Lord Stanley, Lord Stanley, Bring Me the Brandy (and Get Me Motivated)!

before I get to the Main purpose of today's post, I would like to presentt you with a gift-wrapped version of my Stanley Cup Concept as visible below.

Cleaned-up logos are the highlight of the concept.
Anyway, yesterday was an all day (nine hour) "business" seminar by the name of Get Motivated. They traveled to the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York. each venue the seminar goes to, different guests are invited to speak. Names like Gen. Colin Powell, Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and others (many from three years ago returned to yesterday's showing. Among the original line-up for yesterday was - in no order - Stephen MR Covey (returnee), Bill Cosby, Joe Montana (returnee), Steve Forbes (returnee), Randi Zuckerberg, Steve Wozniak, Marv Levy, Krish Dhanam (returnee), and Marcus Luttrell. Bill O'Reilly of FOX News' "The O'Reilly Factor" was added after the initial line-up was announced.

The line-up eventually wound up being Stephen MR Covey on success (NY Times best-selling author), Joe Montana on excellence (NFL MVP and Super Bowl winner), Steve Forbes on business strategy (billionaire media mogul), Krish Dhanam (top sales training expert) on sales and negotiation, Phil Town on investment strategy (returnee/late addition), Marcus Luttrell on perseverance (Navy SEAL), Bill Cosby on motivation (comedian and public figure), James Smith on finance (returnee/late addition), Steve Wozniak on innovation (co-founder of Apple), Adam Markel on empowerment (entrepreneur and attorney), and Marv Levy on teamwork (professional football coach).

Randi Zuckerberg did not show and due to weather conditions in New York City, Bill O'Reilly could not give his talk on communication. he did however have this to say:
