Life Happens. LIVE IT!!
It takes a strong emotion or moving experience to make a message last. Jake includes a huge dose of both in every single presentation in order to make “can do” a part of everything you say, think, and do. Add more tools to your creative thinking and problem solving box as you learn how to strengthen your mental muscles to find the leader within, create self-confidence, and leap out of the dreaded pity pit. This program will provoke a transition in thinking that can be immediately implemented into your professional and personal life.
Listen in and you will:
· See how excuses are transformed into expectations
· Remove the dream destroying words “can’t do” from their vocabulary
· Learn the FACTS: a strategy to get yourself out or keep from falling into the pity pit
· Internalize that a small change in perspective can make a tremendous difference in outcome
· Understand how to make self talk work for you instead of against you
Jake French is a 2008 graduate of the University of Idaho, and was working as a forester in Oregon when a devastating accident happened. In an instant his life was turned upside down after a spinal cord injury left him a quadriplegic. A stereotypical life in a wheelchair seemed like giving up to Jake, and there was no way he would give in at just 23 years old. His “it is what it is” response initiated a change in mindset and the beginning of a new journey. Committing to a positive attitude opened many doors, and allowed him to turn the worst thing that ever happened to him into one of the best.
Today, Jake is a well-known, sought-after inspirational speaker and author of “Life Happens. Live It!”. As a powerful keynote speaker he now travels the country helping audience members learn how to adapt and overcome life’s unexpected zingers. Jake is a 27-year-old resident of Oregon who is living a new dream. He says, “People learn through experience and emotions. Three years ago my disability was a crushing anchor in my life. I love to walk audience members through the roller coaster it takes to succeed over the enormous hurdles in my life, hoping I can inspire them to overcome their own personal anchors.” Jake’s wheelchair will seem to disappear as the audience comes to realize it is not a limitation for him. In fact, nothing is a limitation for Jake. Even with a serious topic, Jake’s humor and vulnerability will endear audiences to him and create a lasting inspirational experience.
