What would you say to a young kid who dreamed of making people laugh for a living but wasn’t funny?

– In 1992 Darren LaCroix, bombed miserably in a comedy club in Boston, MA. As he walked off stage, the headliner that night said, “Don’t quit your day job.”
– Without a funny bone in his body and a willingness to fail, Darren pursued his childhood dream of making people laugh.
– Nine years later, he out-spoke 25,000 contestants from 14 countries and was crowned the 2001 World Champion of Public Speaking with a very funny speech. Not only that, but people are talking about his “unforgettable” speech two decades later!
How did he do it? What was his strategy? 17 Minutes to Your Dream.
