        Tap Code

“By tapping covertly on our cell walls using an alphabet code we maintained our unity. We encouraged and cared for each other. We passed information, learned poetry, even learned new languages.

I got to know my fellow prisoners like brothers, though I’d never even seen them.”

 

 

                                         


 

Why select Captain Coffee

 


                                 "I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul."

                                                               from "Invictus" by William Earnest Henley

        Whatever the specific concerns of your group, one need is universal: faith in our   ability to meet whatever challenges we may face in our personal and professional lives.

         The pace and complexity of our lives and businesses today too often force us into a survival mode.  It is easy to lose sight of the best within us as we expend our energies protecting our positions and possessions.  Yet, at heart, we know that survival alone is not enough.  Our lives and our work must reflect a spirit of basic well-being that comes from believing in ourselves and extending that trust to others.

        Each individual attending your meeting comes with his or her own agenda.  Some will be at points in their lives where basic survival is paramount.  Others want to grow.  still others are experiencing the best of life and want affirmation to stay on course.  Whatever the mindset, you can be sure it would translate to bottom-line performance.

        Captain Coffee's presentation is a lasting gift to your group that unites their hearts and minds in a compelling and unforgettable experience.  There is no glib theory or repackaging of outdated clichés.  He speaks not from academic research or hypothesis but from the clear perspective of his own real-life experience.  Captain Coffee's sincerity is his hallmark.  Through his unique credibility, his experience becomes our experience.

        Too many times we settle for a speaker who offers only a temporary high.  Captain Coffee offers a message we can draw on for the rest of our lives.  We are the masters of our fate.  We are the Captains our souls.  Not only does he demonstrate that this conviction must come from within, he touches the place inside of us where it begins.

        This is a man who has lived through a seven-year ordeal few of us believe we could survive.  The awareness he inspires causes us to understand our own invincibility... and how to access our strengths to deal with the changes and uncertainties of our own lives.  His message becomes a part of us from the moment we hear it.

        Captain Coffee speaks to each of us, whether corporate executives, sales professionals, students, marriage partners or parents.  He inspires pride, spirit and celebration.  His approach to life indeed changes our own.

"Your story made me forget the little nuisances that I live with everyday, and you remind me to be grateful for my life today, as an American!  Our human spirit may be "bent" during the difficult times, but it can never be broken because we must not choose to allow it.  Your story was so compelling that it gave me goose bumps!
