Hall shares a stunningly candid chronicle of the thrilling highs and devastating lows of living and loving through the rough seas of bipolar disorder. Young sailor and aspiring Olympic competitor Kevin A. Hall’s biggest dream was to raise a family. But within the space of three years, he was diagnosed with both testicular cancer and bipolar disorder, putting his family and Olympic dreams on hold. He soon found that surviving cancer was the easy part. Now Kevin shares a behind-the-scenes look at his struggles with mental illness in his riveting memoir.

Kevin A. Hall is an Ivy League graduate of Brown University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in mathematics and French literature.

Personal Power and Life Balance from the Inside Out with Mary Beth Ford, Ed.D.

When we consider the great forces at play in the world, the flutter of a butterfly’s wings doesn’t seem to have much power. Yet a Chinese proverb states that the power of a butterfly’s wings can be felt around the world. Modern science shows that this proverb may be literally true. The metaphor of butterfly power changes how we view our personal power and influence in the world. It reveals that our small acts can have powerful effects. It restores our belief that we can make a difference. And we find our life balance when we focus on what matters the most to us.

Children's Corner: Quiet Determination, unlocking the gates to success (music) ~ with guest: Kory Livingstone

Many people in North America and around the world question the value of a music education in their kid’s life. School boards often slash music budgets, in favour of readin’, writin’ & ‘rithmetic budgets, when they find themselves in financial difficulty. Parents cite the excuse for not enrolling their children in piano, violin, guitar lessons etc., “ I can’t afford it”.

We all know that 99% of all parents are concerned with the future well-being of their children. That’s why Moms & Dads all over the world encourage their kids to do well in school, listen to the teacher, go to college etc., all of this in the hopes that they’ll acquire friends, get good jobs and ultimately be successful in their lives.

However  most parents, fail to recognize that it’s not education in and of itself that augers well for success, but rather it’s one’s mindset that determines how successful you will be in life...for parents  and children both.

In his new book, “Quiet Determination, unlocking the gates to unlimited success!, Kory Livingstone talks about how mindset, rather than talent or education, is most responsible for our own success in life. Unfortunately for most people, having a mindset for success can’t be purchased. It can only be developed.
