SEMINAR: "TRAIN YOUR BRAIN" 1/22
|
Your Brain is the single biggest driver of your energy, your focus, and the results you get in every area of life. Your career, your finances, your physical health, your relationships- all of them are constantly created and influenced by your thinking. Unfortunately, your brain didn't come with an owner's manual...until now.
In "Train Your Brain For Success", you will learn to harness the incredible creative capacity of your mind and achieve your personal best - professionally, financially and personally. Best part? You'll do this in about the time it takes to go out for lunch. 
The presentation is by Robb Zbierski from Freedom Personal Development. Robb has trained business professionals from all walks of life, on personal development skills that make a difference in both their professional and personal lives. In this program, Robb will show us how to use our minds effectively to achieve a personal best-at work and in our lives.
Register here for the January 22nd (10am-11:30am) seminar at COD/Carol Stream...

Four other chambers join our efforts to bring this event to you -- Addison, Bartlett, Bloomingdale and Glendale Heights Chamber -- and make it happen.

There will be a beautiful room teeming with exhibitors, giveaways, and energy. Again this year, we will offer the Health Stage at which wellness topics will be presented. You cannot go wrong when you take time out of your day to visit -- FREE Parking, FREE Food Samples, FREE Admission, Giveaways -- there will also be a Blood Drive at the event.
