I have long aspired to the words of the first motivational speaker Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Be yourself and run your life by what you know to be right and in harmony with your spiritual essence."

I was a struggling, yet an idealistic youth who wanted to change the world but I had to learn to ignore those who said it could not be done. In fact, I realized as an adult without my starry-eyed youthful idealism that it is impossible NOT to change the world. Most people think seeing is believing. As a motivator, I think believing comes first.

I hope that my audiences gain more than primers filled with tongue-in-cheek applications of classical pragmatism gone awry in the contemporary society. I have longed to be the "REAL Thing" and not "This year's Band-Aid." I attempt to dispense wisdom addressing the soul rather than the wallet. I believe genuine Motivation and Inspiration are basically answering the question of how a 'good person' should live, with the underlying assumption that NOTHING IS TOO HORRIBLE IN THE WORLD THAT GOOD CAN NOT OVERCOME.

Dr. Adolph Brown, III

Adolph is special. He was special when we met back in our college days. He was always a bit challenging to understand, but always easy to love. He continues to demonstrate he can handle any situation with great poise, maturity, and intelligence...and often coupled with humor. Adolph meets each challenge head on and refuses to quit! He does not let the fame or the pressure weigh him down. He doesn't carry it on his shoulders. He's modest about it. You can see he absolutely loves life. Truth is, fans appreciate Adolph no matter what. Maybe, it's the zest evident in the way he views life and carries himself through life. Or, maybe, it's because he is so authentic, warm, and approachable. Regardless of what Adolph is going through personally or professionally, he walks his talk...dancing through the storms of life with a smile on his face and joy in his heart.

Honorably,

Marla
Wife of Doc

" The ancient Chinese proverb suggests that "The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials." Make no mistake; Adolph has had plenty of "trials" in his ___ (many) years here on earth. He has adopted the attitude of "Hurl at me what you will, I will not go down." He is quite successful at helping others allow nothing to stand in between themselves and their dreams. Not too bad for a "poor boy from Virginia." We are proud of him and he is not finished yet."
