Book Description
"Frustrated and unfulfilled with his comfortable existence in the States, successful businessman Norm Schriever knows there is something more he is supposed to do with his life. So, he quits his job, sells and donates all of his possessions, and moves down to Tamarindo, Costa Rica, with nothing but a laptop and a surfboard, vowing to chase his long-forgotten dream of being a writer. But Norm soon finds that paradise has its dark side, and the perfect life in a little seaside town isn't always as easy as it seems. Whether it's adapting to the local customs and the language barrier, dodging lawless drug traffickers and corrupt cops, or spending "quality time" in a Third World prison, Norm always keeps his sense of humor and forges ahead, intent on finding the paradise he has been looking for. Will Norm achieve his dream, and gain a new appreciation for life, love, and happiness in one of the most beautiful places on earth? Or will he succumb to the jungle heat, scorpions, and machete-wielding marauders? Grab your sunblock and buckle up, because you're in for a gonzo blast of laughter and adventure...south of normal"--Cover p. [4].

How to Stay Motivated on the Deck of the Titanic
Author: Norm Bossio
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 1598581856
Category : Conduct of life
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Have you ever felt like you are on a sinking ship with no control over the future? This book will teach you how to take control of your life, get your priorities straight, put your family first, use the gifts that you have been given and take a long hard look at yourself in the mirror. Using stories of my life as an only child, a single Dad of three boys, as a school principal and now as a Grampa, I can teach you how to not only survive, but thrive. This book includes useful tips on how to deal with difficult people, how to deal with stress, how to manage change and more. While the Titanic is a metaphor for the book, I am convinced that some people enjoy being miserable so much that they actually aim at icebergs, hit them and then complain about the weather as they sink. You can stay motivated on the deck of the Titanic and this book will show you how. For over 26 years, Norm Bossio has spoken publicly in front of over 2.5 million audience members in venues ranging from an American Indian Village Tribunal to the Hoosier Dome. Norm once spoke to 400 high school students, 50 lingerie salespeople, and 45 nuclear physicists...... all in the same day. Having keynoted national conferences in virtually every major industry, Norm's audiences have included clients ranging from Bill Clinton to Stephen King. Prior to founding Norm Bossio Enterprises, he served for 23 years as a teacher, principal and superintendent of schools. For eight years, Norm was an adjunct faculty member and consultant to the management certificate program at Stonehill College. He received his BS from Springfield College and M. Ed. from Boston State College. In 2006, Norm hosted the national public television special, "Staying Motivated on the Deck of the Titanic with Norm Bossio." In 1994, Norm was named Speaker of the Year by the Yankee Chapter of Meeting Planners International.
