HEY TEACHERS .....

...... you could all make fortunes in USA pedalling out rubbish like this:

When I used to go to overseas conferences with the wine company I worked for that had been taken over by a big American conglomerate, they used to have' key-note' speakers like the jerk in this article, who, having just released some guru-type twaddle that got featured on Oprah, Letterman or the other waste-of-space television media, would be invited to the conference to expound on it. A free book came with the excruciating two hour presentation (the last one I went to I didn't bother attending and went for a walk instead going to the auditorium at the lunch break). The worst of these was Bruce Jenner the ex-Olympian who gave a 'motivational' talk. He was like a bo-toxed version of John Key.



Ooops, sorry, wrong one ....




Nope, wrong one .....




Found it.

Motivational speakers are so de-motivating it's sad.
The real worry is that they don't realise they're de-motivational.

The poor bastards.
