Transcript:
Lucy: So how does this motivational speaker thing work? Danae: Watch and learn. Whoa...your wife let you go out in public like that? Man: Uh...I'm not married. Danae: And you never will be if you keep dressing like a clown! Hey, where are you going? You owe me ten bucks!! Lucy: I guess this is why those other guys make people pay in advance.

Ops, she did not quite get her act together. Notice we said ‘act’; that is all such ‘motivation…’ stuff is all about. Who in their right mind…….?

Lucy does talk.
Motivational speakers are know it all born losers.They don’t know how to earn a living at a real job.I usually tune them out. Motivation comes from within

Snoopy uses thought bubbles that, somehow, communicate with non-humans (Woodstock, Spike, etc.). Or he uses a kind of sign language when dictating letters to Woodstock..Lucy nailed that one on the head. If you’ve ever paid for a motivational speaker, you’ll understand why. Buyer remorse.

I’ve always wondered how people get into motivational speaking and actually get PAID for it. Maybe write a book first, it gets popular and then you speak about it. But you probably need to speak at a lot of free and low paying events before you get very popular.
They say if you think you’re a leader, look behind you and see if anyone is following you. If no one is there, you’re just out for a nice walk.
