Big Questions - Insights From a Motivational Speaker

Have you got something inside of you that you are just bursting to tell the world?

It might be a big question that Google can’t answer.

I took this concept from a book called The Referable Speaker by Michael Port and Andrew Davis (hands down the best book on professional speaking I’ve ever read).

Expert or Visionary?

The world is full of highly qualified experts. As an expert you are interchangeable. A commodity. Nothing wrong with that.

As a visionary, you have latched onto a single idea. One question. Challenging. Simply expressed. This question becomes uniquely yours.

Jay Acunzo asks: Why don’t business people trust their intuition?

Ann Handley asks: What would inspire marketers to take bigger risks?

Simon Sink asks: Why do business leaders start with WHAT?

These speakers drive discussion through simple questions.

Mine: How do we expect people to change if we never teach them how to change?

What about you? Do you have this niggling question about your industry or profession?

It may be the start of something more valuable to you than you think.

If we haven’t met yet…

I never considered myself good at change until I went from

-average shot to army sniper

-home movies to National Geographic cameraman

-fumbling card tricks to a professional magician

-never swinging a hammer to building a home

-high school dropout to published author

-business illiterate to building & selling a business

-stutterer to motivational speaker

Turns out I know how to change, I know how to make it simple, and I know how to stand on stage & make it fun so others want to do it too.
