Talk # One

Sooner or later, a university student will graduate and have to look for a job
in their career field. Being prepared is the key to making this a successful
event. If they want to give themselves the best possible chance, they must
be able to offer employers more than a degree. Maturity, outstanding
character, related work experience, a compatible personality, financial responsibility, effective communication skills, personal presentation, personal
and professional references, and more are all come into play when it's time to market yourself to an employer.

They've got one chance to make the right impression. This innovative program enlightens and motivates students to take action to use their college campus,
and its treasure of resources and opportunities, to gather the additional
abilities, skills and experiences they need to help them transform and
evolve into the career candidate employers are looking for.

Michael's talk has an empowering message and delivers stimulating examples that increase awareness, ignite thought, empower the mind, instill self-
confidence, motivate, and help students see and use their college campus
as something more than just a great place for socialization. Whether a
student is already in college or on their way, it's never too late to start
making the right career moves.

Talk # Two


Adversity is a fact of life. It might surprise you to know, however, that many
of the adverse events we experience do not actually require a personal
response of time or energy. Knowing when to respond to adversity with an investment of personal resources can result in less stress, more happiness,
and greater
achievment and success in less time. Having a common sense process for
working through adversity is something students are rarely, if ever, exposed to.

This enlightening presentation is an opportunity to give students a gift they will
use for a lifetime. It gives them the information they need to make decisions
about dealing with the challenges of their life from a more conscious level.

This Talk Reveals:

• How to Preserve Your Personal Resources When Adversity Strikes.
• How to Recognize the Two Forms of Adversity.
• Why Perception is the First Step to Navigating Adversity.
• The 2 Successful Responses to Every Event.
• How Gratitude and Forgiveness Can Help You Let Go of Adversity.

Michael has used this 3-step process for over 25 years in his personal and
professional life, as a financial advisor and entrepreneur. It's helped him
navigate adversity, whether large or small. What's amazing is that this simple
3- step process can be immediately applied the moment participants leave
the room.

Life happens at a breakneck pace these days. Being able to deal with
adversity effectively is a skill that can be learned. Categorizing challenges
and understanding you relationship to them is a key factor in finding a path
through or around them.

Give your students a process for dealing with the host of challenges they will
face in their lifetime. Bring Michael to your school to present his innovative process of navigating everyday adversity.
