Hey Cutters...

What's up? This week, I'm going to talk about Driftwood and I went
over to watch a screening at Ricky Ullman?s house, doing YRG with
Gayle on KTLA, my latest corporate speaking gig, and what happens when
you mix Apples and water...and I don't mean apples you eat, I mean my
dear departed Apple PowerBook laptop.

Well, last week I flew into Orlando, Florida to do my largest
corporate speaking gig to date. Over the past ten years, I've been
speaking at high schools and colleges across the country. We're
talking about Compton High School in Los Angeles, where around 90% of
the kids are in some kind of gang. I've even spoken at Yale not once
but twice. Over the last two years, I've even done a few small
corporate gigs speaking to 50 - 100 people. Along the way, I've
reinvented and reinvented my presentation. One of my presentations is
titled "An Inspirational Conversation with DDP". The core of the
presentation is how you can learn to "live Life at 90%". The formula
to that is that life is 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you
react to it. In other words, things happen in our personal and
professional lives on a daily basis that we have no control over. The
one thing we have constant control over is how we react to the
situation, our mind sets. Throughout the presentation, I give examples
my life and others that will help you live life at 90%. I do this
through humor, pictures, and video mixed with honesty and candor.
Leading into this event, in October and November, I was strictly
working on my movie project, Driftwood. Driftwood took up every moment
of my time and all of my focus and energy. The day we finished
shooting, I took off for a 3 1/2 week book tour for YRG? Yoga for
Regular Guys, which also took all of my focus. After that came the
holidays and on January 3rd, I finally sat down to write my latest
reinvention of "Living Life at 90%". What you need to understand is
that this is a one hour monologue that I have just totally written and
have to memorize since it's completely different from any other
version I've had to do until now...and let's not forget that I still
have dyslexia and ADD.
