Presentations

Comedy As A Way of Life
"You don't just perform comedy; you live it. It's something you do onstage and off; whether you're in the business or not; and anyone with the nerve can do it."

Adventures in Entrepreneurship
"Entrepreneurship isn't just about money or success, it's an extreme sport."

Motivation Debunked: Motivation For The Highly Unmotivated
Breslin offers a bracing, funny, but useful alternative to the usual motivational lecture. Utilizing his own experiences and case histories, he shows how you can sleep until noon, party like it's going out of style, delegate the dirty work, and still be successful in your chosen field - if you choose the right field! Includes a debunking of The Secret and other so-called "positive thinking" seminars
