Dana LaMon Biography

Dana LaMon is a professional speaker who has been motivating and inspiring audiences around the world for over twenty years. A retired administrative law judge, he is a graduate of Yale University and USC Law School. He earned the title of World Champion of Public Speaking from Toastmasters International in 1992 and is a Distinguished Toastmaster, the highest level of educational achievement in the organization.

At a young age, LaMon lost most of his eyesight, which continued to decline until he became completely blind at age 24. Growing up with 11 brothers and sisters, LaMon often heard them say, “You can’t do that, you’re blind.” However, LaMon never let this stop him. He never took the “Why Me?” attitude; instead, he embraced life fully.

The author of four books, LaMon's thought-provoking messages on overcoming challenges, self-worth and risk taking reveal his vision and great insight into human nature and social issues. He has spoken to audiences across the country and from Asia to Australia to South Africa.

Dana LaMon Speaking Topics

  • Special Eyes

    Everybody has impact on the people and environment around them, but we can never see or know the full extent of that impact. We can, however, see the potential for impact when we develop the acuity of our Special Eyes. With Imagination, Introspection, and Insight we can see what can be and how we can make what can be a reality.

  • What Life Will Give You If You're Prepared To Take It

    Abundance is more than the mere accumulation of things or wealth. It exists beyond the attainment of success or the reaching of one's goals. Abundance is soulful contentment. it is success accompanied with joy. To live in abundance one must adopt four immutable laws of the universe as the foundation for action: The Law of Abundance. The Empowerment Principle. The Law of Possibilities. The Fullness Principle.

  • What You See Is What You Get

    Self-esteem is a factor that will determine the fullness of your living. A lack of self-esteem will create a void that is quickly filled with failure and disappointment. Your self-esteem is your image of yourself as seen in a positive light. To maintain a positive self-image: Identify yourself by who you are, not what you are. Assess your abilities realistically. View your worth as positive.

  • Extra-Ordinary

    If you expect less than ordinary from an individual, you will consider such person to be "extraordinary" when he or she performs beyond your expectation. A person is not extraordinary because he or she, despite a disability or other disadvantage, can surpass a substandard expectation. The "EXTRA" of an extraordinary individual is found in his or her capacity to do the following: EX-Excel in performance. T-Take responsibility. R-Revise the approach. A-Ask for help.

  • The Driving Force

    Seldom, if ever, is the road to success described as a downhill coasting to the warm sands of a sunny beach. Success is frequently depicted atop a rugged mountain. The climb to success is steep, hard and treacherous. To get you to the top despite the challenges that you will inevitably encounter: D-Desire will ignite DRIVE. R-Resolve will keep you on course. I-Initiative will accelerate your journey. V-Vision will enable you to avoid barriers. E-Endurance will insure your safe arrival. You must persist until the DRIVE to success is finished.

  • Changing With Change

    A Personal Paradigm: Our external environment is constantly changing, and we change along with it. It is sudden and/or dramatic change that throws us off into a resistance mode. The attributes of the person who can cope with change are: Character. The ability to approach change from the inside out; Attitude. Looking at change as an opportunity instead of a challenge; Vision. The ability to keep in mind a clear picture of the desired results; Adaptability. Flexible enough to make adjustments to changed circumstances; Excellence. Setting and holding a standard of excellence in all situations; Rejuvenescence. The ability to maintain mental sharpness and regain youthful enthusiasm.
