"Once you commit to big goals and live with intention, life opens up with unending possibilities."
Start your annual CSMFO conference experience on Wednesday, February 16th by committing to big goals and living with intention. The world is changing faster than we ever imagined. Leaders and teams have to dig deep within themselves to break through and find opportunity in uncertain times. Before becoming a #1 New York Times bestselling author, playing basketball at the White House, having beers with Prince Harry, or living out his other dreams, Ben Nemtin suffered from crippling depression.
After committing to a series of positive life changes, Ben had a shift in perspective that changed his outlook on life and opened himself up to endless possibilities. From there, he committed to following his buried dreams and helping others through acts of service. The rest is history, and Ben’s life-changing message has opened up audiences around the world to cultures of service, gratitude and endless potential.
Whether you need to set bigger goals or reach the ones you already have, Ben will help you get from “ambition” to “accomplishment.” Ben’s message of radical possibility combined with his ‘5 Steps to Make the Impossible Possible’ leaves audiences not only inspired but also equipped with tools to tackle the seemingly insurmountable. His system of achieving impossible goals demystifies daunting tasks by turning ‘dreams’ into ‘projects’ and creates inspiration through action and accountability. Each conference attendee will have the opportunity to “Discover Your Own Dreams” and add them to our CSMFO “Dream Wall”.
