Developing the vision statement process forced me to peel back the layers of myself to get to what really matters to me.

I've been meaning to email you to thank you and Tim for helping me create change in my life. Since I attended the workshop I have changed careers and moved across country. Both have been very good decisions that I may not have made without your assistance in focusing my thoughts.
I will always look back and think about Estes Park as a turning point in my life.
My sincerest thanks,

PS. My old boss told me that no one else from her team is allowed to go to your workshop. She doesn't want to lose anyone else
It was a great three days that I will never forget!
Greg, you shared with us that your mission was to make a difference in people’s lives. You are most definitely succeeding in that with this program.
I learned many things during the workshop, but three key things that stand out for me are:
That I know myself better than I thought I did, which has taught me that I can trust myself.
That we all share common experiences, fears, hopes and dreams, and that makes us not so alone in the world.
That there are men out there who can openly share their feelings and emotions. This is not something that’s ever been part of my experience in life.
My only regret is that the workshop wasn’t longer.
Thanks again for an amazing experience that I’ll never forget.
I had a fantastic experience at the "Leading From Within" workshop. The only regret was that I had to leave early. I truly feel my co-horts also came away with a different perspective. We are meeting off-site this Thursday and Friday to do our charting process for our team. Your workshop has help pave the way to a better understanding of each other and ourselves.

I received the letter that I wrote to myself during the workshop. I had forgotten we had done that exercise. I really enjoyed the message I wrote myself. Thanks for suggesting the workshop. I cannot believe how much of the stuff we did has fit into my life having left the workshop.

This experience was like a daily exercise. Day one was a shower. Day two was standing naked in front of a mirror. Day three was going to the closet to get dressed. The workshop helps you determine the best clothes to wear to go out and face the world.

I had no idea how powerful this workshop would be for me personally. I am leaving now with a sense of true understanding and accomplishment.

This will be one of my life changing experiences. Learning about what you need to change in yourself isn’t an easy process but it was an eye opener.

If only you could come home and maintain the level of tranquility and balance that is developed during those three days. But even after the glow wears off, it is amazing how my perspective is somewhat different than it was before. Thank you for the difference those three days made in my life.

Jill McFarland

Western Nebraska Community College |
Just a note to say hi and to tell you how appreciative I still am of having been a part of LFW. I received my letter to myself yesterday. It brought a smile to my face and a kick in the butt at the same time. So often I still get too wrapped up in the current crisis of the day and forget about the important people in my life. The letter helped me remember who I am and got me back in the right direction. Thanks again.
The picture on the brochure brought all the emotions flooding back for me. It is hard to express the true significance of the program you have put together. It would probably sound “corny” to an outsider.

I just wanted to let you know that I told my supervisor that I felt the workshop was a wonderful gift. Thank you so much for your patience and insightful instruction over the three days we were in Estes Park. It has made a difference in my life already and I know the work I need to continue to do. “Re-entry” was difficult, but I was better equipped to meet and seek out challenges today.

Great learning experience. The old saying “you only get what you put into it: is very appropriate for this workshop.

Amazing! Everything is put in perspective internally. I can’t believe I was able to leave outside issues out of my learning experience and focus on the important things. Thanks.

I was resistant to attend. Once here, I opened up to the possibilities and was able to confront some issues that I needed to deal with. The people that were here made it possible for me to get there with their openness and honesty.

It was like peeling an onion. Each layer removed brought me closer to my core, the soul of who we are and why we are here.

Amazing. I grew. Others grew. And I grew from seeing others grow. Mike and Greg gave themselves to us and “taught” without “preaching.”

The experience was a total transformation of myself, judging from what others told me. I went from being timid and hoping people would not look at me to being confident, strong and accountable. I was able to look people in the eyes when I spoke to the group.
Chris Cillian
E-470 Public Highway Authority |
Helped me further on the road of steady change and focus on the things that are getting in the way.
It was an awesome experience for me. You created an environment where I felt open to talk and share with the group. I don’t always do that. I enjoyed stretching and expanding my comfort zone even though it wasn’t always easy or comfortable. I was amazed how many insights came to me over these three days.
Suzanne Dysard

Fulfilling and opened my eyes and heart to what I have been thinking for awhile. This helped me make it okay to move forward. My vision is clear and I will move forward with it.

I have to say that this workshop is for everyone. I would recommend Greg to everyone. I want to do another one with my son!
