"I asked Jonathan
for help with some small aspect of my business, as I am a new business
owner. One of the most important areas that Jonathan helped me work on
was listening. I realized very quickly that I was hearing but not really
listening and therefore not understanding clearly the need of my client.
Jonathan took me through several steps that I found initially very challenging
to deal with. However, I decided I would rise to the challenge and let
Jonathan guide the exercise. Jonathan took me from almost confrontational
(with myself) to being able to truly relax and experience the art
which it is of listening.
Shortly after working
with Jonathan I had the opportunity to use this new skill. It had wonderful
results. By learning ro really hear the need of my client, I am better
able to give them the information they want not what I think
they need. This place a completely different value on how this information
was in turn received.
I cannot thank Jonathan
enough for the value he has added not only to my business by to my whole
approach to life and my family. Thank You Jonathan, Your care and dedication
to others is outstanding."

"This experience
can only be described as mind transforming. I carry on my day with greater
energy and a clear head that affects all that I do at work, with clients
and with my family. It allows the mind to be quiet, to be strong and fulfilled.
You have to experience it before you will really know how powerful this
is."
Rick Spencer
President, Spencer Steel
"How do you explain
this awesome experience? There is no way of explaining this it's so profound
that there was no point at which I could say my life changed. I have just
simply and completely transformed. My good life became great!"

"I cleaned up
and strengthened relationships that weren't bad but not great and that
happened throughout the company making us a stronger, more cohesive unit.
As a result, communication improved across our departments creating a
catalyst for productivity and sales increases."
Brian Death
General Manager, J.D. Smith & Son's
"It is a process
that has you look at who you are and who you think you are and out of
that you arrive at who you really are. You begin to see reality for what
it is and not just what you think it is. You get confidence to see things
the way they really are. Its helped me figure out what I want to do and
what I don't want to do in every aspect of my life - it gives me enormous
energy."
Howie Wright
"These dialogues
resonate with some deep inner knowing and help me reconnect with that
deep knowledge and a more integrated view of myself and the circumstances
I create in my life. These circumstances are dealt with greater power,
clarity, compassion and love."
Paul Bowman
"It was quite
simply transformative. I don't think about the past, I am peace about
the future and I wake up every morning feeling humble and much more natural
as a person. The weight is off my shoulders. I was introduced to ideas
that can change a person's life when they are ready for it. Living in
the now and all that entails has indeed changed my life and continues
to do soon a daily basis. I highly recommend exploring this experience."

"As partners
in business and at home, we were looking for better focus on our roles
within the company, more time off and life balance. The program provided
that and some welcome spill over into our personal lives. We enjoy a closer
relationship with each other and our family, take a record amount of time
off to travel and our improved health provides a more peaceful and relaxed
life. With Jonathan's guidance, we've accomplished all of this without
rocking the bottom line."

"What a truly
delightful experience spending time with you. With our school emphasis
on reformation from within, it was so simple to see the power in the possibilities
as you presented and worked with the group.
I would like to hear
from you how to get 60 copies of the book. I invited each person (teacher,
custodian, secretary etc) to find himself/herself on the journey with
Duxter.
Your work is truly
a treasure Jonathan. It is liberating, life giving and inspiring. Anyone
with a bit of confidence and trust can make giant LEAPS! with your
guidance."

Principal, St. Christopher Catholic Secondary School
"You have structured
a very special time and space for us to explore our own power and possibility.
You are a wise guide a gifted facilitator. Our journey, as leaders and
as members of executive council is enlightened by your book, your wisdom
and your spiritual strength. We value this time and this experience with
you. I believe we will continue to grow from this moment of awareness!.
Thank you most sincerely."

"My husband stumbled
upon your book LEAP! at Kinko's the other day. While he was waiting,
he thumbed through your book and found what he read interesting, and purchased
it. That night we read it together. All I can say is WOW! You certainly
know how to put a perspective on life in a creative way. We had a good
chuckle over the story, as we saw ourselves in the past and present.
We are now in the
process of reading this book to our children, (11 & 12 years), we
do have to explain some things, but they really understand and find the
story amusing. I will definitely be recommending this book to anyone I
know or meet."
Catherine Dunbar
"This past year,
in my career, things haven't gone exactly as hoped for. A firm offering
a new direction approached me and I was very eager to learn more. As I
learned of this opportunity and its earning potential, I also realized
that this was a major change in my career path with many differences,
but I felt I was up for the challenge. As the day drew nearer, stress
overwhelmed me and I was not thinking clearly. I was given a copy of your
book by a new acquaintance that thought I would benefit from it's content.
From the moment I
began reading, I felt a part of the book and thought to myself, this book
was written for me. I could totally relate to the character and his realizations
as he traveled through the State of Can't. Duxter was asked what made
him feel the best when asked to relate to his present job. He spoke of
his hobby and the smell of wood in his shop, the sounds of the tools and
the ability to move around. At work, he sits all day in a chair at his
desk It was at that point that I knew what made me the happiest in my
career and day-to-day life. With twenty years invested in the same industry,
I chose to stay where I am, to do what I do best. I believe that everything
happens for a reason and I am grateful to you for writing this book. The
way you wrote it and the exact timing has helped me get back on track
and make a valuable life decision. It was a pleasure to read and I will
share this experience with everyone."
Robert Gifford
"Attending Jonathan's
LEAP! workshop reminded me that all of the answers to life's important
questions can be found within. Taking a LEAP! is most simply the
discovery or rediscovery of confidence and faith in self. Since participating
in the workshop, I have creatively achieved a state of autonomy in business
that for the longest time seemed to be just a little too far beyond my
reach. I am now the president of my own company and I am loving the freedom."

Please accept my most
sincere appreciation for your awesome leadership in the Executive Council
retreat this fall. I must say that my initial reaction to the topic of
the retreat was darker than I would like to admit; but, the outcome was
more than I could have hoped for.... It was truly a LEAP! for me
personally!
The Master Time Maker was an "aha!" where I began to understand
and recognize an awareness of my being.... and the elevator opened the
doors to an understanding of the aware mind state and the realization
that sometimes "things just are".
Your personal coaching,
although for only an hour, was the spark that opened the barrier from
the stands and placed me squarely in the game. I was at the effect of
leadership postulates and you helped me recognize that I had opposing
beliefs, and once recognized, my mind cleared, I saw a sense of logic,
a sense of understanding and a sense of peace (absence of stress), the
likes of which I had never experienced. As you advised us all ... no matter
what happens, it will all work out OK!
As part of the Executive Council, my view of the world has changed, I
feel my relationships with my peers has improved significantly, and I
am taking on challenges with renewed vigor and a heightened appreciation
for the wonderful organization and people that I work for and with.
I look forward to further meetings with you and especially I look forward
to the opportunity to have you lead my department through the same awakening.
Thank You for your enlightenment!
