Showcasing speakers from the Do Lectures

“The Do Lectures.
The idea is a simple one.

That people who Do things, can inspire the rest of us to go and Do things too.

So each year, a set of people get up on stage and tell us what they Do.

They can be small Do’s or big Do’s or just plain amazing, extraordinary Do’s. But when you listen to their stories, they just light a fire in your belly to go and Do your thing, your passion, the thing that sits in the back your head each day, just waiting, and waiting for you to follow your heart.

To go find your cause to fight for, your company to go start, your invention to invent, your book to write, your mountain to climb.

The one thing the Doers of the world Do, apart from Do amazing things, is to inspire the rest of us to go and Do amazing things.

They are fire-starters.”

I am chuffed to be speaking at the Do Lectures this September. So I thought I would introduce you to some of the other speakers here. I’mve got a lot to learn from this bunch!

  3. Wish I could make it to one of your talks. Your not planning a trip to Scotland any time soon? Either way I’ll be able to catch your Do lecture online which should be great. I watched quite a few of the 2008 ones, with Trevor Baylis, Andy Kirkpatrick and Andy Cummins being my favourites. Best of luck!!

  4. No trips north of the border, unfortunately, Peter. I would love to do some talks up there. Any ideas where I should look? CTC perhaps?
