Don’t Focus On Negativity, You’ll Give Up Control With Tim Sanders
Tim Sanders spent most of his early career on the cutting edge of innovation and change. He was an early stage member of Mark Cuban’s Broadcast.com, which had the largest opening day IPO in history. After Yahoo acquired the company, Tim was tapped to lead their ValueLab, and by 2001, he rose to Chief Solutions Officer. In 2005, he founded Deeper Media, which provides consulting services for leading brands.
Today he is one of the top-rated speakers on the lecture circuit. Tim is the author of four books, including the New York Times bestseller Love Is the Killer App: How To Win Business & Influence Friends. It’s been translated into over a dozen languages and has been featured in Fast Company, USA Today, the New York Times, The Boston Globe, Christian Science Monitor and on CNN. He’s a master storyteller who offers listeners actionable takeaways that produce results right away. That’s why he’s one of the top speakers on the lecture circuit.

Top Quotes
* I was so lucky to be on the ground floor of Mark Cubans company.

* When I was a junior in college, my father was murdered.
* Until that moment, my life was on a rocket ship, I’d already turned it round before.
* I read a quote by Napoleon Hill “Put yourself back in a time when you were loved and when you felt like anything was possible and realises that, that time can be this time.”
* I knew I could be that guy again.
* I called my mum and she asked me one question, “What are you not doing today, that you were doing back when you were on top.”
* Success is not a destination, you never get there.
* Success is a direction and that direction is forward.

* I’ve never found a truly vicious person who ended up happy with what they accomplished.
* I didn’t want to just be a speaker I wanted to speak about the findings of my research.
