Youth Seminar


It's not all work. Sometimes it's a privilege.

We were recently asked to speak to a youth seminar about motivation and life goals. Why me you ask? I'm still wondering that myself. :)

Shawn was unable to join me but I spent half an hour talking to a great group of kids about how to achieve their goals in life.  The event was sponsored by the Agriculture Federal Credit Union.

It was incredible that some of these youngsters already know what they want in life. The young man with his hand up on the right wants to be an architect and is already pursuing his dream by drawing and developing his creative skills.

Another young woman sitting second from the right wants to be a marine biologist. I encourage all these kids to follow their dreams.

1. What is your passion and how do you make that your life's work?

2. Never blame anyone else for your mistakes.

3. Never let anyone tell you it can't be done. 

4. Looks for ways to achieve goals rather than find reasons for why it can't be done.  

5. If someone tries to bring you down let your revenge be your success.

6. Keep your eyes on the ultimate goal while taking baby steps to get there.

7. There's no such thing as luck. We create our own opportunities. If you plant enough seeds, the plant  that's meant to grow will reveal itself. 

Some of the organizers.

Thanks for having me attend
