Skip Wilson (PONY)’s Summary

I have never been one for Corporate America, I went to Yale it was too simple, I worked at IBM and Northrop Gruman both were to congested with bureaucracy. I never fit the “mold” as they like to call it. Iam a free spirit. I am like a wild pony roaming free on the plains I am.

I was almost a Manager 4 times in Corporate America and I understand that I need to manage the people, but I would rather turn those people into leaders themselves and be their friend. So that's what I do, I don't give people a fish, I teach them to garden (I'm a member of PETA so I don't agree with eating animals and fishing is a bad industry). If you didn't know that was a play on Confusious.

In 92 I was hostage of LOVE! Yes love, I met the love of my life (now deceased so you ladies have a chance). She introduced me to a new line of spiritualism that I never before thought possible. We travel from Ashram to Ashram across the U.S. studying there I was told that “God is everywhere, God is in you”. That clicked for me and that means I’m a person incarnation of God, I am my own God.

I don’t necessarily believe that I am God himself or that he even exists. But we have the power to choose who we associate with, how we react with everything, and we are the only ones in control of our path and destiny. I start the Be Your Own God motivational inc. Here I teach people to be the master of the universe, to improve their perception, clarity and the visualization process.


Skip Wilson (PONY)’s Experience

  • Non-Executive Recruiter/Proprietor

    Pony Boy Non-Executive Recruitment

    (Human Resources industry)

    December 2008Present (1 year )

    The people that no one else wants to staff, that's me. I'm looking for businesses that have high turnover and need someone that can give them a cattle-call like they've never seen before.

    I'm not talking 25 people a week but hundreds. So if you have a call center and you micromanage your people to the point that it is unbearable, let me give you more people to micromanage.

  • Motivational Speaker/Proprietor

    Be Your Own God Motivational inc.

    (Management Consulting industry)

    November 2004Present (5 years 1 month)

    Through hard work, dedication, and clarity of thought we can truely take control of our universe and exact omnipotent power over it. You can Be Your Own God.

    My job ended when I could not get anyone to sign up for my seminar, “Be Your Own God.” The philosophy of personal empowerment through medication, self-medication, mediation and alcohol.

  • Life Recruiter

    For My Life

    (Human Resources industry)

    October 1968Present (41 years 2 months)

    I recruit all the people I let into my life. I am my own gatekeeper. This is part of my Be Your Own God philosophy, I encourage you to have a screening process for people that you have in your life also.

  • Amateur Blowfish Chef

    Undisclosed Sushi Stand

    (Food & Beverages industry)

    June 2008December 2008 (7 months)

    I tried to become an amateur blowfish chef and it did not go well. The poison mixed with the medication I was testing caused a few side effects. I have stopped my pursuit of enlightment through medication, as well as my blowfish career. I want to become a person who hires other persons again.

    Do NOT and I repeat do NOT learn how to cook blowfish online. Even if they say they are a Master Trained Chef from Japan and you get a certificate, it's a SCAM run away.

  • Amateur Scientist

    Cannot Disclose for Legal Reasons

    (Hospital & Health Care industry)

    March 2008May 2008 (3 months)

    I have been taking experimental medication to test the side effects. I was trying to create a better version of the Human Growth Hormon, I was really good with biology and chemistry in college and thought it would be simple, it's not, don't do it.

    This is my own testing and not, I repeat not, sanctioned by the FDA, The State of Nevada or The United States Government. I am required by court order to say that.

    I train monkeys to play the harpsichord. I would like to say that despite the news reports I was NOT responsible for the accident that took place. I warned them not to say the word "chattle" but some people do not listen. I listen...but now all I hear is the screams.

  • Clerk

    7-11

    (Tobacco industry)

    May 2005July 2006 (1 year 3 months)

    I from time to time have to escape from my success, a large amount of financial success end up that you are a victim of your wealth. There is always a nicer car, bigger house, etc. So I gave away my fortunes and started working as a clerk at 7-11.

    I was helping an older lady put cheese on her Nachos when I was assaulted but two young ruffians who robbed the place.

    I was let go because I let the store get robbed by assisting a woman put cheese on her nachos. The moral of this is to never help elderly women regardless how pathetic they look.
