Let’s Rock & Roll!

I’m coming back to Bogie’s Night Club at the Westlake Village Inn on “one seventeen, eleven” (January 17, 2012) from 5:30 to 7:30 pm for a “Happier Hour” performance with my friends.

Guitarist Dave Heroux will be there and so will other singers, guitarists and fun-loving people. Make sure you are one of them! Mark your calendars today for Tuesday, January 17th.

You’ll still have time for dinner or other plans after the music so please join us to make some music and purge the Sleigh-bell sounds till next season. And if you can, Dine with us! The menu at Bogie’s is excellent.

Email me to let us know you’re coming, and so that Bogie’s can have the servers we will need: jim@cathcart.com. Bogie’s requested a guesstimate of how many will come so they can staff accordingly. Just drop me a quick text or email.

This will be a happy hour of classic tunes from:

Neil Diamond, The Beatles, John Denver, Glenn Campbell, Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Kinks, Mammas & Pappas, Simon & Garfunkel, Ricky Nelson, Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Garth Brooks, Jim Croce, Credence Clearwater, The Eagles, The Animals, Beach Boys, The Rolling Stones, Everly Brothers, Loving Spoonful, Peter Paul & Mary, Jason Mraz, and Paul Revere & the Raiders!

Come and join us on Tuesday, January 17, 2012 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm at Bogie’s in the Westlake Village Inn. (Near Thousand Oaks, CA just off Hwy 101 at the Lindero Cyn Exit on Agoura Road.)

Our next 101 Leaders Alliance “Prosperity Series” seminar is scheduled for Thursday, May 6, 2010 from 6:30pm to 9pm at the beautiful Four Seasons Westlake Village Hotel. The topic is Optimism and our special guest speaker is:

Dr. Terry Paulson, CSP, CPAE

This inspirational and practical program helps you trade feelings of helplessness and frustration for flexible optimism, innovative resourcefulness, and strategic persistence. In the good and the tough times, optimism makes a difference. Optimists are realists who are the first to admit they have problems, and the first to do something about them. Wouldn’t you rather be an optimist than a pessimist? Learn how you can claim your optimism advantage and change your life on and off the job. As a leader, you’ll learn how to reframe challenges as opportunities and to turn downturns into strategic progress. You’ll learn how to turn your anxiety and worries into attitudes and actions that produce results. This breakthrough program goes beyond hyperbole and hype to address the principles and practices you can leverage in making optimism work for you and your organization. Don’t miss this opportunity for you and your team to master simple but powerful truths optimists live every day.

Discover how easy it is to:

Manage your own motivation—Build on what’s working and learn from what’s not

Maximize your purposeful impact—Position, Perform and Persist

Foster optimism in those you lead and live with

Make today count by turning adversity and setbacks into opportunities

Learn, Unlearn and Relearn—Work to be good at what’s needed

Become a problem solver instead of a problem evader

Master attitude adjusters that work magic the moment you need them

Choose gratitude over griping

Access your resourcefulness and persistence to leverage every success

Transform your worries into constructive attitudes and actions

Take your life choices seriously and yourself lightly
