Bio

As founder and CEO of Advanced Lighting, Inc., a manufacturer of LED and fiber optics used in entertainment and architectural lighting, Paul Streitz established himself as an industry visionary and the go-to-source for high-tech, high-touch creative lighting solutions for everything from the Grammy awards, Broadway shows and major concert tours to unprecedented billboard events for Times Square. Advanced Lighting also provided the technical know-how and lighting products to illuminate the original Declaration of Independence and all its supporting documents at the National Archives in Washington D.C. After selling his company in 2007, Paul reinvented himself as an author and motivational speaker. His book, Blue-Collar Buddha: Winning Wisdom Gained on the Journey from Flight Attendant to Cancer Survivor to Entrepreneurial Millionaire, is rapidly gaining him a following in both the business world and the self-help community. In Blue-Collar Buddha’s twenty-nine uplifting, heart-centered stories of personal and professional enlightenment, Paul details his improbable rise from working-class roots to founder of a multimillion-dollar lighting company. With refreshing candor, caring, and insight, Paul shares the hard-earned wisdom he gained from overcoming debilitating childhood insecurities, shocking betrayals at work and at home, and two life-changing bouts with cancer. Ultimately, with integrity, ingenuity, and indomitable will, Paul created a rich, fulfilling life and a business worth millions. Learn more at PaulStreitz.com.

Q&A

Why did you write Blue-Collar Buddha? To deliver a powerful message to as many people as possible: You can overcome anything and live a life without limits. What qualifies you as an authority on this topic? My challenges were childhood abuse, years of Special Ed, getting ripped off by unethical bosses, two battles with cancer, disappointing relationships, and every kind of business problem I could imagine in the company I founded. But I’m here today, happy, healthy, wealthy, and excited about life. How do you help people make better lives for themselves? I encourage and inspire them to reinvent themselves through ferocious self-honesty, a commitment to lifelong learning, an uncompromising work ethic, and assuming full responsibility for every one of your thoughts, words, and actions. What did you learn on your own journey that you’d like to share with others? My story is proof that you can balance outer success with inner peace and be happier than you ever thought possible. I know without question that if you believe in yourself and believe in your dreams, you will be unstoppable. How can I get started working with you?
