Well Mike we are still
talking
about you!! Your talk was indeed 'very impressive'. It is so healing to
laugh!
I also liked the way you weaved one story into another and how you
fostered
audience participation. It was great too having dinner with you and the
'gang'
and witnessing how great it is to love what you do!

"Mike, just a note to thank you for a
wonderful
entertaining evening and sharing your knowledge and experiences with
us.
Over my 25 years' experience of selling real estate and attending
numerous
conferences/sessions, etc., throughout Ontario and Canada, I have
attended
many motivational sessions. Listening to you sharing your life
experiences
and speaking from your heart was not only inspirational, but soothing
to all
of us. I had a chat with my broker this morning and he said
he
reflected on your information all the way home last night and on his
way to
the office this morning. The time flew by and I hope you noticed
there
was total silence throughout. Ending the evening with your music
is
a wonderful way to wrap it up; I just wished you would have sang more
songs.
Thanks again Mike and good luck with all your future endeavours."
