Ted Tuesday: ALA Keynoters— Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly: Be Passionate. Be Courageous. Be Your Best.

"He has combined teamwork, leadership, communication and family in an unwavering commitment to succeed. "













Good Morning Folks,

In just a few short weeks several members of the FSO family and I will be on our way to Toronto for the Association of Legal Administrators premier annual event. These few days of knowledge and collaboration are just one of the many ways we are spreading the FSO way, driving visibility for our great brand and making powerful connections.

A highlight of the conference for me, as Chief Happiness Officer, will be the keynote by Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly. Talk bout possibility thinking and overcoming adversity.

Their address will be called "Endeavour to Succeed" taking place Tuesday 20th at 8AM Sharp.

On January 8, 2011, Mark Kelly faced the toughest challenge of his life when a would-be assassin shot his wife, who was then serving as a U.S. Congresswoman. His dedication to family and Gabby Giffords' arduous road to recovery captivated the world.

For Kelly, focus equals success-even in the face of adversity. Personifying resilience and spirit, he was a combat pilot in Iraq, an astronaut on four Space Shuttle missions and commander of the final flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour. He has combined teamwork, leadership, communication and family in an unwavering commitment to succeed. Kelly shows audiences how to accomplish their missions while maintaining the love and devotion to family that make up the foundation of true success.

Kelly and Giffords will have their international bestselling book, Gabby: A Story of Courage and Hope, available in the onsite ALA Bookstore, with a book signing to follow the ALA Keynote Address on Tuesday, May 20.

In today's Ted preclude to their keynote , Be passionate. Be courageous. Be your best, the pair describe their lives both before and after the accident -- and describe their political campaign against gun violence.



The Gifford's embody all of the goodness which lies within us. Theirs is also a story of teamwork at its best. At FSO, we are only going to get bigger, better and stronger as a TEAM.

To our team: You have been given the opportunity to show what you’re made of, to be so much stronger and better than you were just the day before and to show the world of business a better way.  

So as you get ready to start your day take a second to think; how am I contributing to the FSO competitive difference? How can I be better?

How can I get to infinity and beyond? 

How can I be that star, that hero that brings to our clients all the positive change, wealth and success they deserve?

I hope you are feeling great and are geared up for another personal, passionate, productive week.

Because IT IS YOU that makes FSO who we are. 

Love Life!
