Back in November 2013 I was asked to be the keynote speaker for the college commencement ceremonies for the YTI Institute in Pennsylvania. The theme of that commencement was “Moving Forward”. I was asked to speak again as the keynote speaker for the May 29, 2014 commencement ceremonies at YTI on the theme “New Beginnings.” In both speeches I drew from personal and business experiences to impart some lessons on succeeding from whatever station in life you are in. I also spoke on early business experiences that forced me to draw on personal core beilefs that still stand firm with me today.
I want to thank Ivan Quinones and Dr. Erin Carlin Ph.D for asking me to speak to these two [2] groups of young adults as they move forward in their new beginnings in life. Below is an excerpt from this most recent speech.
