I also got my Core Values.&nbsp;I was a man wandering&nbsp;through&nbsp;life and wondering why I never reached my potential. I was very&nbsp;self-absorbed&nbsp;without knowing it. Having a purpose&nbsp;makes me excited&nbsp;about&nbsp;waking up every morning. I love&nbsp;going to work and love giving back to society.&nbsp;I am in a great mood most of the time.

<strong>~  Cameron Williams, Training Team Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat I got out of my LD was the tools to reexamine my Purpose and Legacy as needed.&nbsp;I faced my shadows and can more easily recognize them to reassess my behavior and to switch to a more mature behavior.&nbsp;Honestly, I got more out of my LD than from the Sterling Men\u2019s Weekend and got a better value for the money spent.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>~ Fred Coburn, Training Team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFrom my LD I got a deeper connection with my emotions.&nbsp;I was able to feel more anger, pain, and forgive people who had hurt me in the past.&nbsp;I feel gratitude towards my father.&nbsp;I deeply understand what kind of man he is and what he did for me and our family.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong> ~ Parth Chandak, Training Team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI got that I had been living my life very recklessly and selfishly.&nbsp;I had to transform myself for my daughters and their futures.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>~ Kraig Beale, Production Team Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Legacy Discovery Weekend gave me a clear understanding of my values, purpose, and vision for how to create a Legacy of my own.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>~ Ramon Talley, LD Registration Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>What I Got From Being on a Team Supporting the LD<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat I\u2019ve gotten out of being on the LD Training Team is a deep appreciation of what goes into a course production, a deepening on the course material, training our team to produce a course, and fulfilling on the mission of MDI in causing greatness.\u201d <strong> ~ Miguel Enriquez, Training Team Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve gotten an immense amount of self-confidence and self-respect.&nbsp;A greater familiarity of the tools and the technology of the LD and when and how to leverage them.&nbsp;Specifically deepening my ability to pursue excellence and not be paralyzed by perfectionism and trusting myself to do so consistently.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;
