I love what I do. For over 16 years I’ve been a motivational speaker for students, colleges and corporations. I believe deeply in the power of positive messages, if for no other reason, to balance out all the negativity bombarding us each day.
For a conference, school assembly or meeting, a professional motivational speaker is appropriate. For your daily life, it’s totally unnecessary. You can be your own motivational speaker.
My job is to take healthy messages and package them in humor, stories and compelling prose. A large part of my expertise must be in presentations skills and entertainment. At the core of it, though, are the messages.
The way you talk to yourself – your thoughts – is much more powerful than what a motivational speaker on stage can say to you. Ultimately, I’m just trying to get my audience members to be aware of how they think. I want them to choose thoughts that increase their confidence and enhance their drive.
Be mindful of your mind. Think about how you think. Be aware of how your thoughts and beliefs are influencing your actions. Are you pushing yourself, or restraining yourself? Are you your own cheerleader, or are you your own critic?Talk to yourself the way you’d talk to your own child, and be a source of constant support.
As I said, I’m lucky to be able to do what I do for others. The only ones luckier are those able to do it for themselves.
