate, but practically reverberates, as it moves and gets audiences everywhere up off their chairs.Alvin's talks include such key points as:

  • Attitude is more than just being positive…it's a way of looking at life, ours and everybody's. It is said to be Everything because it is Everything. It defines who we are and what we become!
  • Love is the most complicated human dynamic and unconditional love is a practical impossibility yet essential for self acceptance!
  • Victims exist because with all the greatness one can achieve, the opposite is also true. Yet, there has never been and will never be an answer to the question…Why Me? We are given one life and what we do with it is completely up to us…No Matter What!
  • Imagination is the key that unlocks the power of potential. It is not owned by the young but they are best at using it. It defines the difference between Obstacles and Possibilities!
  • Never give up!! Easy to say, hard to do. The biggest enemy we will ever have we encounter every time we look in a mirror. Yet mirrors do not reflect who we truly are…our lives do.
