KEYNOTE PRESENTATION

Surviving & Thriving in the Face of Adversity™

Prepare to be inspired, moved to tears, and touched by the power of the human spirit. In this presentation, Scott immerses his audience in the challenges and obstacles that we all face in our lives and how we normally respond to these speed bumps along our journeys. We can choose to react differently, more positively, and actually gain momentum in our lives from these tests of fortitude. The key to embracing adversity, not always overcoming it, is hidden within us. Let's unveil this power and free ourselves from our mind's limitations!

During this emotional and motivational presentation, Scott will identify various stories of courage under fire, failures turned into successes, and many miracles that life continues to deliver our world. He will share his own personal tragedies and triumphs that have taken him to the depths of depression and thoughts of suicide to the peaks of perseverance and states of bliss. From the moment the presentation begins, the audience will begin to examine their own lives and search their souls for answers to questions they never would have dared to ask. A newfound understanding will be evoked that will cause the audience to view pain and suffering in a whole new light. They will be empowered to take full responsibility for bringing illness, injury, disease, or any other type of adversity into their lives and develop more focus for healing the emotional, spiritual, and sometimes the physical wounds. Imagine thinking as adversity as a "blessing in disguise?" It is possible as long as one is open, honest, courageous, and patient.

A prescription for addressing and healing one's mental, physical, and emotional wounds from adversity will be shared that will include the following:

• Honoring Your Power to Choose
• Owning Your Adversity
• Managing Change
• Determine Adversity's Purpose in Your Life
• Evaluate Adversity's Pros & Cons
• Why This?, Why Now?, & What's Next?
• Developing and Living with an Attitude of Gratitude
