The Last Year of My Life
Imagine if we all lived our lives knowing this is it…..How would we live.
Last week, I was involved in head-on collision and I am lucky to be alive. I am at peace with myself, and content with my life. I have taken 7 days off of work to recuperate. In that time, I had time to reflect on what my life can be like, if I choose it.
For the past several years, I have launched hundreds of mini websites, looking for a way to express my vision and desire to inspire people and make a difference. The funny thing was, I was trying to please so many people, that I forgot about what I want. And once I made the choice to make it about me, everything fell into place. Within us all, we have a way of being that is unique, honor it, connect with it, express it, and you can change the world.
The Last Year of My Life (My List)
1) I want to meet new people every day and have intentional conversations that were deep and meaningful.
2) I want to have fun doing everything.
3) I want to be of service, and feel a connection to life experiences, as they occur.
4) People surprise and touch my heart, and leave an imprint that forever makes life more interesting.
5) Every day, I am creative, writing, and dreaming of new ways to inspire people, and make life fun.
6) I am bold and do not let fear stop me from the things I want to create, and accomplish.
7) I want to support men, women, and children, inspire them to live the life they desire. Be comfortable, revealing their true selves….tell me what life is like for you?
8) I want to create fun social activities to make a difference, that leave people transformed by the experience.
9) I want to use my recruiting talent to help women fund and gift extraordinary life, sports, and travel experiences.
10) I am grateful, I am present, I am mindful….that every day and everyone matters.
What if everyone took account of their choices, their way of being, their words, their feelings, their care, compassion, and love of humanity….What would relationships, community, and the world would look like….
How would you live the last year of your life?

How to Inspire Rockstars? Reward Them
In 1906, a famous Italian engineer, sociologist, economist, political scientist and philosopher, made an important discovery and revelation about the distribution of effort versus result, that forever changed the course of microeconomics; the Pareto Principle (the 80/20 rule).
….Imagine if 20% of the population of every city in America…..and the world was a rockstar in life…….Everyone Would Enjoy Life + Make a Difference.”Those who lead and serve selflessly, inspire others to do the same….are rockstars.” In fact, we are all rockstars, its how we choose to live today, and everyday that dictates how big or small our impact will be.

In July 2000, I started to think about how I could use recruiting to make life great for others…….It is 2013…….and I have come up with a fun solution….Recruiting Rewards Rockstars Travel……..I am grateful for all the people who have made great efforts to mentor, transform, and inspire me to serve rockstars in life. These include; MDI (a nonprofit organization that empowers men to be leaders in life), TuesdayNights.org founders Justine Lassoff and Melinda Moore, iShopforGood.com Lori Shapiro, Infinite Safari Adventures Alan Feldstein, Memorable Moments Travel Gwiin Correa, Cruises By Dave (Dave Fowlie), mom, dad, sisters, and lastly my inspirational red dragon Robin, who in the last year has taught me more about being a rockstar in life.
Richard, thank you for writing and sharing your autobiography, and living your truth. Losing My Virginity. Last week, I met a man who works for you at Virgin America and he was enamored and grateful to work at Virgin. Someday soon, I hope to make your acquaintance and thank you in person, for making my work happy and life great.

How to Inspire Rockstars? Reward Them. We are fortunate to live in a nation where freedom of speech is an undeniable right. The future of the nation will depend on our ability to develop, inspire, and support caring and serving leaders…….Rockstars in life; these are women, men, and children who exhibit extraordinary abilities to serve others. They live to make life great for their family, friends, and community at large.
If we learned anything about the economic meltdown, the smartest people, from the best schools, forgot to use their hearts to guide their integrity and serve the community with good intentions. Doing good in school is not a determinant that you will make the right choices for the greater good. So we are inspiring people to reward rockstar employees, parents, students, teachers, and volunteers, who will guide future generations for good.
So how do we reward rockstars? By empowering them to live great lives; gifting them with opportunities to experience and express themselves fully. Rockstars will permeate, mentor, and lead others by example. How about reward travel…….
There is no greater sense of urgency and purpose in my life than to inspire and reward rockstars. Inspiration is half the battle, the other is taking a risk and doing things people said could not be done. I transformed my recruiting agency into a co+op to inspire, reward, and serve rockstars; so that they make a difference with their family, friends, and community.
If you would like to reward your rockstars; parents, employees, teachers, students, neighbors, cops, politicians, kids, and granny too; Join Our Social Co+Op Rewarding Rockstars. We reward human friends and happy pets with global travel, shopping retreats, empowering people to create their own adventure or their travel reward program to give back to their community rockstars.
Do you know or want to recognize a rockstar in your life? Reward them, thank them, and acknowledge them. And by doing so you are a rockstar!

Inspiring Rockstars Make Life Great
Inspiring Rockstars Make Life Great. You are a fortunate person when someone in your life cares about making your life great. They are passionate about being on fire…..
Qualities of a rockstar are hard to miss, and great to learn and imitate. We can all learn about being a rockstar, by serving others. Have you seen little kids play in a playground? There is always one or two kids who are always thinking of dynamic ways to make it more fun, and sometimes fun and outrages.
Case in point, I recently went over my sister’s house to celebrate my birthday. My niece is a rockstar, she is a precocious athlete who hit 4 home runs in the boys league, only second to a boy, who hit one more. She also plays 3 musical instruments, and now she is a designer too. She designed a sporty sleeveless jacket (I call it a vest). The craziest thing is she is only 8. Say what? Yes only 8. And she was initially shy about sharing her designs with me, but once I gave her the approval she was looking for; she poured it on. She made my birthday one of the best ever.
Rockstars live today to inspire what is possible tomorrow. My niece is 8 and I am 45, inspired the following….
