Without determination we are more likely to sit on the side lines and watch others succeed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Have you ever heard folks who say something like &amp;quot;Why does she always get the breaks?&amp;quot; Well let me say - to a large extent we make our own breaks. And determination to succeed is one of the most valuable assets.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;When I found &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Hall&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree.com&lt;/a&gt; I had several questions – because I wanted to check out the credentials. And. of course, &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel&lt;/a&gt; needed to check me out too.

And over the time that I have been cruise speaking my talks have developed and grown - in both number and quality.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I watch other speakers and learn from them. And not just the excellent speakers! Many poor speakers have something to teach us - often how not to tackle the task, but sometimes with little gems of good ideas sprinkled within their presentations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;What I learn in my cruise lecturing I apply in my key note talks - and vice versa. Life is a journey - and why would we go on a journey if we don't plan to take anything from the journey. One passenger on a recent Silversea cruise who had seen me before on Celebrity told me how much he enjoyed one of my talks second time through - and how much he valued the way it had grown since the first time (which he had also rated very well).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;While you are speaking on free cruises - and before and after - keep your eyes and ears open for new ideas that can help you to develop your style and your content.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;And if you are not already cruising &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; contact &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Daniel&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Hall&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; at &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.

Even in this digital age, where the key could be a pin number or an iris scan, if it is nor correct the door will not open.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Several years ago, sitting in the theatre on a Celebrity cruise ship Kathy and I listened to an excellent lecturer. &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-czy91PctJJc/TszlBWVe7vI/AAAAAAAAAS0/4dBLCEY0p18/s1600-h/Professional%252520photos%252520Alaska%252520cruise%252520206%252520007%25255B2%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Professional photos Alaska cruise 206 007" border="0" alt="Professional photos Alaska cruise 206 007" align="right" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-ke3usjZhYto/TszlCQ34VCI/AAAAAAAAAS8/5NdxCuySOhs/Professional%252520photos%252520Alaska%252520cruise%252520206%252520007_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" height="244" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Over the years, on board various cruise lines we've seen lots of average cruise speakers, a few very poor speakers and a handful of great ones - like that man. As we left that theatre, simultaneously we said something along the lines of &amp;quot;We can do that!&amp;quot;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;But where to find the key?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I did a lot of research, spoke to a few cruise line contacts and agents. The message seemed to be - &amp;quot;Pay an agent $50 to $70 a day to get booked&amp;quot;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Well I don't give in that easily!! I kept at it and found &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;HALL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; at &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;He has introduced us to most of the major cruise lines - because he has seen our work, had great feedback and trusts us to deliver. This year alone Kathy and I have cruised across the South Pacific, twice across the Atlantic and are now cruising (free of course) with 6 star cruise lines, where we are treated like royalty.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;If you want to find the key contact &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;HALL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; now at &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; to see if you are one of the people that the cruise lines are looking for.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Click &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;HERE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;NOW&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; to find out more.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising - &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

Now, while we are not badly off, we did not want to spend our hard gotten capital on living the highlife. So we went on a hunt. And we found the perfect way to travel the world in 5 and 6 star luxury, eating wonderful food and sipping cocktails; watching West End shows and visiting great ports of call. We &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE!!&lt;/a&gt; Really!

I’ve met cruise speakers who moan the whole cruise about the lack of interest shown by the cruise team – ignoring the fact that the speaker is often the least of their problems when they have prissey entertainers, high expectation passengers, a demanding boss and even the odd emergency to deal with.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-KPhQD6Fd7hU/TmTN34XmvDI/AAAAAAAAAQU/NVHLhlrO23I/s1600-h/Papeete%252520April%25252023%2525202011%252520%25252810%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Papeete April 23 2011 (10)" border="0" alt="Papeete April 23 2011 (10)" align="left" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-1KqLgQei_J0/TmTN5O_k_HI/AAAAAAAAAQY/5godq18s3lE/Papeete%252520April%25252023%2525202011%252520%25252810%252529_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Our job is to get out there for an hour a day on sea days and provide an entertaining and enlightening diversion for the passengers – one that the cruise director doesn’t have to worry about. And having done that little thing, the rest of the task is to sit back, sip cocktails, watch the great shows, enjoy great service and food and explore fascinating ports. Oh and watch and learn from some other great speakers. Do that and you have achieved success.&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-efbSy4KLsaA/TmTN5qGQc0I/AAAAAAAAAQc/CGAMU1ylIXc/s1600-h/UP%252520QR%252520Codes%25255B2%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="UP QR Codes" border="0" alt="UP QR Codes" align="right" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-sPqLx9nHLm0/TmTN6Y8lz0I/AAAAAAAAAQg/PVLNJO7m1qc/UP%252520QR%252520Codes_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="185" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;And of course all that comes free, because we speakers &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; thanks to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HALL&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.com"&gt;.com&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;If you are not already &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISING&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; now to find out more.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; (of course!)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

We live in sunny Spain and many of our neighbors head for local beaches – or even to cooler northern climes. In winter they may go to the Canary Islands or the Spanish Caribbean. Or they may seek out the culture of Europe’s many cities.&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-P6tDX2CG4b8/Tkjgeql1N-I/AAAAAAAAAP8/l1FWjPvrxpk/s1600-h/barcelona_sightseeing%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="barcelona_sightseeing" border="0" alt="barcelona_sightseeing" align="right" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-oCGzr1jnZ00/TkjgfVGWZQI/AAAAAAAAAQA/FcjwYnts3K0/barcelona_sightseeing_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;They are often amazed by our vacation plans. Not surprising really. A number of other expats enjoy cruising. Often a couple, or even more a year. But of course, even with the best deals around, they end up paying far more than we do.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Kathy and I &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruise&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt; thanks to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Hall&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Com.&lt;/a&gt; And how good is that!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Well let me tell you – we cruise several times a year. And we really do &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruise&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I’m just putting the finishing touches to my talks for a “six star” standard cruise in a few weeks time. We haven’t had to save for months (or years!) we don’t have to go into the red, and we don’t have to trim back on the rest of our lives.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;We just get out there and &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruise&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Daniel&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt; will&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font size="3"&gt; tell you that I was sceptical at first. I doubted the claim that we could &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruise&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;I was wrong.

So, with their agreement, we are flying into the departure port the day before and paying ourselves for an overnight hotel.

Choose your goal – maybe a dream that you have always harbored secretly. Perhaps your goal will be cruising free? &lt;img style="display: inline; float: right" align="right" src="http://thestrategyguysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/the-thinker.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;2. On a scale of 1 to 5 choose where you are now – where 1 is nowhere just yet and 5 means that this goal is in every fiber of your being – night and day.&amp;#160; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;3. Make a list of the steps you need to achieve along the way to move from the score you have now to reach a 5. Go right back to basics and note what your achievement will be when you know that you have progressed one point on the scale. And list all these steps along the way.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;So for example – 1 is deciding that I want to cruise free; 2 is clicking the link to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree.Com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;; 3 is signing up with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree.Com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;; 4 is preparing your proposal to the cruise companies and 5 is taking your first free cruise with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree.Com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;#160; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;4. Now look at you and identify how you will have to change to meet those goals. What are your personal milestones.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff"&gt;For example – 1 is really wanting to travel the world’s seas on free cruises; 2 is actually doing something about it instead of just dreaming; 3 is making a commitment to myself to join the cruisers who travel free with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SpeakersCruiseFree.Com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;; 4 is devoting just a few hours to really understand the process and follow the simple steps that &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Daniel&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Hall&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; will show you and 5 is packing your case ready to go on your first free cruise.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;So there it is.

My independence started when I left the corporate world and started earning for myself.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Then I had the good fortune to find &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Hall&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Speakers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Cruise&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Free&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;com.&lt;/a&gt; Because with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel&lt;/a&gt; came a whole new independence -&amp;#160; the freedom to travel the world, in the height of luxury, on board magnificent grand cruise ships. And the best part is that the cruises are FREE! Yes I do mean FREE.&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-QwRaeOuTpjw/ThMDuEbQj1I/AAAAAAAAAPU/nTMlAtLCUOQ/s1600-h/Andrew_Kathy_Prinsendam%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Andrew &amp;amp; Kathy Johnson" border="0" alt="Andrew &amp;amp; Kathy Johnson" align="right" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-WbLjsvPgF8U/ThMDvBBz26I/AAAAAAAAAPY/FIzwhLISwyo/Andrew_Kathy_Prinsendam_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="363" height="285" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Are you already cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt;?

I want them to invite me back – and I want to leave a good impression to reflect well on all the rest of you in this &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruising&lt;/a&gt; network of ours. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;So I did my homework. I listened to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Daniel’s&lt;/a&gt; advice (I always do). I checked with the enrichment officer at the line’s HQ to see if they have a preferred or (mandatory!) style for PowerPoint presentations, and what else they expect of their speakers. Some have very clear guidelines. So it’s always important to check. &lt;img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-winkingsmile" alt="Winking smile" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TdF6kmfsvgI/AAAAAAAAAPI/zqg6YHZ5kLk/wlEmoticon-winkingsmile%5B2%5D.png?imgmax=800" /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I have a good reputation. &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Speakers&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Cruise&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Free&lt;/a&gt; has a good reputation. Every time any one of us cruises &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt; the reputation of the rest of us depends on how well we do.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I intend to do well – for my sake – and for yours!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;To find out more about &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;cruising&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;free&lt;/a&gt; click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE,&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

We&amp;#160; have spent the last wonderful week touring the islands of Hawaii. So, apart from Seattle we have already had all our port days.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;This posed a scheduling problem for the destination talks. So we agreed to present Pacific islands relevant talks on port days and have them run on the ship’s stateroom TV system.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;To make that work well I re-jigged a number of &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TcXsI6o5n8I/AAAAAAAAAOw/XPPo2FLwSx0/s1600-h/Honolulu-24.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Honolulu 2" border="0" alt="Honolulu 2" align="right" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TcXsMQdpc2I/AAAAAAAAAO0/Lko2-bAnY1o/Honolulu-2_thumb1.jpg?imgmax=800" width="203" height="162" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;my images and added more bullet points.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;The feedback has been outstanding!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Flexibility – that and knowing your subject are the keys to good preparation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Are you already cruising free the &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Speakers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Cruise&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Free&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;com&lt;/a&gt; way?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;If not – click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; NOW! &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising – &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;Free!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#0000ff" size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

Eighteen days in the Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean, Tasman Sea, and Atlantic -- into ports that are as exotic in person as they are in travel brochures. Through the fiord-like sounds of New Zealand where the mountains run right down into the sea - and visits to remote Maori village to see the people who seemed so strange and far away in the movie Whale Rider. And -- And -- And -- being treated as a celebrity all over the magnificent Rhapsody of the Seas and where ever we made a chance encounter with cruisers in the ports. Thanks to Daniel and the wonderful staff at Speakers Cruise Free and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

We needed only one cabin,&amp;#160; meaning that the cruise companies had an extra revenue earning cabin to put on sale.&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TWtgTB2HlOI/AAAAAAAAANk/s-cV4vKg0WU/s1600-h/Atlantic%20Dolphins%5B2%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Atlantic Dolphins" border="0" alt="Atlantic Dolphins" align="right" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TWtgTvLl9LI/AAAAAAAAANo/N7QcQkFLk2o/Atlantic%20Dolphins_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="153" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;This was a sweet deal for them and it really got us established as able and popular &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Now that we are both established we no longer both need to work.

So just 3 or 4 times a cruise is typical.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;As I was saying – now that we are established we no longer both need to work. Typically now we travel on my “ticket”.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;So Kathy’s gift to me is some of the research on my topics and to find new royalty free images for my PowerPoint presentations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;And my gift to Kathy is to prepare outstanding talks – and of course the free cruise that results.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;What a gift!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;If you are not already signed up to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;COM&lt;/a&gt; click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; now!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising – &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

At the welcome on board meeting I hand over some small gift to our contact and usually it becomes a talking point throughout the cruise. I’ve seen our coffee mug or fridge magnet prominently displayed in the cruise staff office.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And it gets remembered. I have occasionally sent a signed copy of one of my books to the Cruise Director and to the Captain. We’ve been invited to the bridge, to the Captain’s table for dinner, to exclusive cocktail parties (make sure you have your best dinner suit with you!). And on&amp;#160; one ship the Captain who we had met on an earlier cruise on another ship noticed my name and mentioned me in his welcome on board address, encouraging passengers to come to my talks, which he “always thoroughly enjoyed”.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;It costs so little to make an impact.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Are you &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com"&gt;CRUISING&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; yet?

Yes! Yes! I know – it may sound like a calumny. But even with the founder’s very best effort not everything can be verified.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TV1F1QR52vI/AAAAAAAAANY/rYV_pEzdWXg/s1600-h/P7280157%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P7280157" border="0" alt="P7280157" align="right" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TV1F2Mv5LsI/AAAAAAAAANc/iy-Ypwc3xIg/P7280157_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="184" height="244" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I only say this because I know that some speakers have been tempted to work word for word from a single source. Whatever your source, do check – unless you truly are the expert to whom everyone else would turn for the most reliable version.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Check a few different sources. Make sure it stacks up. There could be little more embarrassing than finding out that folks in the audience don’t just know more than you – but consider you a fraud.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;I once saw a cruise speaker tie himself in knots following a question from one of the audience who clearly knew far more about the Counts of Barcelona than he did. Why pretend to be an expert if you are not. He could easily have chosen so many other Catalan topics where safe and reliable facts are easily available.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;At &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE.&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;COM&lt;/a&gt; we are part of a very strong network.

On Tuesday evening we were hosting a superb dinner party here and I popped into my office to check the diary. As I did so an email came in from the contact there offering me any of 3 amazing itineraries. And – get this – air, gratuities and on-board drinks are included! Plus discounts on other purchases on board.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;We selected the one that we could make and I already have the contract and air travel details. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;So naturally I thanked them for remembering me, to be told that with such an impressive presentation, DVD and follow up he knew he was onto a good thing!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;The presentation is based on the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HALL&lt;/a&gt; model at &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free.www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;COM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; I just personalised it and followed through.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Thank you &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;If you are not already cruising for &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; then click &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;HERE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;NOW&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy cruising --- &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;!!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Andrew&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

We found out how fast these one-time producing trees grow, why the banana flower is cut off as the fruit begins to develop, how growers keep the top bunch of bananas from ripening before those lower are ready to pick, and most amazingly, how they know when to pick the green bananas so they'll be ready to eat just when they hit the grocery store shelves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Years ago when I was involved with a significant ground tour of a small country in S.E. Asia, we picked green bananas and couldn't understand why they never ripened. Well, duh, we didn't know the exact number of days from initial growth to ripening. If we had carried the bananas long enough in our back packs, they would have turned yellow and attracted fruit flies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're looking for topic ideas, you might consider researching the agricultural products of your destinations. An entire program could be developed from the Wiki page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get in touch with Daniel Hall today to find out how Speakers Cruise Free.&lt;object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-9f639d1948878162" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v14.nonxt7.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D9f639d1948878162%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330147926%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D764EF7A395DF7374E28F78496CD3653E32329032.4018CF14135813BA3C25B5A1E019AB6D68D0CD5A%26key%3Dck1&amp;amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D9f639d1948878162%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DhcAlqo3ACpBDALI98SgIslDrN48&amp;amp;autoplay=0&amp;amp;ps=blogger"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v14.nonxt7.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D9f639d1948878162%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330147926%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D764EF7A395DF7374E28F78496CD3653E32329032.4018CF14135813BA3C25B5A1E019AB6D68D0CD5A%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D9f639d1948878162%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DhcAlqo3ACpBDALI98SgIslDrN48&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

One of her expectations was that her publisher would place her book in retail stores nationwide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It never happened... even after multiple requests and extensive poking and prodding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Elaine did not give up.  She took matters into her own hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But because there was little in the way of resources for authors who wanted to sell their books through retailers, Elaine resorted to trial and error and more trial until she figured out how to get any good book into retail stores across the country (even print on demand books).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's when Elaine realized that other authors surely faced the same problem and she decided to create an extensive training program designed specifically for both self-published and trade-published authors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although most of the RFBD program is Elaine's work product (and excellent quality I may  add - you can certainly see her PhD talents in play) I have included&lt;br /&gt;a few modules myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In any event, you don't want to miss this excellent webinar where Elaine and I take you through the exact steps for writing emails that get retail outlet buyers to buy your book.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get your place here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/458207921"&gt;https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/458207921&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Details -&lt;br /&gt;Tue, Jan 18, 2011 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM CST&lt;br /&gt;(1pm EST, 11am MST, 10am PST)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, of course, we will make an offer for the RFBD program but only after we fully deliver on our promise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether you intend to invest in RFBD or not you do not want to miss this great webinar.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

We realised that what the cruise companies need is variety, to relate to their very varied passenger profiles.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I greatly admire the wisdom and experience of the great speakers that I’ve had the privilege to travel with – and I also welcome the enthusiasm and fresh thinking of younger speakers. My point is that in the world of cruise speaking there is space – and a genuine welcome – for speakers of all ages, profiles and backgrounds.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TRoX7Nar8OI/AAAAAAAAAMc/rZCuHsIVO1s/s1600-h/image%5B3%5D.png"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" align="left" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TRoX8G14XgI/AAAAAAAAAMg/YXkfqnlATmA/image_thumb%5B1%5D.png?imgmax=800" width="332" height="173" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Got a good story to share in an informative and confident way?

I’ve just had feedback from a recent cruise, in which the activities manager reported “outstanding use of technology”!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Apparently the fact that I have insert video clips in my PowerPoint presentations is a bit “cutting edge”.

As I use a wireless hand held slide changer it may look good to the audience – but it seems even the staff were impressed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Well I learned to keep upping my game. I’ve done it all my business life, I’ve encouraged folks I mentor to do the same – and one of the reasons that I warmed so quickly to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;DANIEL&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HALL &lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; was the obviously natural style of his innovation – and the expectation that we, his network, will constantly strive to improve.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;So if you are an improver and yet you’re still not cruising free do yourself a favour – NOW – and click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; to join us cruising the seven seas for free with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;CRUISE&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;What have you got to loose?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; now!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Happy cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Andrew&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

I had 5 talks with 80 to 90 slides in each!!! And I had two days to pack, put business on hold and re-format all my presentations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TNfxSbMtLvI/AAAAAAAAALY/8yzIFrIfoTU/s1600-h/blue_caves_anti_paxos%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px 21px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="blue_caves_anti_paxos" border="0" alt="blue_caves_anti_paxos" align="left" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TNfxThKt6CI/AAAAAAAAALc/VhoIDwPSrzA/blue_caves_anti_paxos_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184" /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;So my tip for today – always check in plenty of time if the cruise line you are speaking for has any special requirements – such as a corporate template for you slides. That way you’ll have plenty of time to comply!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;And if you are not already cruising &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; with &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; then I suggest you get yourself signed up &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;NOW&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; to get your &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; cruise vacations planned soonest.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;Happy &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt; cruising with &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Verdana"&gt;.

Just as your behavior reflects on me and everyone else.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE&lt;/a&gt; Is a real find. So I try to do the right thing to build up the reputation of all our speakers. If I behave well and say “thank you” I hope that you will get a warm reception next time you step on the same ship for a speaker cruise.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I hope that you will show the rest of us the same respect.&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TMvPrBTaepI/AAAAAAAAALM/Mh-SzB396Cs/s1600-h/DSCF0205%5B2%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="DSCF0205" border="0" alt="DSCF0205" align="right" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TMvPruiOV3I/AAAAAAAAALQ/7kwMQjY-TxQ/DSCF0205_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And it is amazing just how far a little courtesy can go. We have had invitations to cocktail parties and even occasionally to the Captain’s table, because we are seen to show respect.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you are not already cruising free I suggest you click&amp;#160; &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; – and do it now. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And next time you are cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; do please remember to say “thank you”. &lt;img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-left-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TMvPsIDQ97I/AAAAAAAAALU/1J3fe4Kptk0/wlEmoticon-smile%5B2%5D.png?imgmax=800" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

I'm not worthy"!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We cruise free through Daniel Hall's great network scheme &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM&lt;/a&gt; and I know that this lady would be a very popular speaker. She has great stories to tell and is just so informative. It reminded me of what Marianne Williamson said in her book A Return to Love, published in 1992 -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us. We ask ourselves "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that others won't feel insecure around you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"We are all meant to shine, as children do. .... As we let our own light shine, we subconciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TKnjBFG0l6I/AAAAAAAAAK0/YQ1WxIgqCzY/s1600/Liberate.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;I'll do my best to liberate others by demonstrating that I allow myself to be liberated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Liberate yourself now to cruise the world's waters for &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; by joining the &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM&lt;/a&gt; network of speakers and friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Click &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; to find out more&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy cruising &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Andrew&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--

And we had some great cruises.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;But over the years we've become a little pickier. Thanks to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TJceRamkX8I/AAAAAAAAAKk/LLEXVwT-FGM/s1600/Florence_reflected_in_the_river.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5518913152913530818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_5huHoS74eVo/TJceRamkX8I/AAAAAAAAAKk/LLEXVwT-FGM/s320/Florence_reflected_in_the_river.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;KERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM&lt;/a&gt; we have cruised all around the world - and all of it has been &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt;! We have had some wonderful experiences, many unexpected. We have dined with several captains, been invited onto the bridge for sail aways, entertained by cruise directors, thanked by enrichment coordinators, and (best of all) invited back over and over.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now we choose where we want to go next and get our requests in early.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Our main cruises for next year are already booked, based mainly on a series of re-positioning cruises that form the major legs of a 2 month round the world trip to mark a "big" birthday. And guess what! The cruises are &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; thanks to &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPREAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you haven't booked your &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;FREE&lt;/a&gt; cruise(s) yet for next year, do yourselves and the cruise lines a favor and get on with it. Don't worry. You won't upset us. We're already booked. :-)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And if you're not signed up yet with &lt;a href="http://www.cruiseimprove.com/free"&gt;SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM&lt;/a&gt; do it now and get planning.
