great stuff those people are absolutely loving it the feedback is incredible
it's the ultimate
member benefits
it's the obvious member benefit and it's it's too bad it it took this long to
implement
yet one-third them
alright i was talking to a couple people about so-called motivational speakers
and we got into a discussion about
whether or not a lot of them are religious and i started looking into
different different motivational speakers and three came up with a bunch
of different information i'll present some of it now
we know about the people like joe pearlstein he jakes and these pastor
type
motivational speakers okay so those are overly religious let's put those apart
but what about the ones that are less overly religious and i started looking
into different people for some of the well-known ones are for example our good
friend tony broderick willis if you remember tony robbins here's a little
bit of audio video of tony robbins this is him speaking at at ted
the israeli would be to serve you bought that really look at most a society
thinks biography of yesterday
the past few days the future and of course it doesn't do it
but what people miss reno on what we do have to remind ourselves over to the
know something intellectually you to know what to do with the not use it not
apply
so really waiter myself this decision is the ultimate power
that's what it really it's not ok first tony robbins also known of course for
uh... wearing really big suggests relative to his uh... body size
so in a in self-pity which hears of the big idea of post and the toxic seven
something like that
so tony robbins i got most people associate as religious but if you start
doing all of their research robbins does allude to his belief in god quite a bit
in his book on limited power he talks about
the grand complexity of life is evidence of an intelligent designer of some kind
so again not overly religious but religion definitely affected their them
let's go to les brown les brown is a guy who warmer i believe ohio
congressman maybe current of higher state that the state legislature
now here's something else
you must be positive
see a lot of people that things will happen when they want it wanted to
happen
they become negative
and make time out to stop projecting a lot of the advantages
melville you've got to make the conscious deliberate effort
to be positive okay so there's less brown but again if you listen to
annapolis brian did some research
you get him talking quite a bit about all the work he does regularly with
churches and how important is to be working with churches again not not a
religious zealot per se but religion playing a big part there the last
example there's many more of these the great zig ziglar known as a motivational
speaker here he is
toronto
with a substantial chicken
they said my friend state while the
following the wrong time
role models
is what you said today
and his family falling apart
uh... he is a has helped us in danger
okay so there's a little bit is a very good in your idea an idea and zig ziglar
very well no not only as a motivational speaker but as a a a religious speaker
as well so that when a little bit more overt then let's look at some other
people like for example steven art covey author of the seven habits of highly
effective people there is any habits of highly effective
people i don't remember very important presence in his books where he talks
about want is a very important but
he talks about his mormon faith and how it is important to his entire guiding
principles which he is palaces in those books so what's the question your lives
the question is why are
religious speakers were they tend to uh... water motivational speakers tend
to be religious politicized isn't motivational speaking a profession that
attracts
religious people
is motivational speaking a profession where only religious people succeed for
whatever reason what do you think
i would say that the former
really yeah
you think that motivational speaking by definition
is something that attracts people that have a strong belief in god
or or where god or religion
informs their worldview in some kind of
definitely and why would that be
uh... i don't know i'd feel
i feel like they feel the need to because of their religion into
to spread uh... positivity positivity spread the gospel to spread good in
strike help people so in other words on the car and i wouldn't say that people
who are religious wouldn't do that but it tends to be more something that
religious people do so you're saying is less likely for someone for whom
religion does not play as big a role in the lives that would be less likely that
they would be interested in pursuing a career
of getting up in front of people and talking in this way which is interesting
because
their is a similarity between motivational speaking in speaking in
front of the congregation rights very clear to see what that similarity is
right
at the same time though
it could be argued that it is somewhat similar to for example uh... be a
newspapers and karta ho some kind of show or something like that
but religion
far less connected to people who present news and talk to people
on the radio run television verses the connection between being a
congregational speaker
and being a motivational speaker
what do you think welded up to the audience give me your thoughts on this
is a profession is the profession
what attracts religion or is it a profession where religion is the only
way you can succeed what do you think about this
