A Deaf Pilot Flies in the Clouds
Imagine you're flying along in the clouds from Point A to Point B. You're in the air for a few hours, never once seeing the ground. You've been flying on instruments and now it's time to get ready for a landing. You set up the plane for final approach. If everything goes just right, the photo on your left is what it looks like when you break out of the clouds!Neat, ain't it?
Until next time, have a great one!

Money Talks: How to Make a Million as a Speaker
A very good book debunking myths that abound in the world of professional speaking. For instance, a common myth in the speaking world is to raise your fees when demand exceeds supply. No such thing! You raise your fees when you're able to provide more VALUE to the client. If the client PERCEIVES that you are providing a wealth of benefits, you can and should raise your fees!

There Are No Accidents: Synchronicity and the Stories of Our Lives
This book reaffirmed my belief that everything happens for a reason and that a higher power is working for each and every one of us if we let it. Author shares many wonderful stories of how things have come to people when they go with the flow, take action on ideas and let the universe coordinate what we can't do for ourselves. The author raises your consciousness and helps you realize that everything that's happened in your life happens at just the right time in the right place. I've had this happen a lot in my own life so I can vouch for what the author is trying to convey.
