Hello, world. Welcome to discover your talent to do what you love. I'm creator and host, Don Hutchison.

Every day, I interview someone from around the world who has discovered his talents

to do work he loves to create a life of success, satisfaction, and freedom. We created this

podcast to provide you with the inside, strategies, and tools to propel your career to the next

level. In honor of the four-year anniversary of our podcast,

over the next several weeks, we will be sharing with you the most popular interviews from our first

77 shows. We hope you enjoy them, and we look forward to sharing the journeys of more

fascinating guests soon. After careening headlong into a tree at 45 miles per hour and suffering a major brain injury

and many broken bones, Steve believes every interaction with another person is a bonus that

might never have happened.

It's a powerful way to live, he says, and get through whatever comes up in your daily life.

I'm delighted to bring you our featured guest, Steve H. Lawton. Welcome, Steve.

Hi. Great to be here. It is our pleasure. Steve, are you using your talents doing work

that you love? I am. Okay, we want to hear the whole story. Steve H. Lawton holds a BS and MS degree in mechanical engineering from Texas A&M, as well as an MBA from St. Edward's University.

He has 27 years of business experience in roles from an engineer in the astronaut office at NASA to an executive at Dell.

He's the author of Head First, A Crash Course in Positivity, the story about how his

attitude literally saved his life from a near-fatal skiing accident.

He enjoys helping others by sharing his story and practical advice on how to create a positive

mindset, lead with positivity, and achieve better outcomes for individuals and organizations.

He and his wife of 26 years, Deanna, have two teenage children and they've grown quite fond of.

So, Steve, what a nice, what an interesting career.

And we want to know what you're up to now that has you engaged and excited if you would.
