Ever have a milestone week?

This has been one of the best weeks I can remember in many many years. Hopefully you will have an incredible and memorable week very soon too. Savor it when you do. This was an Aha! week to extrapolate from the chapter 6 in my Where To Go From Here book. Here is a video of the book signing at Just books in Old Greenwich http://tinyurl.com/yc2wjr3. I also gave 3 other speeches which were very well received including a keynote kickoff for the Norwalk Chamber of Commerce. I played golf on a couple of fabulous golf courses - even posted my best score on one of the toughest in Connecticut.
We also attended a wedding on the water with a phenomenol band where the trombone player danced up a storm and played. Next week I am off to China for a 10 day visit with a business group.
In life you grow new branches on your tree and expand your hosizons from new people you meet, new exeperiences you take in, important accomplishments you complete, and new learnings you make along the way. We have so much to be grateful for. Go for it - expand your reach today!

Your Aha! Moments - Speaking Engagements & Sept 22 Book Signing

What Are Your "Aha" Moments?

Perhaps have recently experienced – an “Aha” moment.

This is a moment that clarifies what has been, and hasn’t been, working for you thus far. After this moment, there is a new clarity in your business or on the job. For some people, it’s the moment when they identify what they were really meant to do in life. For others, it’s the moment when they figure out why certain workplace environments never really made sense for them. And for

still others, it’s the moment when they get clear about how to move on from a particular professional relationship with a specific person. This clarity can be from either a positive or a negative experience.

For all of these people who encounter what I call the “Aha” moment, there is a common element: Identifying their own best use.

** The first goal you scored in hockey, lacrosse, or soccer or match you won... after months or years of practice

** The first time you solved a long-standing, energy-draining problem – with a breakthrough of your own
