The Cold, Hard, Ugly Truth About Success

This is Larry`s most popular keynote address and pulls material from 3 of his bestsellers, Shut Up, Stop Whining & Get A Life, It`s Called Work For A Reason and People Are Idiots And I Can Prove It. In it, Larry attacks traditional business wisdom and offers simple truths in his caustic, thought-provoking, and hilarious style. He offers a realistic approach that will work for anyone, at any time and in any business. The principles he discusses are the foundation for true success and can be applied to life, money, parenting, customer service, sales, leadership and more. He is known as the Pitbull of Personal Development, the Rockstar of Personal Finance and has been called the King of Common Sense and this speech reflects all of those monikers.

Larry points out the contradictions of saying we want success and practicing actions that bring about failure. His emphasis is personal responsibility, integrity, an impeccable work ethic, flexibility in a time of change, keeping a sense of humor and more. He teaches that business improves when the people in the business improve and that everything in life gets better when we get better and nothing gets better until we get better. Winget`s approach remains that WORK is the key to success: not talking about work, not having meetings about work, not writing reports about work, but WORK. Larry says, You don`t think your way to success, believe your way to success or happy your way to success, you only WORK your way to success! This speech has been given to nearly 400 of the Fortune 500 and is the foundation of Larry`s approach to life, business and success. It never fails to make you think AND laugh!

According to Bookpage, his no-holds barred approach to business is refreshing, and his clear sense of personal integrity is a much-needed refresher in today`s business climate.

What It Really Takes to Succeed

This keynote is based on Larry`s New York Times bestseller It`s Called Work For A Reason. This is perfect for any audience that wants a general business message that is based on personal responsibility, hard work and excellence. It can also be tweaked to refine the focus of the message on leadership, sales, or customer service. It is full of great stories just like you are used to from Larry, and has the caustic wit and humor that Larry is so well known for. So it`s still informative, thought provoking and hilarious - in other words, it`s Larry at his best only more of it.

How To Stop Getting By and Start Getting Ahead

Larry has become a financial guru to many people because of his work on A&E`s Big Spender, his appearances on CNBC`s The Millionaire Inside, The Today Show, as a regular on Fox News and Fox Business and in his PBS special. This dynamic keynote is based on Larry`s #1 Bestseller, You`re Broke Because You Want To Be. In this keynote, Larry teaches that your financial condition is the result of your choices.

Larry covers how to set priorities for your life and that life is like a crime novel: if you want to find the culprit, follow the money. He tells his personal story of how he went from dirt poor to rich to bankrupt to multi-millionaire. He ties wealth building and getting out of debt to good old-fashioned hard work. He will also teach you how to develop a philosophy of money that can carry you through any situation.

If desired, Larry can also give tactics on how to get out of debt and how to change your lifestyle so you will have more money. While a serious subject, the speech is also hilarious and Larry tells great stories of his time shooting his television series, Big Spender for A&E and relates the stories of many of the encounters he has had...
