Travels From: New Jersey , NY
Harold S. Reed, Jr. was born and raised in East Orange, New Jersey.
He briefly attended Rutgers University, before leaving school
to enlist in the United States Air Force. Harold proudly served
as a Medical Services Specialist during the Persian Gulf War.
In 2000, Harold was hired by the East Orange Police Department,
"protecting and serving" the very city in which he was
born and raised. In 2001, he moved to Woodbridge, New Jersey shortly
before marrying his wife, Taria. In November of 2002, he left
the East Orange Police Department and joined the Woodbridge Township
Police Department -again "protecting and serving" the
very community where he lives.
In 2006, after encouraging Taria to start her own successful photography business, he decided to share his motivation with the world by becoming a public speaker & author. He created his company –HRJR Enterprises, and in 2007 he self-published and released his first book, “Find A Way to Make A Way –You’re Either Part of the Problem or You're Part of the Solution!”Based upon both the content of the book and his independent sales potential, in 2008, he was signed to Tate Publishing & Enterpriseswith the 2ndedition of his book released in early 2009. His book is currently available at major retailers such as Barnes & Noble.com, Borders.com, Amazon.com, as well as a plethora of other online retailers. People wanting personally autographed copies can order them directly from his website: www.HRJREnterprises.com.
Harold believes that life is about service and in that in order to receive God’s blessings we must first become blessings ourselves. In 2009, Harold expanded his brand by becoming a Certified Professional Life Coach.In 2011 he retired from law enforcement, focusing more of his life towards being of service to his fellow man without many of the restrictions bound upon him by the uniform.
Using his brand of “Motiv-ACTION” (Motive + ACTION
= Results!), Harold is quick to warn people that he is not your
typical motivational speaker. His messages are powerful and sometimes
painfully honest. He believes that the solutions to many of life's
problems can be found within the individual. However, if one will
not face his flaws, he will not fight his flaws; and if he will
not fight his flaws, he will never be free of them.
