How to Resolve Conflict and Create a Fantastic Future with Paul Nadeau

"The quality of our lives depends not on whether we have conflicts, but on how we respond to them" - Thomas Crum Today I will be speaking to a man whose compelling life story has left me speechless. He has been through life-threatening circumstances but still managed to become the amazing positive person he is today.  My guest Paul Nadeau is a Canadian former hostage negotiator, peacekeeper, author, screenwriter, motivational, and keynote speaker. He grew up in a violent home. Teachers and students looked down upon him but he was able to turn things around and was even able to publish a bestseller entitled Hostage to Myself.  Take a moment and let Paul's thoughts and ideals inspire you. You too, can be a hero. Highlights: ✅ We are more similar than we are different.  ✅ It is important to put yourself in someone else's shoes.  ✅ Reacting is different from responding. Reacting leads to conflict, depression, and anxiety. ✅ A winner's mindset: Responds instead of reacting and chooses to make positive responses. Believes in oneself and moves forward with confidence despite the difficulties. Practices the golden rule. Start each day with gratitude.   Important stories: ✍🏼 3:29 Paul Nadeau's transition from a battered and troubled child to the person he is now.  ✍🏼 14:08 Paul Nadeau becoming part of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police ✍🏼 17:40 Paul Nadeau as a peacekeeper and trainer at the Jordanian International Police Training Center  ✍🏼 25:04 Insurgents take Paul Nadeau hostage. ✍🏼 34:29 Paul Nadeau's relationship with his future self.
