Cartoon Motivator – insurmountable problems!
By · CommentsImaginary obstacles are insurmountable. Real ones aren’t.
Barbara Sher
Jumping at several small opportunities may get us there more quickly than waiting for one big one to come along. ~Hugh Allen When I look back now over my life and call to mind what I might have had simply for taking and did not take, my heart is like to break. ~William Hale WhiteOpportunity is a bird that never perches. ~Claude McDonald Opportunity is as scarce as oxygen; men fairly breathe it and do not know it. ~Doc Sane Opportunities do not come with their values stamped upon them. ~Maltbie Babcock Nothing is so often irretrievably missed as a daily opportunity. ~Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach
What we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn’t think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.
Arnold Schwarzenegger

By · Comments10. This is my body, and I can do whatever I want to it. I can push it; Study it; Tweak it; Listen to it. Everybody wants to know what I am on. What am I on? I am on my bike busting my ass six hours a day; What are YOU on?
9. Without the illness I would never have been forced to re-evaluate my life and my career. I know if I had not had cancer, I would not have won the Tour de France.

By · CommentsYou’ve got to reject rejection!
Here’s a few of my favourite ‘reject rejection’ quotes…
A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success.
Bo Bennett
Don’t let anyone, or any rejection, keep you from what you want.
Ashley Tisdale
I had immediate success in the sense that I sold something right off the bat. I thought it was going to be a piece of cake and it really wasn’t. I have drawers full of – or I did have – drawers full of rejection slips.
Fred Saberhagen (I can tell you when I first started cartooning I didn’t sell anything ‘right off the bat’ it took me months and months to sell my first cartoon – but I worked on my craft in those months until my ideas/artwork were acceptable. I became much stronger as a person as well!)
Practice, practice, practice until you eventually get numb on rejections – reject rejection!
Let me know how you ‘reject rejection!?

Seminar, Workshop and Event Cartooning!
By · CommentsSeminar, Workshop and Event Cartooning!
A Unique Way to Preserve the Memorable Events How many special events have you attended in your life? I’ve been to weddings and anniversaries, and birthdays galore. And, how are they often remembered? Mostly with photos and video, right? Well, I’ve always found cartoons to be an effective and simple (and great!) way to preserve a special memory or occasion. Also, if you went to a seminar or some sort of training session, I can do cartoons that will highlight certain points or aspects of it. The cartoons can be a permanent reminder of the day – whatever the event. I can design cartoons for you, or you can give me specific ideas for original and high impacting ideas. It’s said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, it’s been my experience that a cartoon is worth double that. As a cartoonist, I can come to your party/seminar (whatever the event is) and create one-off unique cartoons for you.
Seminar, Workshop and Event Cartooning!
If it’s a training seminar of some kind, the cartoons can help to accent your main points and ideas. If party is for someone’s birthday, I can do up a great cartoon to commemorate them (maybe with a touch of humor!). In the case of a wedding or anniversary, I can create a lovely image to help preserve the memories of the day. It’s been my experience, that simple cartoons are very effective for businesses and organizations. They create a unique and easy way of highlighting certain parts of an event or speech. Plus, I can create as many paper copies as you need. They’re great for daily reminders. Also, by sending your staff electronic copies of the cartoons, they’re a great way to remind people of ideas that were raised or important dates for future engagements. I focus on clean, inspirational and motivational cartoons. You don’t have to worry that my images might offend someone. They are sure to please everyone attending, as well as make your seminar stand out against all the other ho-hum events your guests may have been to before. After all, think about it, how many events have you gone to where they handed out cartoons? You want to give your guests something different to make your event stand out and be remembered? Well, with my creative and unique event cartooning, you can do just that.
