Hello, world, and happy holidays to you and yours from the Discover Your Talent podcast team.

I'm creator and host, Don Hutchison. Our gift to you this week is three encore interviews

of some of the most popular shows from the last 12

months we hope you enjoy them and we look forward to sharing the journeys of more fascinating

guests in the coming year i'm delighted to bring you our featured guest steve h lawton welcome

steve hi well 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 have grown quite fond of them.

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. Yeah, sure. So probably the thing that I'm most excited about

is getting the opportunity to share my story about the experience I had with the skiing accident

almost three years ago and how my attitude literally did save my life and just sharing what I

learned as a part of that experience with others and the practical things that all of us can do

to improve our attitudes and get better results in our own lives.

Yes, good.

Well, we certainly want to hear the whole story.
