Thanksgiving, Public Speaking, and Seminar Success
Thanksgiving, Public Speaking, and Seminar Success
When it comes to successful seminar speaking, it all comes down to you. Literally.
Most people I know right now are gearing up to eat a lot and do a lot of nothing. Most of the "working stiffs" I know have already mentally checked out, and are going through the motions to get to the long 4 day weekend.
I have a different attitude, but then I always have. I'm actually going to be working on my new book as much as possible, between bites of turkey and reconnecting with relatives.
But my point is not to create a new game show called "who wants to be a work-a-holic", it's about mind-set. When I say that your seminar speaking success comes down to you, you need to check your attitude toward your work.
Are you just wanting to have seminar success so you can have more long weekends? If so, that's fine, but realize that the truly motivated, successful people actually enjoy what they do. They don't see their work as something to endure until they get to their *real* life. They see what they do as a big part of their real life.
What's your mental attitude toward what you do? Want to share, right here on my blog? What's your reaction to this post? Are you "into" what you do, or is it something you endure just to get to something else?
I really want to know!
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
