PRESENTATION TOPICS
Re-forge Your Life
When was the last time you really took stock of your life? Not how it was or how you thought it would be, but how it is in the here and now? If the result is not quite what you were hoping for, then it’s time to paint a new canvas. Learn simple, straightforward techniques that will help you renew, refresh, and re-forge your life.
The Goal Game
Everyone talks about the importance of setting goals but only 4% of the population actually writes them down and less than 1% of people take time to regularly review and evaluate their plans. In this focused workshop, learn how to zero in on your most meaningful goals and create a personal blueprint for success.
Up Your Creativity Quotient
Creative impulses are routinely squelched early in life so by the time we become adults, only one in ten individuals will describe themselves as “highly creative.” But in order to innovate, original thought must be encouraged and nurtured. Learn how to re-engage your imagination and incorporate creativity into your home and work life while acquiring effective tools to boost your creative output.
