The true-life story of how one man moved from the trials of employment to the triumphs of self-employment.

After a boyhood in northern England, Ray Pons winged his way to the Great White North (a.k.a. Canada) to pursue his dreams. Or were they fantasies?

He did well - more than well - as a sales manager, insurance salesman, and reinsurance executive, but somehow happiness never stepped out to greet him.
He was easily bored, losing motivation, momentum . and eventually the jobs themselves.

Then, after a few fits and starts, and with the moral support of his wife, Marva, he said goodbye once and for all to a regular paycheck and hello to life as a business owner.

Here he tells his story with great honesty and practical wisdom, offering tips for how you can find your way in work and life.

Ray Pons is a keynote speaker and strategic business coach on issues of personal leadership and organizational effectiveness. He was born in Southport, a seaside town near Liverpool, England, and now lives in Newmarket, Ontario, with his wife Marva Castillo (a.k.a. Queen Bee). In addition to being a keynote speaker on issues of Leadership, Interpersonal Excellence, and Life Balance, Ray is co-owner of The Growth Coach, Newmarket, Ontario, which helps business owners, entrepreneurs, and self-employed men and women dramatically grow their businesses and achieve greater joy, freedom, and fulfillment in their lives. Ray is a lifelong fan of Liverpool FC, "the greatest football team of all time," and he is an avid if not terribly talented golfer.
