Landmark is one of the known providers of seminars, programs that aim to have a highly developed individual. For the past many years now, Landmark Forum has already produced so many successful people in the different fields. Aside from the knowledge they have enhanced and acquired in the forum, these people have the sense of direction in life. Indeed, Landmark forum is both challenging and inspiring. Speaking of inspiring stories, I have found a website which discusses all about the success of many graduates of Landmark Education. This website aims to share the personal projects of the graduates, projects which can be very inspiring for many. One thing about this website, it is managed by the graduates themselves. It is an effort they made to help other people, inspire them and be able to know how much Landmark has contributed into their lives. It is here in this website that you will have to read some of the personal projects of the graduates; some took the road of business, some health and fitness, some focused on economy and many more. The stories here in this website will surely be very helpful for many people by giving them hope. The benefits and the by-products of Landmark Forum are all present here in this website. All the experiences are true to life, videos even are present. I started Landmark only recently and my only regret is why I started only now. Well there is a perfect timing for all and I knew for sure that in the near future, I will surely be imparting my experience here in this website.

I am already in my middle age and very concerned now about my health and the way I live my life. So I stick now to having my daily walks which sometimes take me to the lagoon where early in the evening, many people can be seen about. Some are sitting down on the benches, maybe just taking a breather from the day in the office before going home and some are like me walking or running around this manmade lagoon. But this particular evening, I was on my second lap around the lagoon before heading back home, when I noticed a man getting into the shallow water and picking up an immobile form of a child. It seems that the little boy, slipped on the edge of the pool without his parents seeing what happened. It took only just a short while that the parents’ eyes were not on him but those short moments made a difference because the child slipped into the water unnoticed in the darkening shadows and because they were not expecting that he fell. The water was only thigh-deep but for a child of 3 years, that could be ten feet deep, that is why when the father saw him and picked him up from the water, he was no longer moving and when he was laid down on the ground. Someone nearby called 911 and me there directly on the spot, moved without thinking, took over and did CPR. It was a good thing that I took CPR First Aid and I have just received my BLS Recertification.

How glad I am that I took the time to learn something as useful as CPR. It is true we may never know whose life we can save by just knowing what to do in an emergency. And how glad I am that there is the American Academy of CPR and First Aid, Inc. for giving me the training on CPR online. At least with this knowledge, I can be of help. I might be somewhat old, but I can still be useful. And I owe that to the American Academy of CPR and First Aid, Inc. And as I have started, I will continue encouraging friends and family to take the course too.
