Column: School board's Ailes has power to motivate

This column ties into a live call-in talk show, Another Point of View, which will be telecast tonight on Channel 10 from 8-9 p.m.

If you think you can, you can. If you think you can't, you're right. If you think you can't but it would improve your life if you could, then you must. Confused? It's all part of a positive thinking mind set that has improved the lives of millions of people around the world. How is that some people are hopeless or homeless while others are happy, healthy and wealthy? Tonight's guest will talk about the fascinating differences between success and failure.

You may know Dr. Gary Ailes as a popular Carson City veterinarian or as a trustee of the Carson City School Board, but have you met Gary Ailes, the motivational leadership coach?

His avocation takes him to cities throughout Europe and the United States as a course instructor for and with Anthony Robbins, the author of "Unlimited Power" and "Awaken the Giant Within."

Is wealth a lucky accident? Is success the result of a person's fortunate circumstances? Is it possible to take immediate control of your mental, emotional, physical and financial destiny? Get the answers tonight when we discuss how decisions - not conditions - shape our future.

In 1974 Doctor Gary came to Carson City to enter the practice of veterinary medicine with Woody Allen. He wanted to be in an area where he could indulge his hunting and fishing hobbies and be close to the coast for scuba diving fun.

He and his wife, Ruth, have three grown children. No grandbabies yet! When Gary found his way to the Robbins seminars, he was at a crossroads in his professional career. Thinking he wanted a change but not sure just what that change should be, he started looking.

His journeys of seek and search led him to his first seminar in 1993. Fortunately for his many patients, Gary discovered that changing careers wasn't the answer.

The keys to health, wealth and accomplishment include learning to manage frustration, rejection, financial pressure and complacency. How can disappointment be turned to fascination and why would massive amounts of setbacks lead to success? Learn why it's not so much the hand we're dealt, but how we deal with it. Check it out tonight as we talk about our unlimited powers within.
