What People Are Saying

"I've covered the sports beat for nearly 40 years of my life and worked with all the great ones firsthand. Jackie Roosevelt Robinson, Muhammed Ali, Johnny McEnroe... you name them. But I must tell you the most remarkable athlete I have ever seen - ever known - is Craig MacFarlane."
Howard Cosell


"For so many people Craig Macfarlane is a torch in the darkness."
Dave Anderson, Sports Columnist,
New York Times



"Craig captures his audience with an uplifting message of courage and determination through his positive attitude and zest for life."
David Glass,
Former President & CEO
Wal-Mart Stores Inc.



"Most people see the world through their eyes. Craig sees the world through his heart. Craig's unique ability is to remove the blindness we face when we view the world exclusively through what we can see. Instead, he replaces it with greater inner sight of perseverance, respect, individuality, desire and enthusiasm. At times, I have found myself envious of Craig's inner vision."
Salvatore M. Capizzi,
Corporate Executive



"A special book (Inner Vision) from a special person, one we can all learn from."
Jon Saraceno,
USA Today



"Over the years I have had many enjoyable experiences with Craig, from whitewater rafting in West Virginia to letting him drive my Formula speed boat in the Gulf Of Mexico. Craig's not a bad captain of a boat as long as you don't mind driving in circles!"
David B. Skinner,
Regional Leader,
Edward Jones



"For twelve years I've witnessed the energy and inspiration of Craig MacFarlane. Some may look at Craig and feel sorry for him. I look at Craig and feel a sense of jealous admiration. We all dream of leaving this world having made it a better place. The irony is that Craig has not only done that, but actually does it on a daily basis."
Rick Sherman,
President/CEO
Fortune Hotels



"Craig is more than a motivational speaker, he is an inspiration to all who hear his words. Many individuals have the ability to motivate. Few are blessed with the gift to inspire."
Shawn Daily,
General Partner,
Edward Jones



"Craig has proven you can accomplish anything through hard work, dedication and a lot of spirit."
Wayne Gretzky


"Your humour, wisdom and wit captured my attention and that of the entire audience... You have a rare gifted ability to transform your life's experiences into a message that demonstrates the importance of courage, determination and perserverance."
Royal Bank


"You touched their hearts and souls with your ability to 'see' and encourage the possibilities that exist in each and every one of us."
Carlson Wagonlit Travel


"Please feel free to use this letter as a reference with any of your potential clients. Any corporation or organization that is going through a tough period would be wise to consider allowing you to spend a few minutes telling your story. I know it made a difference for us at Coca-Cola just by listening to the buzz at the conclusion of the meeting."
Coca Cola


"You really did a great job of taking some of our key issues and weaving them into your presentation. It was very professionally done!"
Town Of Markham, Ontario, Canada


"Your opening one-hour address was one of joy sprinkled with a little sadness. It made everyone quietly reflect on their own lives measured against yours and served as a huge motivator for what lies ahead for us both personally and professionally."
Energizer Canada
