Over the fifty years I’ve worked as a Professional Speaker I have made speeches in so many different fields and topics and some of my clients have made recordings of my work. I had a big box full and several shelves full of these old VHS’s and just recently a good friend of mine volunteered to work with me turning VHS’s into DVD’s. We have done about twenty now and talk about opening a can of worms! So many wonderful memories have come flooding in and there were others too. Now these are not just little snippets, these presentations are often an hour long and some longer.
And what have I learned from all this? I’ve learned that I was a lucky man who was allowed to visit the lives of many thousands of people with travels that took me to all fifty of these United States and most of Canada too.
Those presentations I treasure most were ones I did for free. I worked the hardest on those too. The people we visited with in Newfoundland were the kindest.
So many tapes and so many memories. I was fat in some, 240 pounds, and slim in others,180. My hair turned from very black to very grey. We just made another video in the woods the other day and my message was the same as it always was. “There is greatness in you. Yes it is true. There is greatness in you.”
