"The pursuit of happyness is worth pursuing, it will help 
you get the most out of life." 
 
-- Paul Lawrence Vann 
 
I recently delivered a speech to an enthusiastic audience 
in Toronto, Canada in spupport of the Health & Safety 
Canada 2007, IAPA Tradeshow and Convention. 
 
Not only did I thoroughly enjoy the audience, I also 
delivered my best speech, "Diversity - Inclusion Improves 
Your Organization's Bottom Line." 
 
That's just half the story, I also listened to the keynote 
address presented by Chris Gardner, of the movie fame, "The 
Pursuit of Happyness. Chris gave a dynamic speech and it 
was certainly standing room only. 
 
After his electric presentation I got in line and he 
autographed his book for me and we chatted for a minute and 
took a picture together. Why was this an important moment 
for me? 
 
Glad you asked. It was an important moment for me because I 
had the opportunity to meet someone who had confronted the 
obstacles and quicksand of life and overcame it. 
 
Today, Chris Garnder is living the American Dream, 
however many people are living the nightmare associated 
with poverty and lack of opportunity in America. 
 
The Pursuit of Happyness is a great model to follow in that 
is teaches life lessons at the raw level which happens to 
be poverty and homelessness. I highly recommend you read 
the book and see the movie and I encourage you to help 
those who cannot help themselves, it will make your life 
even better.
