I’m Lucky

February 10th, 2014

VictoryRocks!I like what I do AND I’m good at it. And my clients rock.

I recently attended the Training magazine annual conference and Training Top 125 Award gala in San Diego.

It was an awesome night. 

My clients did very well overall. In fact, some did exceptionally well. Here are some results –

  • #1 – up from #2 (both a small and a giant step)
  • #2 – up from #41!
  • #15 – up from #28
  • #19 – up from #63 last year and #118 the year before!
  • #30 – up from #101!
  • #35 – first time on the list (only one newcomer placed higher)

I was absolutely thrilled by their success, which made me realize a few things –

  1. I know what I’m doing. Like, fer real.
  2. I’m genuinely fond of my clients. They are good people who win me over with their dedication and passion for what they do as well as the excellence they achieve.
  3. My clients seem to dig me, too. One picked me up, spun me around and shouted, “You’re a rock star!” Definitely a top moment of the evening.
  4. I AM LUCKY. All this adds up to me having a pretty good life.

So thank you to all the wonderful people who put their trust in me to help them shine.

P.S. I couldn’t help but put together a slide of all the selfies and photos from that night and drop them into my session presentation the next day. Pretty good proof point.
