Catch Breaks

T - Minus 240 Days

Simon Sinek says "You're not nervous. You're excited."

First time I heard that line, I just laughed. Is that like some people who get sexually aroused thinking about food?

However, recently with no notice I was asked to come up and speak - demonstrating telling a story with act outs, ending up with vocal variety, using hands, and having a strong mount and dismount.

It was a huge Chamber event at the Mexican Senate with about 300 international business leaders in the room. Unlike the United States, the Mexican Senate is very active in cultivating business, and it was an honor to be asked on stage.

Going up to the podium I flashed back to high school basketball where you wanted the ball to break a press or take the winning shot.

Who would have thought that a poor handicapped kid from rural Oklahoma would someday be a featured speaker at the Mexican Senate?

Time for you to be the ball.
