Anyone who has lost someone to death realizes just how precious life is. Anyone who has lost someone, due to suicide, realizes what a waste of precious life, suicide is. No one wants to talk about the horror of suicide; there is no way, to make the subject easy to discuss. When the media does a story on suicide…it seems that there is an increase in suicides attempts that take place. It is a careful balance to bring awareness to a terrible tragedy that affects so very many people; and yet, not give it so much attention that it plants seeds in the minds of those who are most vulnerable. Here is a site that can shed some light on the subject: http://www.suicidology.org/displaycommon.cfm?an=2
This week is National Suicide Prevention Week. It is important to bring the message of hope and restoration. Hurting people need to have a reason to live; they need to know that someone cares and is listening to them. Those same people need human intervention to help them when they are vulnerable. It is crucial to educate the public on ways to observe and interact with individuals who are struggling in their life and may be at risk for a suicide attempt. People experiencing loss, loneliness, physical or mental health problems, financial problems, depression or isolation are at risk. Every life has value and is worth saving! Won’t you take a few minutes to learn more?
There is a team of committed people who are working very hard to educate and bring awareness to the public about the issue of suicide prevention. The team is called Ken McArthur’s Impact Action Team; and they are trying to communicate the importance of teen suicide prevention. Here is a glimpse into the combined efforts of the Impact Action Team : http://speakupsavelives.org/general/speak-up-save-lives-message-to-be-broadcast-live-to-15-million-people-wednesday-morning-at-730-am-on-comcast-cn8 Check out their message and their goals…witness the impact that individuals can have by joining together with like-minded people. Have you been affected by suicide during your lifetime? If you could do ONE thing to help prevent a suicide, what would it be? Speak up…someone who needs to know could be listening!

Anyone who has ever gone into the military and gone through boot camp understands that boot camp is where they learned their basic skills. Once learned, those same skills were expected to be put to use to make an impact; wherever that individual was sent to serve. That is the same principal that business man and author, Ken McArthur, of JVAlert Live fame, is going to employ with 18 individuals through his new Impact Boot Camp http://www.impactbootcamp.com which is a 3 day intensive training program.
Ken has written a best selling book called, “Impact, How to Get Noticed, Motivate Millions and Make a Difference in a Noisy World” which was published earlier this year. He mentored with Glenn Dietzel of Books Mean Credibility fame to write that book in 12 hours. Ken created a whole program around the book after it was published. He knows quite a bit about making his voice heard; however, Ken has managed to snag some experts to train the 18 individuals; in areas of expertise such as: speakers, authors, business, marketers, media consultants, and publicity. Once those skills are learned…they will be asked to work together as a team. The 3 day training will take place on August 22, 23, 24th. There will be musical entertainment and motivation at this event as well; it is much anticipated! (more…)
