Some Achievements of which I am proud
In 2005 I lived in the Australian outback for three months mustering
cattle.
I organised our 10 year school reunion of which
310 of the 315 students attended.
As the coordinator of the Rockingham Spring Festival,
I helped to double the size of the stall holders, the rides and
had a turn out of over 40,000 visitors, the third largest event
in Western Australia, during 2002 and 2003.
I do a monthly newsletter to over 4200 local businesses,
council workers, community groups etc, obtained from my data base
informing them of new acts of law, events, marketing ideas, business
seminars or training grants, funding or any useful information and
often free tickets to shows- Want to receive it, email
me.
I have worked as a guest speaker at many local
and regional functions.
I have trained and facilitated to over 400 classes
– 4000 participants.I have trained the police, bailiffs, debt
collectors, business owners, government agencies, youth groups,
churches and the general public.
I have been a guest speaker in front of - Federal
Members of Parliament, Chambers, Community Groups and Business Groups,
Expos, Corporate Functions and Awards Nights.
My training seminars are informal, informative,
empowering, fun, motivational and a experience, they are done so
that at the end of the day people are surprised at how fast the
day has gone and what in fact they have learnt.
The mates that I had as a teenager are all still
strong friendships today and my friends are very long term.
For 4 years I have conducted a trial for a business
associate in the district court against lawyers and each time we
have come out on top and are still going strong and it looks like
I have WON that case.
THERE IS NOTHING YOU
CANNOT
ACHIEVE IF YOU WANT IT AND BELIEVE IN IT.
TAKE A RISK!
