I loved the “folksy” way that you presented this.
You have accomplished so much and by giving back, you have shown the true value of being one of the greatest.

I especially liked the part about brainstorming no matter what time of the night it is. 13 years ago I ran to the local wmart at 3:oo am to begin what has become a great door opener for me. Took a lot of notes while listening to this audio.
Saved this to my favorites. Awsome!

Rosalind Gardner’s recommendation to listen to your insights were on ‘point’ I felt as though I was listening to a friend of mine speak.

Thanks for the simplified, non-complicated, approach to sharing.

Nedra

Wow Yanik! you certainly cut the chase in that video and provide us, mere mortals, with powerful no B.S insights! While watching your presentation, I discovered with pleasure how much your vision and values are in line with my own!

I’d really love to meet you one day to explore whatever synergy exists and how we could potentially contribute to each other’s endeavors.

In dynamic peace,

Boring, simplistic and fundamentally immoral

All this talk about how easy it is if you just follow these simple basics!

If industry standards fit 90% plus of people who pay you money will lose money themselves.

No words of caution.

Plenty of times the words ‘simple’ and ‘easy’.

Plenty of name dropping: Richard Branson, Robert Rainer etc.

Plenty of saying what a nice guy you are: your wife, your kids, giving 5% to charity, working with Branson on his charity.

Why, if you had been born 100 years earlier, you would have been a great snake oil salesman.

And in the proud tradition of the motivational speakers. But even Zig Ziglar, when confronted with the numbers that motivational speeches don’t work had the humility to be embarrassed.

Hope you sleep well at night, and your beautiful wife and kids still love you, even tho’, in your heart you know, you have made yourself rich by making others poorer.

Even tho’ you know that your have manipulated people to raise their aspirations. And when they fail, they won’t blame you, they’ll blame themselves.

Thanks Yanik
