Marc Accetta, the British Phone Booth and the “Who Moved my Cheese” Book

One of Marc Accetta’s daughters urged him to take a picture inside the famous red British phone booth during his first trip to London. He found it odd that he had difficulty finding one, finally spotting only several of these located near the Parliament. Now that almost everyone in the world uses mobile phones, who needs pay phones? Because of change, the pay phone that used to be a staple in cities is now replaced by pocket-sized mobile phones. Who knows that in the future, these little phones that we carry today will become obsolete and be replaced by a more high-tech gadget.

This was pondered upon by Marc Accetta during his search for the phone booth. He came to think about change and how many people try to resist it. As a well-known speaker and life coach, Marc supports the fact that change is the only thing constant in this world and believes that not having the willingness to adapt to change is a fundamental problem. To be able to get ahead of everybody else and succeed, one has to understand that change is a natural part of life.

From Marc Accetta

For those having difficulty accepting change, Marc encourages reading the book “Who Moved my Cheese? An Amazing way to Deal with Change in your Work and in your Life” written by Spencer Johnson. It is a great read not only for adults but also for children since the book is written in the style of a parable, following the journey of two mice and two “little people” in search of cheese.

Marc Accetta Pays It Forward with His Unstoppable Foundation

From Marc Accetta


Living up to the motto “We Create Champions,” Marc Accetta, founder of Marc Accetta Seminars and Director of Training for WorldVentures, gives back and pays it forward to the American youth through the Unstoppable Foundation.

Having lived a blessed and successful life, Marc was encouraged by his wife Kelly to participate and contribute to the cause of the Big Brother Big Sister (BBBS) foundation, the oldest and largest mentoring organization in the country. The foundation aims to provide children with positive relationships that would instill positive traits in them and develop their confidence. The organization's cause has shown positive effects in helping keep the youth in school and away from substance addiction.

From Marc Accetta


Through the foundation, Marc Accetta and his wife took in to their care a boy named William who lost his father to a heart attack at a very young age. The couple has been recognized for their contributions to BBBS that they are now members of the local BBBS Board of Directors at Colin County, TX.

From Marc Accetta


Inspired by their experience with BBBS, the couple established their own organization called the “Unstoppable Foundation.” The foundation desires to equip the youth with fundamental lessons, including money management, character building, and self-confidence to help them realize their dreams.

Marc explains, “We're hoping our schools are teaching these things, but really they're focusing on the book education of our children. And in some of the homes in America, these things are not being taught; parents are not realizing it's their responsibility.”
