Diana Nightingale: Stay Tenacious

The Wow Factor

Diana Nightingale, widow of Earl Nightingale, continues to spread the personal development message from Earl's recording The Strangest Secret as she feels it is as vital today as it has ever been. She is the author of Holiday on Earth: Your Journey into Meaning, a speaker, and a retreat and seminar leader, who works internationally to help others understand that ‘you are what you think about.’ Diana loves to share how people can discover and identify their unpolished acres of diamonds and turn them into opportunities by listening to and reading Earl’s teachings.

Diana joins me today to share how she met and married her husband and why she took some convincing to even have dinner with him at first. She discusses her career in realty and how a colleague initially introduced her to Earl Nightingale's work on personal development before she had ever met him. Diana also shares why she took the opportunity to work on a project very close to her heart during the COVID-19 pandemic quarantine, which will enable her to bring Earl's work on personal development to a wide range of people via the Internet.

“It doesn't matter what you achieve in this world if you’re not a good person.” - Diana Nightingale
