A MESSAGE WITH IMPACT 

As reported by the Trenton New Jersey Times 

"For 17 years, Jerry Traylor has come to these gatherings (corporate sales meetings, conventions, chamber lunches, etc.) with a different message: 'Don't do as I say. Do as I do.' 

"Traylor would seem an unlikely speaker at a gathering of gray-suited managers from Procter & Gamble, IBM, or DuPont (all places he has spoken).  "Traylor was born with cerebral palsy. But he was also born with an insatiable hunger to take on challenges, and overcome them.  

Traylor does not come to groups with a formula like "10 Steps to Being Successful." Instead, he simply tells his story, talks about what has driven him to to reject his "disability" with a vengeance, and urges his listeners to do the same.
