Autobiography of self-help author and motivational speaker. Cannot find evidence the subject meets the notability guideline WP:AUTHOR or has been the subject of sufficient coverage to meet the general notability guideline. Unaddressed notability concerns dating back to 2006. If there were adequate sources on this topic, four years is enough time to rustle some up. The purpose of the article is likely promotional, but G11 is likely to be declined and PROD will probably be contested. -- Rrburke (talk) 16:41, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: After a google search of his name and books I've come up empty. I can't find any sort of notability online and I am surprised this has existed since 2006. I found a mention on a website advertising his books that he is ranked "#1 Motivational Speaker by Google" but I don't think Google ranks motiviational speakers nor would it neccessarily be a reliable source on such things if it did. I also read on the same page that he owns one of the world's largest gyms, but I could not find any support for the claim. Most of what I found was self published articles or advertising. I could not find anything worthy of article inclusion.--v/r - T P 16:58, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
