He has developed an entire library of world-class training programs, books and learning resources like the Personal Strategic Plan that are designed to make the heart sing, the mind expand and the spirit soar!

To support his belief in the importance of goal setting and focus, Gary has established and sponsored two nationally recognized events: Youth Goals Education Week, a unique opportunity for kids and teens to learn about goal setting and its influence on their future, and New Year's Resolutions Week, an insightful series of activities designed to encourage people to set goals for their lives.

His personal philosophy can be summarized into two words: Everything Counts!™ He believes in sweating the small stuff, and teaches that every action, word and thought either moves you toward or away from your goals, mission and ultimate legacy; that every moment offers an opportunity for advancement or retreat.

When Gary speaks and writes, he does so from the heart, with warmth and humor. His unique gift is to speak to an audience and communicate with the heart of each person as if they were alone having an important, intimate conversation. A polished storyteller, he has a way of making the seemingly complex, easy to understand.

Gary, his wife Erika, son Ryan, and daughter Libby live in Tampa, Florida with their two wonder-dogs Beefcake and Pork chop.

Before we get into that, what I want to do is, tell you little bit about my background about the company. As I mentioned, the company name is The Goals Guy, and, this was set up approximately about ten years ago and my intention very simply was to create methodologies to help people ,to really get control over their lives and their businesses, and I am happy to say, over the course of last ten years, we are now doing business of more than 60% of Fortune 500, but I have worked with a number of professionals, sports teams and entertainers, that the materials that I have created, books and seminars and so forth. I know a number of books that are in multiple languages, the biggest one, biggest seller is, What are your goals which is in 14 languages and collectively theres more than four million books all worldwide . We are pleased with the success of our experience but more importantly the impact that we had on the people lives.

My background, I went to school with Turkish University. My initial intent was to play a professional football, thats what, my dream was going to be, and that didnt work out just for physical reasons, bad knee happened to me, but what I did do is, I focused in on starting a business and over the course of a number of years, I started and sold a few entrepreneurial enterprises, and eventually it led me to realize truly where my strengths and where my passion were, which was understating strategy, implementation plans and finding effective ways, which you share them with people and organizations worldwide.
