National Speakers Association

I just returned from the National Speakers Association Convention where I spent 8 days with 1300 professional speakers, trainers, authors, and consultants.  These are my people and I had a wonderful time learning from some of the best in the business.  I thought I'd share some of the best insights I got:"Take a stand.  Don't try to make everyone happy." - Larry Winget"If comfort is your goal, success is not in your future.  You have to work when you don't feel like it." - Bill Bachrach"Don't be a 'thought follower'." - Steve Siebold"When you change the way you look at a situation, the situation changes." - Murray Smith"Stop thinking like a marketer and start thinking like a publisher." - David Newman"The more you realize your thinking is wrong, the more you'll sell." - Steven Gaffney"Text on a slide is not a visual aid." – Terri Sjodin"When doubt creeps in, you are making your opponent stronger." - Kyle Maynard
