Three days. 14 talks. 700 employees.

I really enjoy getting to be with people who work day-in, day-out in the intense and demanding world of health care. My topic for the good folks was ” Going the Extra MYLE–Make your Life Extraordinary.”

I was very impressed with the hospital and the spirit of welcome from the employees as well as the administrators (who showed up for the 1 am talk-even though they had heard the stories and punch lines numerous times before!) I also learned that I am not exactly built to speak at 1 am.

Saw an old high school buddy from my seminary days. Also went to the local Catholic bookstore and a youth minister was shocked to see me there. She mentioned to the manager that I was there –and the manager treated me like I was some sort of celebrity! Kinda funny. But then again maybe she was going the extra myle.
