Conference Speaker -- Jeffrey Zaslow

Randy Pausch died in 2008.  He co-authored a book by journalist Jeffrey Zaslow.  Jeffrey Zaslow was the keynote speaker for the 2010 Alliance Conference in San Antonio.

He shared interesting things about his writings in the Wall Street Journal about Life Transitions. 

He also shared thoughts and anecdotes about this book and the other 2 books he has written. 

Here are a few quotes that I gathered from his talk that will stick with me....

"Do the right thing every time because we don't know what can happen"

"Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want"

"I have never found anger to make a situation better." Randy Pausch

Jeffrey Zaslow has written 2 more books that he reviewed.

The Girls from Ames - about women friendships






















Highest Duty an autobiography about Captain Sullenburger who landed the US Airways plane in the Hudson River.
