Best strategy for 2021? Be there for the people you care about.

Best strategy for 2021? Be there for the people you care about.

It’s been a challenging year to say the least. Don’t lose hope because the people you care about need you. Maybe it’s your family, your friends, your colleagues, your clients or a complete stranger? I believe 2021 will be the most amazing year, full of opportunity, discovery & adventure because things are different. And different is good. Different helps us adapt, improve and grow and be the…

How to be unique? (even when you don't feel special)

How to be unique? (even when you don’t feel special)

How to be unique? We had this great question yesterday in our #10xSpeaker group coaching call. Here is an answer that may help you become more unique, differentiated and stand-out from the crowd so that you are noticed and valued for who you are, especially if you don’t feel very special.

Be yourself. It’s the only person you can truly be and the only person no one else can be.

It sounds so…

How I consistently win speaking deals and get 25-100% more than the budget allocation

How I consistently win speaking deals and get 25-100% more than the budget allocation

Here is my secret on how I consistently win speaking deals and get 25-100% more then the budget allocation.

This is how to get higher fees as a keynote speaker while delivering even more value for the event and its participants.

As a speaker, you get approached by an event manager/producer who are considering you as their speaker. The most important thing to do at this stage is LISTEN.

My TED Talk: An unexpected journey...

My TED Talk: An unexpected journey…

It’s interesting where things lead when you start to make conscious choices from your gut and listen to those butterflies in your stomach.

After being invited to keynote for the Dutch Police on July 4, because the National Police Chief watched my TED talk, I had to re-watch it and it gave me goosebumps.

Did you know I prepared and delivered my first TEDx talk on the same day and I was sick in bed…

As a Speaker it’s very important you finish on time. Make it a habit. Your job is to make the event managers life easier not harder. By not finishing on time you cause all sorts of problem for the event manager and become a problem for them. Finish on time whether you are a professional or an amature speaker. I have made it a habit to finish on the second. In my recent speech I finished at 19’40” for a 20’ talk to give room for the credits in the video ;) ... and I did not have a countdown clock. Check out my speech on my YouTube channel and subscribe to see all my keynotes and speaker journey. I will be posting tips and tricks and training material in time to help you present better. Just getting started ;) #speaker #speakers #keynotespeaker #keynotespeakers #eventplanner #eventmanager #eventmanagers #present #presentation #finishontime https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnk8mTBCGjT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2xmmzw9r5cb1

The sh*t that goes through my #mind when #training. When #exercising our bodies, our brains are stimulated by #endorphins that allows it to expand away from the busy and often resisting #conscious mind into the vast realm of the #subconscious where you reach your sole and #universal mind and #connect with #yourself. The most #MeaningfulConnection of all. Are you exercising daily for a #healthy mind and #body? Are you tapping into your subconscious often enough to bring out your #magic that makes you #you? #Remember there is only one of you in this world. You are a #precious and very #scarce #resource and the world need you to be you. Who is 100% responsible for that #choice? Yep... you are. #Like and #share if you feel the same way...
