Have you ever felt like you are on a sinking ship with no control over the future? This book will teach you how to take control of your life, get your priorities straight, put your family first, use the gifts that you have been given and take a long hard look at yourself in the mirror. Using stories of my life as an only child, a single Dad of three boys, as a school principal and now as a Grampa, I can teach you how to not only survive, but thrive. This book includes useful tips on how to deal with difficult people, how to deal with stress, how to manage change and more. While the Titanic is a metaphor for the book, I am convinced that some people enjoy being miserable so much that they actually aim at icebergs, hit them and then complain about the weather as they sink. You can stay motivated on the deck of the Titanic and this book will show you how. For over 26 years, Norm Bossio has spoken publicly in front of over 2.5 million audience members in venues ranging from an American Indian Village Tribunal to the Hoosier Dome. Norm once spoke to 400 high school students, 50 lingerie salespeople, and 45 nuclear physicists...... all in the same day. Having keynoted national conferences in virtually every major industry, Norm's audiences have included clients ranging from Bill Clinton to Stephen King. Prior to founding Norm Bossio Enterprises, he served for 23 years as a teacher, principal and superintendent of schools. For eight years, Norm was an adjunct faculty member and consultant to the management certificate program at Stonehill College. He received his BS from Springfield College and M. Ed. from Boston State College. In 2006, Norm hosted the national public television special, "Staying Motivated on the Deck of the Titanic with Norm Bossio." In 1994, Norm was named Speaker of the Year by the Yankee Chapter of Meeting Planners International.

Motivated!,
This review is from: How to Stay Motivated on the Deck of the Titanic (Paperback)
I bought this book for my daughter who had heard Norm speak in RI. She was very impressed and wanted the book. She read it and refers to it often in her work with troubled youth in an educational setting.

This review is from: How to Stay Motivated on the Deck of the Titanic (Paperback)
It was a look into mistakes we have all made and hopefully learned from. Made me look at the way I see myself thur someone else's eyes. I could relate to many of the stories this author mentioned. It held my interest and made me laugh. At times it made me think, that was so simple why did I not see this. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others. And I also found it to be like an autobiography of the author. With that knowledge made me see if he can succeed at what he does, than so can I....and that was the purpose of the book to show you anyone can be motivated.

Just purchased this book. Heard this wonderful, inspirational speaker at Boston College Orientation. Funny, funny speaker who can bring an audience to tears in seconds. Can't wait to read his book. If he has a dvd buy it.....I will never forget the hour I heard him speak from his experiences and how he is a passionate, real, inspirational human being!
