I'm a native of Haiti, but the World is my home and Humanity is my family. Today, people call me different names, they call me doctor, writer, professor and entrepreneur. I appreciate all these great titles, they describe my value, my accomplishments and the man I become, but who am really I? I am a prodigy orphan. Oh… Yeah! I lost my parents at early age, my mom passed away when I was 6 years old and my dad when I was 8. I was the last person my dad talked to before he died and he gave me the best advice ever saying,‘’ Son, please become a man of principle, a man of value, and a man of success.’’
As a young man, I struggled to survive, I was lonely, sad, devastated, but overall I was in love with life and people. My pain didn’t break me because I’m unbreakable, it didn’t stop me because I’m unstoppable, but it skilled and transformed me in who I become today. Our failure is mainly caused by our inability to know who we really are. Being an orphan and my father’s dying words have been my motivations and they have made all the difference in my life. I am not just my physical body, my titles, my possessions, my careers. Who I really am is divine love and that is infinite. Two things that really define great people: Their determination when they have nothing and their attitude when they have everything.
I become a transformational author, an entrepreneur, a language professor and a medical professional. I'm a winner of the 2014, 2015 Edition of ”50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading”. I'm the author of the book: “How to fly like an eagle” which teaches the 7 principles of the eagle to achieve success in everything in life.
My mission is to teach, to inspire, to love and to take care of people; teaching, inspiring, loving and caring are what I do best, and I can learn to do better. I will seek to learn, for learning is the basis for growth, and growing is the key to living. I will seek first to understand, for understanding is the key to finding value, and value is the basis for respect, decisions, and action. This should be my first act with my family, my patients, my clients and my business. I want to help influence the future development of people and organizations. I want to teach others to love and help, to learn and grow beyond their current bounds. I will build personal, business, and human relationships by sharing my values, talent, knowledge and my resources, in frequent little ways.
Dedicated to your Excellence,
Dr. Reginald Canon
