Well, this is the big one! I mean there's Tedx, working for companies (on my own contracts), there's the podcast, Herbalife, YouTube, selling things on my website, business cards, meetings, presentations. Omg! I mean I really need to thing and plan this one out thoroughly. Podcast One of the biggest goals of course for this... Continue Reading →
HAPPY NEW YEARS! Being on top of my balcony and seeing the amount of fireworks I did last night was just resounding. I felt the love in the air and now I'm onto the biggest year of my life (as I said last year and it exceeded my expectations). On the other hand, the majority... Continue Reading →
When Lewis Howes sat down with Tony Robbins on a few instance, I still remember the story Tony told. I know this story from the back of my mind, and shockingly enough, Sir John Templeton (who I gave a bad rap on his Tedx for because his on-stage presence and attire - lol!) told him...

So, my first podcast (which will be below the first part of this in terms of finding your fight) was uploaded yesterday. I didn't have time to attach the blog with it, and I also got a real time text message about a job denying me work and see how I reacted to it. Great... Continue Reading →
So, today marked the first day of doing my first ever Tedx on my podcast. Here are some notes.

He was wearing about 5 different colors, spoke extremely fast, and had one of the most awkward stances I've seen on... Continue Reading →

We know how a lot of speakers are: monotone speakers, talkers, bores, we have a wide variety. Dale Carnegie talks in his book about how someone, with the power of... Continue Reading →

If you look at comedic stand-ups (although TED is much difference from hurling jokes at people), they look at people in the audience who's enjoying their show, not the... Continue Reading →
There was a famed author at TED not too long ago who Chris Anderson was so excited to see because of his speaking capabilities. What happened instead horrified him. This is called the Sales Pitch. If you go on stage, especially at TED, you CANNOT go on stage with intent to sale a product, especially... Continue Reading →
That moment you're standing in front of a class of 15, to standing in front of thousands of people who are waiting anxiously for you to say that first word to captivate them. YES! It's difficult. It's terrifying. From memorizing verbatim; to not remembering even your introduction. Les Brown said, "you know what, I get... Continue Reading →
