Small Business Stories - Be Someone INC.

Ivy Hartman: Welcome! We’re at the Nabo Conference in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm Ivy Hartman and with me is Orrin Hudson, a motivational speaker and author of Want to Move at a Time, How to Play and Win a Chess and Life. Orrin, how did you get into that correlating chess to educating young people in their life? Orrin C. Hudson: With 30 years to go I want Walton to an all black high school in his light. Teacher told me that I was making the wrong move and then I say what do you mean? He said, well, every move you make has consequences and he said that you come up the school and I’ll show you what I mean and so he taught me chess for 4 years and it save my life so I owe my life to a teacher. Ivy Hartman: How, what have you done the help your chess came grow but also your business grow and what are you doing to and grab this with young people? Orrin C. Hudson: Well, my mission in life is the save a million children and my method is heads up, pants up, grade up. We teach in children how to think strategically about their future and test is an excellent tool to teach decision-making skills. I believe the greatest gift you can give children is the ability to make the decisions. Ivy Hartman: How does chess helps them with that? Orrin C. Hudson: Well, I took forty two kids the other day. We took them to the lobby every three hours. You could he a pen drop in a lobby there because they will focus, they will concentrate, they were thinking and they were using their brains. The only thing that can take you to your goals in this world is your mind as effective use and flowering tool on the good ideas of the garage. Ivy Hartman: Okay, you’re a business owner, a small business owner, an author, a motivational speaker. You started this path that you chose by a teacher teaching you how to play chess. What have you done in order to protest the late pulp keep on the right path and any key to success that may be chess’s touch you or that you would like to path on some of these something else. Orrin C. Hudson: Well, with chess teaches you is to deal with what’s in front of you. I’ll play safety people. They have there simultaneously and ladies how that you want to fit the game? And I said I only deal with what’s in front of me. I don’t deal with the other, a move, I deal with it, and I move I deal with it. And so the key to success in life and chess is to be present to be in the moment just deal with what’s in the morning, deal on what’s in front of you and so most people set in life because of broken focus so the key to success is focus. You got to be in the moment don’t look to the left; don’t look to the right, stay focus. Ivy Hartman: But you’ll also be looking forward, don’t you think and have a plan or a goal-a long term goal- as well as the present? Orrin C. Hudson: Yeah you got this focus on your goal and you got that have a local head but you don’t want to look to forehead. Go when you drive it, when you’re travelling from Atlanta to California, you can’t see the How does in so this look, this all you need is 30 feet so just focus on the 30 feet in front of you. You get too caught up and what’s going to I mean then you may not ever get there. Don’t cross the bridge until you get tools. Ivy Hartman: And then clearly, chess can teach you about consequences by veering from that path. If you take a different path, then you should and there’s your going to make consequence for those actions just those in chess. You may lose or checkmate, or whatever. Orrin C. Hudson: Yeah, every move you make has consequences and when you listen to the wrong people, you’re moving the wrong direction so you make sure you get around a person who is smarter than you. If you’re the smartest peson on your team, you do anything and so you want to get around people who can add value, who could teach you things you don’t know. Ivy Hartman: But your also leading people whom need that assistant so don’t you think being a leader among followers sometimes is a good thing as well as aligning yourself with leaders. Orrin C. Hudson: Exactly. We’re taking young people to be leaders and to learn from the best and all readers are leaders so you want to read. I try to read three books a week because we’ll know that none of just power but now is a long as not enough. We want to take action on every positive idea and move in the right direction. Ivy Hartman: Talk about your background as an Alabama state trooper. I mean there was really an impact that changes your life. You had a career before you decided to do this. Orrin C. Hudson: Right, well 7 people was shot execution stub in the hand of the robbery for $2000 and I've decided a young people are going up with the wrong kind of cash so the new currency on the plan that is cash with the K knowledge added to skill to have it. So cash is king. This is the cash we need to go out to become with the young people are following and following and making the wrong move. And so we want to educate our young people and let them know that the new currency on the planet is cash with the K. Ivy Hartman: And another one other than cash, I know one of your mantras is heads up, pants up, grades up. Here is great testimonial or example of the young ma that you’ve been mentoring to put and get a promotion and what happen with that. Orrin C. Hudson: Well he said even working five years on this job and it won’t promote them. They won’t get on the race the total he need to cut his hair and pull his pants up. He is now making double what he was making and so that’s what is all about. I tell them the appearances and everything. Ivy Hartman: How do you approach that when you’re mentoring youth that they really individuality to them is everything so how do you counteract that obviously believing proof? This guy actually got what he is going and attains this will by doing that? Do you think he sacrifices individuality, or? Orrin C. Hudson: Well, he thought he had constitutional rights to dress how he wants to dress that he has this all but I tell him people would judge you by your appearance because if you make them look good, then I’ll make you look good. So it’s all about adding value. Elton John sings the song. This is called as Circle of Life. In this song, he says we all agree as we’re doing the stampede you should never take more than you give. So the key to success is to never take more the always give value. Always give more, always be amazing. Here’s what? Excellence is not enough. You have to be amazing. You can win 14 out of 16 game in a pail as still get far why? Excellence is not enough. You got to be amazing. Ivy Hartman: And then that could be the total package. Whatever that mens for none of our player or another employee or another… Orrin C. Hudson: Well it means you go to extra mile. It means doing more than you pay too. If you do just enough to get paid that you get far, you got to do with all and above. You got to be amazing. Ivy Hartman: Because there’s always somebody else that you can come along and try it to be… Orrin C. Hudson: They will switch to ATNT on you. You’ll switch over because you got amazed and amazing to go on that it’s with. Ivy Hartman: There are their audiences… Orrin C. Hudson: Right! So when you’re amazing, it eliminates the competition. Ivy Hartman: Talk about your book one move at a time and how to play and win chess at chance and in life? Where can people get it and what can, what are some of the things that you highlight in here? Orrin C. Hudson: Well, I have twenty life lessons. I’ll teach you how to move and play chess from the beginner to the end and also is twenty life lessons for example, what are the life lessons in a book? You only can get it and be some on that org by the way. Or they can get there at my web suite at this time. But one of my amazing lessons I teach is that on a chess board, 90% or maybe a 100% of the people eyes there takes there 64 swear than on chess board. Well, there are more than 64 swears but most people don’t know that its 204 square what most people don’t think outside the box. So the key concept is to think outside the box. Another life lesson that we teach in this book is that the greatest mistake, the biggest mistake you ever can do in your entire life is to give up. So the key concept is to stand the game and never give up. Ivy Hartman: I love that your forward is written by Jack Ham but who’s the author of the Successful Friends and of course they know for as chicken soup for the solo series of book. You know, you’ve known them for a while. Talk about your recent in or action with them. Orrin C. Hudson: With Jack Gate he call me up when they he said, listen Orrin I'm having an 8-day training in Las Vegas and I would love you to come as my special guest and Alex will pay. And I said. I’ll be there and he said by the way when you get here, I'm going to show you how to play chess where I have a Ph.D. from Harvard and I'm going to beat you up. I said, well I have a husk to bring them home from the Hudson Project well let’s go. And so I was able to win the game and I was, I taught Jack, after Jack I said nature is neutral. That on any matter where you come from is where you’re going and I was able to beat them although I was boozing in materialize but see inches, you get to keep the main thing, the main thing and so Jack out caught up in material grab and pieces. It’s not about grab and pieces, it’s about caps and the cane. And I believe but the mover myself and check mate this king. Ivy Hartman: we would talk about a little bit of camera about character education and but I think the best of the rude of what your principles are. Talk about they’re speaking right by playing chess and character education. Orrin C. Hudson: well, a character education of how about chess, we got there’s no life I the chess board. Out of ten on one of my student, I said that I have checkmate into even though there’s not. But see there’s no life in the chess board so out a few minutes, you go and cay what you do. So the answer was there all along. It just built character because it’s all about true. And so the greatest thing that we can give young people is let them know is the more or development of the child upon determining success. It’s all about developing character and doing what’s right because this right not because you’re on the surveillance. Ivy Hartman: Thank you Orrin for being with us. We’d love that you’re taking this pro active approach versus the reactive trying to solve the problem that really starting at the root of the problem so that it would perpetuate itself and grow. Orrin C. Hudson: Thank you! Ivy Hartman: You’re welcome. Keep it right here as we continue our coverage at the Nabo Conference and wonderful leaders and motivational speakers here like Orrin on sbtv.com where small business is our only business.
