Being Unique

trmc Blog Post 0 9

When it comes to who we are, the majority of us find that we end up conforming to the standards of society. Is it really fun to simply run with the crowd? Our inner drive makes us who we are and why should we work to hide it just because society does not think it is “normal”. Who actually develops the standards for what constitutes as “normal” anyways? Do not let society stop you from unleashing you inner drive! Be unique, go against what the status quo thinks and develop an identity for yourself that truly demonstrates your individuality. Being unique and being weird should not hinder you from reaching your potential, ALLOW IT TO BE YOUR INNER DRIVE! Author Seth Godin has recently introduced a book called “We Are All Weird:The Myth of Mass and the End of Compliance” in which he discusses the matter of not conforming to societies expectations. I would encourage you all to check out his book, it is a real eye opener!

Remember to join us at the 7th floor kiosk of the Ted Rogers School of Business Management building every Tuesday and Thursday in January as we will be showcasing the many events to be taking place at the conference. DON’T FORGET to take part in our video CHALLENGE!! We would like all delegates to send us a video in which you display your inner drive. By doing so, you have a chance of winning a FREE ticket to the conference. Contest rules are listed here: http://ryersontrmc.ca/about-trmc/videochallenge/. Create your video NOW as the contest deadline is January 20th 2012 at midnight.

From the entire TRMC committee we encourage you all to be weird and wacky- to represent yourself regardless of what others may think of you.

“We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.” – Dr. Seuss

Philanthropy as an Inner Drive

trmc Blog Post 0 11

Wealth can have a significant impact on the decisions made by individuals on a daily basis. A million dollars can definitely buy you the luxury goods that you desire but will that really keep you satisfied? Billionaire Bill Gates strives to help humanity by actively donating a great deal of his wealth in order to sustain health and development projects across the world. Gates realizes that “a billion gives you economic, social and political leverage, should you care to exploit it”. Gates established a foundation for philanthropy back in 1994. As his passion for humanity grew he worked to exploit the benefits received from donating one’s wealth to notable causes. As a result of his passion he has gained the support of many people in society. Gates has come to realize that he has the tools to make a significant impact on the world. His passion for humanity demonstrates his thriving inner drive.

Motivation can stem from any area of our lives and it varies from person to person. Sometimes it can be hard to find that inner drive but the moment it comes into sight you begin to soar. You will reach new heights you thought were never possible. In the video below motivational speaker, Tony Robbins explains “why we do what we do and what drives individuals in their life today”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cpc-t-Uwv1I. Take a look at the video! We want to know what keeps you going! What shapes the actions that you make on a day-to-day basis?

During the month of January join us at the 7th floor kiosk of the Ted Rogers School of Business Management for TRMC Tuesdays! Each week we will be showcasing mini events that will be taking place at the conference. Come out and join the FUN!!!

“WHAT’S YOUR ID?”

trmc Blog Post 0 5

Winston Churchill once said “Success is going from failure to failure without a loss of enthusiasm”. We have all been faced with hardships in our lives that we find are too difficult to overcome. However, with the right mindset and determination one can find that those so called failures become nothing more than concrete reinforcements. When enthusiasm is evident even through failure it is a demonstration of thriving inner drive (ID). An individual’s ID plays a significant role in how they view the world in terms of the past, the present and future. Our ID shapes our dreams, goals and ambitions – it allows us to reach a level of success we never thought was possible.

This year TRMC will focus on how local entrepreneurs, business leaders and mainstream executives used their inner drive to become the success they are today. We will explore how they made it to the top tier, what motivated them beyond their call of action and how they used their failures as positive motivation. We will also take a look at how companies have been able to instil technological devices in order to further the success of their business. As we live in world where technology plays a significant role in our daily lives it would beneficial to see how top executives have used their inner drive to innovate the operations of their business.

Introducing The Third Annual Ted Rogers Management Conference, Business Powered by Motivation, Geared by Innovation – what’s your ID?

In the spirit of the Holidays, we will be conducting a draw in which two Ryerson delegates have a chance of winning a FREE ticket to the Conference.  Register by December 31, 2011 for a chance to WIN!!!
