Walt interviews Lamar Johnson – Dare to be Different!

from Stand Up and Speak Up · host Stand Up and Speak Up

Lamar Johnson is interesting, entertaining, and has a unique outlook on life. When asked for a bio to promote the show, this response tells you all you need to know: Bios are boring and I don’t do boring so here is my obituary. Pulled from the future. Full of things I have done and will do. Time is an illusion! Here rests Lamar Johnson and it is about time. He taught fighter pilots how to operate nuclear reactors and grandmas how to use excel. His first experience in public speaking was giving a newscast to his classmates in 5th grade. He aced it. He spoke eloquently to Congressman about the idiocy of Congressional hearings on baseball PEDs while social security was literally evaporating into thin air. And once looked into the mouth of Mt Vesuvius and thought, what’s the big deal? From an early age he was a special kid :) Quick witted with horrible self-esteem, he read and willed himself to the best version of him. From getting an MBA and Frank Underwooding himself onto the school board, to quitting a job as a financial advisor on principal, he always forged his own path. A path that sometimes ran him right into quicksand. Divine province dictated that he would build a successful business. You see his mother successfully navigated the coding and certificate landscape of the 2nd most expensive and intensive real estate market in the world, NYC. So after building a catalog of over 200 information products in 2017 through Attraction Espresso, Lamar realized his dream of financial freedom and promptly started traveling the world. The world began with a quick stop in Hawaii for a month. He believed in a simple life. Figure out what you want, figure out the shortest path to capturing it, then just go get it. You will be better for the journey than the destination. And seriously, if you ever get the chance, skip the Mt Vesuvius tour, spend all the time in Pompeii. I can’t wait to talk to Lamar. You can find him on-line at www.lamarj.com.
