Featured Closing Speaker at 2016 GoPro Event with Tony Robbins, Sir Richard Branson and Eric Worre

December 3, 2016 was one of the most exciting moments in my life! I spoke to over 18,000 Type-A go-getters at the closing session of Eric Worre's GoPro event here in Las Vegas! To say it was amazing is an understatement. To have been invited to share the stage with Tony Robbins, Sir Richard Branson, Eric Worre, best-selling authors, Harvard graduates, masters of universes (gulp, I have one semester at Brandies under my belt) and many others was an incredible honor.

For the first time in 27 years, my mom and dad were able to attend an event I spoke at and I was able to publicly thank them and my wife Sondra for all of their love and support. Many stood and clapped for them.

Preparation was simple: I thought of all of my friends, business partners and all that we have been through. Speaking parameters forbade me mentioning the name of the company I have worked with for over 25 years or the company I started with before them. But it felt as though I mentioned you all in the 25 minutes I was addressing the crowd.

Today has been very humbling as we have been flooded with your comments about last night. Thank you all for your support and your kind words, they mean so much. Sondra and I are looking forward to the many more life enriching, exciting events to come. Not exactly sure where we go from here, but have some new ideas! Emotional Leverage!!
