When confronted with hardships in their lives, many people find them too challenging and give up, especially on their life dreams. But not for Gabriel Heredia. He also always had the support of friends and family, never feeling discriminated at all by his schoolmates. In fact, his inspiration for such a line of work was his mother, who is a hairdresser.

At the tender age of 14, he started working as a barber, and learned all the techniques to perfecting both haircuts and beard trimmings. Although he first saw it as a hobby, Gabriel quickly determined that this was the profession he wanted to work in.

“I have learnt to serve a glass of water by myself, I’ve studied, I’ve learnt to ride a bike, a motorbike, and even to drive a car,” Gabriel said about growing up with his severe disability.

His family soon helped him open his first barbershop, which he worked at for one and a half years. There, he met Zlatan Gomez, the president of Argentina Corta, an organization for barbers to connect, do charity work in less fortunate neighborhoods, and teach hairdressing to those who are interested. Gabriel is now part of Argentina Corta, offering up his services to people of all ages so they can build up the skills they need to get decent jobs.

As a bright and caring young man, Gabriel strives to not only be a barber, but to also make a connection with the neighborhood:

“The thing that I like the most of my job is that people feel comfortable and stylish with my cuts and that makes me feel happy.”

He is also a perfectionist: “I want my shop to be the best and to have another barbershop too.”

Maybe his perseverance comes from the fact that he’s had to overcome so much in his life, but perhaps his energy also comes from being a father. Gabriel has an eleven-month-old son named Tobias, who “gives me strength. I want to raise him with this message: there is nothing you can’t do. You have to improve yourself day by day.”

Nowadays, runs his own barber shop in Buenos Aires, where people line up around the block for his services. He opened up shop just a month ago with his girlfriend Yanina, whose aunt offered him the space rent-free, and business is booming.

Gabriel’s story shows us the obstacles we face in life are almost never completely insurmountable. Whatever problem you face, you can usually tackle it by innovating, adopting the right mindset, and never giving up. When you encounter difficulty in life, what holds you back the most is often your own mentality.

As the legendary painter Vincent Van Gogh once said: “If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”
