Orrin C. Hudson is a
self-taught winner. Growing up poor in an Alabama housing
project with a family of 13 siblings taught him at an early
age the meaning of sacrifice and community. His personal
growth vision unfolded when his oldest brother Eric
introduced him to chess.
Later, his high school teacher,
James Edge, bought him a chess book that taught the teenager
to focus on making the right moves. It was the first book
Orrin ever owned and he read it from cover to cover numerous
times. Voted Most Likely to Succeed and Outstanding Student
in his senior year, Orrin stepped into the world and began
to exceed those predictions.
When
Orrin made the move to develop his personal greatness, life
took on a new meaning. As an adult, he served as an Alabama
State Trooper for six years, developing the discipline
needed to be a winner. He later owned and operated a car
dealership, succeeding once again as a business and
community leader.
Being the best continued to be a large
part of Orrin’s personal developmental strategy, gleaning
back to back victories in the City Chess Championships in
1999 and 2000. Winning against all odds helped him realize
a higher goal in life.
Orrin
began to teach others how to think strategically, plan
effectively and build self-confidence using chess as his
vehicle. Remembering how Abraham Lincoln’s mother’s advice
to “be someone” had helped Lincoln aspire to the White
House, Orrin used that simple, yet monumental, concept to
his fullest advantage. Focusing his talents on children, he
began teaching others to "Be Someone" through his highly
effective and much lauded presentations.
A
dynamic motivational speaker, Orrin extols the time-tested
strategies of chess as a metaphor for the game of life.
With such motivating titles as “Winning by Choice”, “The
Gratitude Attitude” and “The Triple A Success Formula,” his
keynote topics combine humor and personal winning
experiences with common sense approaches to creating success
and happiness. His enthusiasm is infectious.
The
subject of countless news articles and television
interviews, including such national recognition as USA
Today, CNN Headline News, and CNN American Stories, The Word
Network, Orrin is noted for sharing a winning mindset that
enables his students and audiences to believe in
themselves. He continues to attract community service
awards, having won some of the most prestigious for the
educational arena.
Orrin
continues to hone his empowerment skills and expand his
winning horizons. Understanding that true champions do not
step into the winner’s circle alone, his hand is
outstretched to others who also seek to find the champion
within and strive to “Be Someone” special.
Be Someone, Inc.
