Several weeks ago I introduced Sean Patrick to readers in my Influencers from Around the World article. Because there are so many people in different countries reading Influence PEOPLE I thought it would be a good learning experience to hear from other trainers around the world and how they use the principles of influence. Sean […]
Wow, I turn 46 in a few days! That sounded so old many years ago but not so much now. I’m an April Fools baby. I still get teased about that and my reply is always the same, “I may be a fool but I’m not stupid.” With 46 years behind me I like to […]
A few weeks ago I took the day off to blog and do other social media related things but as the hours passed I had writer’s block. Nothing was coming to me until I read a very interesting article, Chris Brogan – Anchoring and Social Proof – Influencing Your Audience, by Paul Hebert. The article […]

She’s very athletically gifted, far more than she realizes. She learned to swim at just two and a half years old and was on the swim […]
