Russ Talks About High School Success
Anything Is Possible! - Russ' Most Popular Keynote
Your school will be talking about this assembly ALL YEAR LONG when Russ Peak presents this award-winning keynote filled with interactive comedy, mind-boggling mental feats, and a lasting inspirational message. Anything Is Possible! is designed not only to entertain, but to challenge your teens to make positive choices as they figure out who they are... what they want... and how they're going to get there .
"You
can go through life trying to Predict the Future...
Just hoping and
dreaming what might happen tomorrow.
Or you can decide what
you want, make it your goal, and
INVENT THE FUTURE!"
USE YOUR M.I.N.D.
Amidst the laughter and "WOW's", the audience will learn four important steps they can use to help them set effective goals - whatever they may be - as they follow the acronym MIND:
M is for Motivation
What exactly is motivation? Whether it's the person you want to be, the grades you want to get, the college you want to attend, or the score you want on the next big test... Your goals and dreams go nowhere until you DECIDE what you want... make a CHOICE to SUCCEED... and take RESPONSIBILITY to make them come true yourself!
I is for Imagination
Some people think an imagination is just for kids. They're told they have to leave it behind as they become adults. But, in the words of Albert Einstein: "An Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge." When you keep your your mind open... and your imagination strong... you will go places and do things that the person sitting next to you will probably never think of.
N is for Navigation
So you know what you want... now how do you get there? If you were to run a marathon, you'd probably want to know how to get to the finish line before you started running. Once your destination is set, you'll need to map it out... make a plan... and look at your goal like a magic trick and ask "How'd you do that!".
D is for Determination
Russ concludes his program through a
hilarious feat of danger and the story of Dr. Seuss, as he
illustrates determination showing that when you believe in
your dreams and keep on going
- even when things are tough... it doesn't matter
who you are, where you're from, or how much money you have...
or don't have... You can overcome your challenges and
accomplish what some people might call impossible.
"Some
might assume that Russ Peak's presentation as merely being tricks,
but quite the contrary. Russ Peak can captivate an audience
and engage them in an experience that can best be described as
truly magical as he weaves into his presentation a powerful and
motivational message that leaves the audience recharged, ready,
and eager to take on their challenges."
