    About Gary C.

    4.8
    (24)
    I’m basically a cowboy from Wyoming who loves traveling around the world and meeting people from other cultures. At the same time, I have been very successful in business and leadership positions. MY GOAL NOW is to watch YOU SUCCEED in all your dreams. Overall, I think my greatest strength is in connecting with people. I have a reputation for getting things done while empathizing with the needs of those around me. I enjoy life, nature, and people and am currently living in my fourth different culture and loving it. Others often comment about the way I am always quick to step in and help others, and I consider it to be one of my family traditions. I have a journalism degree from the University of Wyoming and have taken classes from George Washington University and Arizona State University. I served in the US Army as a Green Beret (special forces) and later had successful business careers in real estate, retail sales, and tourism. Along the way, I have been a rodeo rider, a pilot, a bartender, and a movie extra. My photos have been published in print, online, and in The New York Times. And I have published 5 books and over 3000 people read my online articles each month. Currently, I am helping business executives and others with my company, Cowboy Coaching. I love to see others become successful.

    I had a Best Man's speech to give and I have have no public speaking skills. I am so glad I decided to present it to Gary first. The speech ended up going wonderfully because I took his valuable and simple tips to heart. For me it was to breathe, enunciate and slow down, and then slow down some more.

    Unfortunately, Gary did not show up to the assigned time for our first public speaking lesson in the TakeLessons classroom at 06AUG2023, 08:30 am MST. Dropped from the call at 08:40 am MST. Was a shame, as I was looking forward to the lesson
