Workshop Description for “Experience Now! A Guide to Finding Passion”
“To do good, you actually have to do something.” – Yvon Chouinard. Experience shapes our lives. From these experiences comes passion. But how do you find a passion? Bill’s presentation reveals the relationship among fear, courage and passion in two clear transitions. Transition 1: Learning to see fear as opportunity. Transition 2: working with Bill’s “First Step Philosophy” method on how to take advantage of opportunities and let your experiences grow. Wrapped up in Bill’s hilarious delivery and entertaining stories, his messages allow all to share in the learning and laughter of finding passion in life.
