Keeping the Focus - Everest
Let me take you on a journey to the mountains of Nepal and you get to hear parts of my personal challenges:
-
experiencing a severe burnout, getting healthy enough to climb Mt. Everest in 2015, only to barely survive Nepal's worst earthquake in 80 years.
-
in 2016 I went blind on the summit of Everest! How I climbed down the mountain while blind is a lot like what we are dealing with trying to navigate business in the midst of a pandemic!
-
Participants will learn: How we all can empower ourselves by the choices and decisions we make every day, especially when things are tough and do not go as we hoped for -- or even worse that we thought... like they did for us when the earthquake hit!
Life is not for Sissies
Look, we’re all hit by the pandemic, it sucks for all of us. While we may have been wishing and hoping that it would be over by now, the fact is that this is a part of our current reality. And the reality is that Life isn’t for Sissies. Quit looking for a savior or other solutions.
In this talk I share personal stories of adversity and setback. Discover my rules for living a successful life and learn mindset shifts that will shift your perspectives of life and help you:
-
Don’t give in too soon on your dreams
-
Adapt to challenges
-
Boost your moral

Become more resilient
Stop wishing and whining and start doing
