Kory was born and raised in Toronto, Canada —one of the most culturally diverse cities in the entire world— home to the Bluejays, Leafs, and Raptors. Kory attributes his successful career in music as a composer, pianist, songwriter, singer, and educator to the fact that he uses the “mindset of an entrepreneur to temper art with business”. His latest achievement is becoming a published author of the book, “Quiet Determination - 15 ways to Break the Barriers to your Untapped Success!” He's been educating, inspiring and entertaining audiences at trade shows, conventions and seminars for over 30 years. Kory's life completely changed the day he received this letter in the mail some 20 years ago. "Dear Kory....I have admired your quiet persistent determination and attention to detail. It is more than talent; it's mature determination. I would do well to apply the same to my own life. God bless all your efforts." Neil S. "That letter was the impetus for me to change the focus of my life-long career as a composer, pianist and singer to that of a motivational speaker and published author. I had to find out what Neil meant by 'Quiet Determination' and my book, of the same name, was the outcome of my journey of discovery."

Bernie Godette, is an old student of my CNA/STNA class and he was a delight to have in class. What struck me about him was his laser- focused attentive attitude to not only the classroom studies but to basic nursing skills as well. He also exhibited leadership skills...who knows, maybe that's because of his training in the army...thank you for your service Bernie and good luck in your career goals of becoming an RN! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nurse-amy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/nurse-amy/support

Kory Livingstone is an author, and Juno-nominated jazz composer, pianist, teacher, and speaker living in the Greater Toronto Area. But before the episode can dig deep into music, we start with his parents Kay Livingstone, theatre actress and community activist and newspaper publisher George Livingstone. Kory is carrying on their legacy, working as a public speaker himself, and Michael ends up fascinated by Kory’s thoughts on ethnic neighbourhoods and foundational atrocities of this continent. They also discuss the value of diversity and how difficult it can be to pursue it. Confronting systemic and cultured racism is difficult in modern Canada, in part because we’re so willing to address it in good faith. When the conversation does shift to music, it’s about the joy and beauty found in form that Kory discovered in his teenage years listening to Bach and Bill Evans. Music is the canary in the coal mine of modern life; North America’s mine should be shuttered. This continent’s scene for jazz is losing not only spaces and airwaves, but the meaning of the word. Meanwhile, we learn that listening to the great composers is to be invited into the workshop of a great mind - the power to see genius at work, hearing it one element at a time and then being struck by it all at once. However, musicianship is more than enjoying good work, or participating in beauty. To practice as a musician is to practice the skills for success in all aspects of life. Which leads to Kory’s book Quiet Determination, which started with compliment he got after a concert from a member of the venue’s staff and grew into a series of strategies to turn talent and art into mastery in your life.

Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, he's a Juno Award nominee who has a lifelong calling as a pianist/composer and songwriter coupled with a career as an entrepreneur and educator. “Just do it” was his philosophy long before Nike adopted it as their mantra. As a “keynote artist”, he underscores the emotional aspects his keynote addresses with original songs performed at the piano. One of his achievements is his book, Quiet Determination, Unlocking the Gates to Unlimited Success. In his book he relates the tendency most people have to overthink "how we're going to do it" to the point of forgetting the original vision and giving up on it before it has a chance for fruition. "I'm not a millionaire, nor am I losing any sleep over how to become one. I'm not famous, nor am I dying become an celebrity. Success means different thing to different people. We've been brainwashed by the media to think that success is defined as how much money we have, how many things we possess. You only have to look at the number rich and famous people who are generally depressed, dissatisfied and unhappy with their miserable, wretched lives to see what I mean." "Quiet Determination" by Kory Livingstone. Kory has released six albums on his own independent record label, Crestant Records. His CD entitled You Were In My Eyes, a collection of eight original songs that tell stories about our everyday life experiences, the many faces of love, inspirational themes and the power of words. They Say It’s Wonderful is Kory’s response to popular demand from his fans. It contains vocal jazz standards and originals written by Kory. His self-titled CD Kory Livingstone is Kory’s first CD. It has a wide variety of instrumental tunes that Kory composed for solo piano up to full symphonic orchestra, from gospel to jazz and reggae. Kory's first business as an entrepreneur was founding the Toronto High School for the Performing Arts. It was the first school of it’s kind in Canada, pairing the study of the performing arts with academics. The world could use more Kory's. Kory's Website The Book! Quiet Determination

When I was watching the Kentucky Derby this past year, I wondered why I didn’t see any women in the race. I wondered if women have ever been in the race. (The answer is yes, and the number of female jockeys is six.) During my research for this interview, I slipped down a major rabbit hole and learned a ton about today's guest, former professional jockey and horse trainer, Diane Crump. On February 7th, 1969, Diane became the first woman to compete as a jockey in a professional race in the United States. She was also the first woman to ride in the Kentucky Derby in 1970, where she rode a horse called Fathom. These days, Diane runs her own business doing equine sales, which almosts seems like a horse and rider matchmaking service. If that wasn't all enough, she worked with author Mark Schrager on the upcoming book about her life called Diane Crump: A Horse Racing Pioneer’s Life In the Saddle. In this episode, Diane and I talk about all things equine and horse racing. Yes. All. The. Things. This includes women’s right to ride and gender (in)equality in horse racing. Plus, we talk about the importance of quiet determination and focused fascination. Diane also shares poignant insights about the freedom to follow (but not force) what’s in your heart and navigate all of the negativity. Seriously, Diane walks her talk for focusing and letting negativity roll right off of her. I so love talking to women who are not letting bullshit or burnout stop them. Diane is no exception. I am so happy to share this conversation with you. Check the links below to listen. For show notes and resources visit: https://www.vitalcorpswellness.com/blog/lvcs-0062-diane-crump

Accomplished pianist, composer, songwriter, and entrepreneur Kory Livingstone, author of the book Quiet Determination drops by and tells us what separates good business coaches from bad coaches, as well as what you should look for in a good coach. Display TranscriptRobert Plank: My guest today is Kory Livingstone. He's going to be talking to us about finding the right business coach and he seems like a pretty cool guy. He plays piano, does vocals, has a party band, The Fabulous Mercurys, so I can't wait to hear what cool business knowledge he plans on dropping. Welcome to the show, Kory. Kory Livingstone: Thank you for having me, nice to be here. Robert Plank: I'm glad to have you here. I really like when people put some or a lot of their personality into the things they have to say as opposed to just people saying I'm a business coach, I'm a turnaround coach and they don't really have much to say. I really like how the things that you have to say you've mixed them and combined them with your musician and the other business stuff you have to say as well. Kory Livingstone: Yeah, my core is a musician, but don't be fooled, oh, he's only a musician. My book which is Quiet Determination: Unlocking the Gates to Unlimited Success is based on the lessons that I learned while studying music. In order to be successful in music there's a mindset, there's things you have to do in order to be successful in music. Successful in music, successful in life is the theme of the book. These are the lessons that I learned while I was studying music and I apply them to everything I do in life. It's like a hammer. You can use a hammer to hammer in this type of nail, that type of nail, a screwdriver for this, that, all these things. These are the tools that are used in different situations. Whether you're building a house or a swimming pool or a garage or a wall or an addition, they all use the same hammer, the same tool. Just because you're a musician it doesn't mean the tools you use to be successful to become a musician are not applicable to tools you have to use to be a successful lawyer, a doctor, a mechanic, a maintenance man, it doesn't matter. You have to have certain tools or I should say a mindset to be successful in life, period. What I have discovered when I wrote my book all these tools... Actually, it's a mindset and you've got to have a certain mindset to be successful. Coaching you have to have a mindset to be coached, to be coachable. All the big businesses, all the big businesses right around the world they work on developing the talent within their own ranks either through seminars, conferences, take a course. This is coaching. It may come across as a seminar, whatever word you want to use, but the bottom-line is that it's coaching. They're trying to promote within their ranks, so they can really do... Everybody has talent. It's potential. Some of us use some of our talent, some of us use a lot of our talent, some of us use very little of our potential talent. It's there, so it's just a matter of getting it out of you and that's what a coach does. Robert Plank: That's cool. It seems like there's a lot of parallels and a lot of lessons that you learn from this area of being a musician that you now apply it in other areas is what you're saying. Kory Livingstone: Exactly, just as I had a music teacher, but really a music coach. Athletes, professional athletes have coaches. That's where a lot of people go wrong and think oh, gee, I'm not an athlete, so how can I have a coach, I don't need a coach. No, coaching goes right across, right across all walks of life, financial, even leadership. There's certain... Coaching is just an amalgamation of a whole bunch of different things; consulting, psychology, leadership, management, training, counseling. Now you don't have... This sounds like gee, in order to be a coach I should be a psychologist or something like that. No. Yes, psychologists are coaches,

Children's Corner: Quiet Determination, unlocking the gates to success (music) ~ with guest: Kory Livingstone Many people in North America and around the world question the value of a music education in their kid's life. School boards often slash music budgets, in favour of readin', writin' & ‘rithmetic budgets, when they find themselves in financial difficulty. Parents cite the excuse for not enrolling their children in piano, violin, guitar lessons etc., “ I can't afford it”. We all know that 99% of all parents are concerned with the future well-being of their children. That's why Moms & Dads all over the world encourage their kids to do well in school, listen to the teacher, go to college etc., all of this in the hopes that they'll acquire friends, get good jobs and ultimately be successful in their lives. However most parents, fail to recognize that it's not education in and of itself that augers well for success, but rather it's one's mindset that determines how successful you will be in life...for parents and children both. In his new book, “Quiet Determination, unlocking the gates to unlimited success!, Kory Livingstone talks about how mindset, rather than talent or education, is most responsible for our own success in life. Unfortunately for most people, having a mindset for success can't be purchased. It can only be developed. For more information visit: http://www.korylivingstone.com/
