“Simon “fleshed out” a process that has been around for some time but also offered a very practical approach to how to use it!”
Christopher Boon
“I didn’t expect that you would speak my language. Thank you. It had ‘Deep Thinking’ – I’ve been working to improve my process and now I have some more changes.”
Rachel Novak
Broad River
“Discovered I’m getting my needs meet from anyone/thing but myself. I liked the unmet need concept, doing vs being, automated hiring system and the creating content on LinkedIn.”

Joshua Tomeoni

“Great summary of all the motivational information out there.”
Robert Barnard

Michelle Dreug
IHF
“I was very satisfied with the speaker breaking down the business plan concept along with pointing out the obvious – “delegate and let go” as we are all doing too much busy work. I really appreciate the motivation to action which is necessary in being successful. It is nice to know there is a process to help with my behavioral characteristics that tend to hold my back.”
Brian C. Poppa
Jones & Associates
“I liked the idea to think about your plan and put it in writing. Plus the value structure for advisors and the need to have a plan so you can satisfy clients unmet needs.”

Damon Winter
On Mark Asset Management LLC
“I liked the picture created regarding the problem of the back seat driver, what is the significance of the why it occurs. It had a richness of exploring the implications of unmet needs on my business, and the impact of exploring this on living life fully.”
Beulah Hess-Yodee
