Overcoming Adversity Professional Speaker to Revolutionize Your World - A Keynote To Empower You!

Dec. 11, 2007 - PRLog -- Beyond Paul's initial lifelong struggles documented below, scroll down and read about his magnificent accomplishments and worldwide service in some of the most devastated regions on earth.

Paul F. Davis was born with pneumonia, after which he lived in an oxygen tent until he gained the strength to endure the outside elements. Paul cried so much during his infancy, he gave himself a hernia which required surgery to repair.

Once in the earth instead of ceasing, Paul's struggles only intensified. His mother divorced his dad and became an alcoholic and drug addict. Growing up, Paul says, "My mom was either in one of three places: the bar getting drunk, in jail behind bars, or in a mental ward receiving rehabilitation."

In the absence of his mother and father, Paul grew up with his maternal grandparents. Though Paul's grandparents adored and cared wonderfully for him, they simultaneously battled to help Paul's mother recover from substance abuse and mental illness caused by it.  This was very embarrassing and difficult for Paul to endure as a youth growing up.

When Paul's father remarried and gained custody of him, Paul had a hard time getting along with his step-mother who refused to pamper and spoil him as did his grandparents.  Once Paul's parents relocated him from Orlando to live in the country, at the age of 12 years Paul battled childhood depression and for a short while even contemplated suicide he so hated his life.  

Nevertheless Paul determined to cultivate inner happiness, overcome his circumstances, and make something of his life. Paul became the most-improved student in 6th grade, excelled at baseball making the all-stars and leading his team to 1st place, winning the most games of any pitcher in the league.

Paul also reconciled with his step-mother who today he affectionately calls "Mom" and has a special relationship with.  As for his grandparents, Paul during his adult life cared for them for 2 years before they passed as Paul didn't want to put them in a nursing home after they were so good to him growing up.

Though Paul after 5 years of marriage suffered a horrible divorce due to his ex-wife's infidelity and adulterous affair, he forgave her and happily moved on with his life. During his personal ground zero, Paul wrote Breakthrough For a Broken Heart empowering people just like him to overcome their disappointments and blossom into their dreams!

Today Paul is again happily married to the love of his life Karla, a gorgeous Canadian who is all he ever dreamed of in a wife.  The two are traveling throughout the globe revolutionizing their world, making an amazing difference in the lives of people everywhere they go!

Other notable accomplishments of Paul's are:

- Paul worked at Ground Zero in New York City the first week of 9/11, two stops from Brooklyn Heights where Paul used to live while attending law school.  The night of the attack, Paul drove a rental car up to NYC from Orlando, FL as all airports were shut down for national security reasons.

- Paul helped a Muslim young man rebuild his home at the tsunami epicenter in Indonesia and spoke to tribal groups in Wamena who are "naked and not ashamed."

- Paul comforted victims of genocide in Rwanda and Burundi where 1.2 million people were slaughtered.

- Paul spoke to leaders in East Timor during the war for independence before the UN recognized the new nation.

- Paul addressed University students and monks in Myanmar working together to achieve democracy.

- Paul spoke throughout war-torn East Africa journeying deep into the "bush" where villagers have never seen a white man.

- Paul lived in and lectured throughout India and China the two largest populaces on earth.

- Paul journeyed to Pakistan twice since 9/11 to speak to large audiences about peace, non-violence, and reconciliation.
