Lori McNeil – International Educator and Business Coach

For every negative, you need 5-10 positive statements or remarks.
Its because that negative is so much stronger. 

‘Legacy’ is not what we have been taught. Most people think that if they have great wealth, that they are leaving a legacy. Legacy is much bigger than you, your family or your local community. These are great but not big enough. A true legacy impacts the masses for generations. Lori McNeil, international educator, and business coach says, “You can’t buy a legacy, you have to build it. When building your own Legacy, you truly need to dig deeper into what YOU want to leave.” She teaches the importance of a legacy and provides a blueprint to actually accomplish it. How do you want to be remembered 100 years from now? It’s near the beginning of the year and a great time for people to start making those goals and planning the legacy they want to leave behind.
