One time, when I was a boy of
6 or 7, I was standing in a hallway, looking into a room
at a weird angle. At that young age, I didn't realize
that if your eyes were in two different places, you'd
get two different perspectives. I closed one eye
and I only saw the wall, I closed the other eye and saw
into the room, but with both eyes wide open I was
convinced I could see through walls. I told my
older brother about my extraordinary abilities , and he still makes fun of me until this day.
Begin to understand, from the right
angle with eyes wide open you too can see through walls.
First you must learn to open both eyes.
Topics: Corporate Management the
value of team work. Running Clubs training, planning
and motivation. High School Students leadership and
the importance of self teaching. Triathlon Clubs
building successful training plans and programs. Jr.
Athletic Coaches Associations how to coach children. If you would like me to work for you, as a
presenter or public speaker, call me at any time to
discuss your ambitions.
I have had many
wonderful experiences in my life. I thank, and
think of daily, people who have given me
opportunities beyond my wildest dreams, those who have supported me through
my insanity and passion for life, without them I would
not be the person I am today.
I do not
profess to be a know it all. In fact, it is what I do
not know that drives my passions.
I have
had many people tell me that my life's experiences would
make an awesome book and I should pursue a career as a
journalist. I must admit, and I am sure you will soon
realize, I have no such talent. I prefer to talk and
interact with people, looking them in the eyes and
sharing their feelings, their hopes, while recognizing their
doubts and sharing my own with them.
Everyone has doubts, everyone has a story,
everyone has had unique experiences. These experiences
are written into history, some of them can not change,
but our perception of them can change if we only give
ourselves a chance to learn. These lessons make
people who they are today, but they do not need to
dictate who we will be tomorrow.
Give yourself the
chance to learn from yourself. I can not teach you. The most
valuable of lessons are self taught. Remember this: There is no
better idea than mine. There is no better
solution to my problems than mine. I have no better teacher
than myself. Our teachers and professors know this
to be true. Why do you think so much of your
education was dedicated to homework?
It is very easy for us to build
"experience walls" around our lives, walls for protection.
Those walls can be built to keep us in, or to keep
other's out. No one wants you to tear down your
"experience walls", but if you learn how to peek over
them or, like a young boy, see through them you will see
life differently and become better to yourself, and in
turn become better to others.
