I have a passion for learning and for having fun. I’d like to share my passion with you. One of the challenges I took on a few years ago was to learn to ride a motorcycle. In order to keep my messages interesting I use motorcycle analogies to make points with serious topics. For starters, I’ve written the story you will find below. Enjoy.
For continuous learning, sign up to receive and collect my iNFO_NOTEs - reference sheets that I regularly produce with content you can use right away and that you can share with others in your organization.

alternate reality there were four motorcycles. In this reality, motorcycles were alive and they had names and personalities.

Sel F. Steem. She was a Cruiser-style bike; confident and strong, full of chrome and steel and a “look-at-me” persona.
|
|
|
A.T. Tude – was a Chopper; a one-of-a-kind customized bike with a bad, bold, rebel reputation.
|
|
|
Elly Derr (say it fast) – was a Sport Bike; very fast and nimble. She was able to maneuver through curves and avoid obstacles with relative ease.
|
|
|
Phol O. Wer (say it fast) – was a Trail Bike, otherwise known as a Dirt Bike. He thrived on a life of ups-and-downs and traversed rough terrain on a routine basis. Sometimes he traveled paths laid by others; other times he blazed new trails for himself.

Each motorcycle lived their lives being who they were. They interacted with others and did what they most naturally did best. There were times, however, when things did not go as they planned.
They each faced obstacles and met their respective challenges. In doing so, they ran out of gas or wore-down their batteries. They needed a support system to help them recharge. They needed to periodically refuel to get a fresh start and regain nourishment. They needed “brain food” to continue their respecSel F. Steem, A.T. Tude, Elly Derr, and Phol O. Wer decided to form a motorcycle club as their support system. They called their club The Moto-Vators. They met regularly at a service station near them and pumped themselves up with the resources and tools they found there. This helped them acquire more knowledge, explore new ideas, gain different perspectives, learn new skills, and reinforce skills they already had. They considered this brain food their “cycle-therapy”. They committed to returning again and again throughout their lives while on their never-ending quests to succeed, grow and improve themselves. They set their paths to achieve their goals.
people, and to include other vehicles in this alternate reality. So she called on a resource that seemed to have just what the group needed – the tools that were springboards to personal and professional development. She collaborated to continually update and add to the resources and tools she made available to anyone with the initiative to seek them out and learn.
springboard to personal and professional development – this service station – is the home base for these tools and resources. The fuel tanks are constantly renewed. Pick and choose the resources and tools most appropriate for you and your organization. Some cost money; some are no charge; all are priceless!
