This past weekend we had a snowstorm in Denver that brought 15" or more of snow to most of the area. After a morning of shoveling out our neighbors and several rounds of hot chocolate, we decided to scrap turn our backs on technology!
I turned my computer off. Put the cell phone away. Stopped watching t.v. and even said goodbye to our furnace. Yes, we decided we were moving into our new home...our made-for-two igloo in our front yard.
Ahh, the simple life. She had her bedroom and I had my family room where I could sit up in full comfort. We brought some cans of soup, some ketchup, and somehow a bottle of protein powder made it into our bag of take-alongs. We were set.
What would your simple life look like? Did you know there is an actual method and a teacher for building a more simple life? Checkout speaker Eric Ochsie and his website called the Abacus Principle where you can learn to escape the hectic life of technology and chaos and move to a more simple life.

A new Way to Get Speaking Gigs
If you've been in the professional speaking business for 10 minutes, you've already realized just how much of a business it is. You really have to be on the top of your game to earn the right to be paid to be on stage. I always get so relaxed when I finally take the stage.
All the steps that have to happen before that moment are simply staggering to most people. One of the biggest pieces of that process is being seen by the right meeting or event planner. A new website called MotivationalSpeakersWorldwide.com is taking a new slant on making that presence happen.
First, they intend to re-define the definition of what a
motivational speaker really is by suggesting, "A motivational speaker is any speaker who is able to inspire the audience to take some form of action." This is fitting too in that meeting and event planners are looking for speakers that can move their audience to action, no matter what topic they're speaking on. They want clear and precise steps presented so their audience will take notes, learn and apply what they've been taught.
If you are looking for a speaker for your next event, or are a speaker looking for ongoing promotion, MotivationalSpeakersWorldwide.com is worth a look.
