Salt Lake Thomas Jefferson Education Forum 2010

While we often speak of the Cold War ending with the fall of the Berlin Wall, centralized collectivism rebrands itself in a new totalitarian package of eager "helping hands" at least once a century. For an unwitting public, the reduction of liberty is happily accepted which prompts many of us to stand fast to preserve it. Unfortunately we oftentimes sabotage our own efforts with the best of intentions. How can we more effectively preserve our diminishing liberty?

Super charge your children’s learning environment and decrease your “what are we going to do today” stress!

After seven long years of hardship, and after feeling so much stress that Leslie Householder actually called the police on a kid who broke her broom, she and her husband were shown a diagram - a visual aid that changed everything.  After seeing the visual aid, and finally understanding the concept it so elegantly explains, they were able to apply principles of personal leadership to triple their income in three months.  Thousands of people all over the world have seen similarly remarkable results by applying the principle explained in this one simple drawing.  For families wh

Forgetting oneself in the work of building community is one of life’s sweetest joys, but it is not without its pitfalls. Local communities, whether based on geography, lifestyle or a common philosophy can be an invaluable resource for building families and individuals. Although we typically identify statesmanship as a key element of national and international affairs, the impact of statesmanship within local communities, whether as an effective leader or member, is huge.

Sometimes our "best-laid plans," wishes, hopes and dreams for our families and ourselves appear to "go wrong." What are some of the lessons we can learn from classic resources about helping things go right? As a framework for our discussion, we will consider the Parenting Pyramid developed by the Arbinger Institute and how its lessons can fortify TJEd-practising family and provide clarity wherever relationships appear to be "going wrong."

This one hour discussion will teach you everything you need to know to launch and grow a business from incorporation to networking to exit strategies.  The discussion will talk about how to get money, how to use the internet, how to avoid common mistakes and how to cash in.

Teri uses analogies from the life of Olympic swimming legend, Michael Phelps, along with a visual presentation and movie clips to illustrate the point that Leadership Education is not only a way of life; but an option for educating that has no parallel.

Children like to do what they can do; they want to do what they think they can do, and they hate to do what they think they cannot do.  If you want excited and enthusiastic children who learn well, you must understand these key laws of motivation, and focus on the essential requirement of relevancy. If it matters, children will learn it, and if it doesn’t, they won’t.  This session will enlighten you with specific ways to find and create relevancy for children, even when they have no apparent interest.

Have you found yourself focusing on lectures, tutorials, and colloquia because that is what seems to fit the “academic environment”?  Most of us have adequate experience in these learning environments but hope that the coaching our children receive in music and sports will suffice.  Learn to use this precious environment!  Find out why it is the very best environment for giving our scholars vision for who they

The Founding Fathers of the United States were unequivocally committed to the necessity of an educated populace in order to preserve liberty throughout the nation.

Have you not read a book since college?

Come receive some down to earth, real tips that can help you tackle your education. 

You are the outlier, the one that stands out as markedly different from the rest of the group. You are pursuing a world class education, but the world is not going to hand you greatness just because you’re smart.

Logic is as fundamental to argument, persuasion and language as mathematics is to physics, accounting and engineering.  Yet, logic is one of the most neglected of all disciplines.  Children and adolescents who learn logic read better, write better, test better and think better after studying logic than before.  Logic is essential to persuasion and credibility.  This presentation will discuss logic education and give

Have you had experiences like mine?  You go to a great TJ Ed forum or seminar and are inspired by the possibilities.  But then you go home to face the diapers, dishes, and dirty laundry of the day to day.  You ask yourself searching questions like:  How do I put this together?  How does TJ Ed fit into real life?  How do I find time to get my own education and still make a li

Change your state, change your life!  If my state of being really is everything, how do I become aware of what state I am in?  Once I know what state I am in, how do I change it?  How can I maintain an empowering state and uplift all those around me rather than drag them down?  Come discover a new you!  We will be exploring these answers and more.  I will warn you though, that you just may be a different person coming out of this experience than you were before!  Come join the fun!

Say Go Be Do:  One Moment, One Decision....that changes everything!  Come learn how to be a person of ACTION, that "thing" that makes a 5,000 per cent difference!

For those who enjoy writing or for those who don’t, this concrete method of teaching and learning stylistic variety will seem almost like magic.  Useful at the elementary level and equally useful for the university student, this approach to sentence pattern mastery is powerful!  Likely you’ll ask, “Why didn’t I learn this when I was in school?”  The words “writing style” will take on a whole new dimension.

One definition of leadership is that the leader is simply the best in any field.  To be the best, we must be willing to submit ourselves to living a lifestyle of greatness.  If we really want greatness, lets PROVE IT!
