The magic of your potential: How I transformed a disability into a triumphant life
Tim Piccirillo

n this lively and entertaining presentation, Tim Piccirillo shows participants, through his personal story of growing up with Chronic
Motor Tic Disorder, along with co-occurring conditions including a generalized anxiety disorder, dysthymia, and obsessive-
compulsive tendencies that everyone has potential and a severe disability does not have to impede your success! Using some creative
magic, a liberal dose of humor and storytelling, Tim proves to participants that it’s not what happens to you in life that matters, it’s
what you do about it that makes the difference and that changing your attitude toward life and happiness can be as easy as changing
your socks if you make the commitment. He also shows participants basic success principles that they can use to better themselves
in their personal and professional lives. This program is not only motivational and inspiring but very entertaining as well. It is
appropriate as a kick-off keynote to “fire up” attendees for a conference or as a closing keynote to send participants out with a smile.
