Tickets to see Bush speak at 'Get Motivated!' seminar on sale for 3 pounds !

London, Oct 30 (ANI): Tickets to see George W Bush speak at the 'Get Motivated!' seminar in San Antonio, Texas, are on sale for 3 pounds.

Organisers of the motivational business seminar say that a group ticket is also available for guests which will allow them to "send your entire office" to see the former leader of the free world for 11.50 pounds, reports the Telegraph.

The 43rd US president features as the 'special guest speaker' at the seminar, a popular US programme of 'motivational mega-shows' run by Peter and Tamara Lowe.

Bush, who lives in Dallas, Texas, made his debut at one of their events earlier this week in front of 11,000 people at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Texas.

He was given a rapturous reception as he told the audience: "I'm glad to be home. I don't know if you've heard but I've retired - and there's no better place to retire than here in the promised land.

"Every single day, I was honoured to be your president by bringing honour and dignity to the office," he added.

Bush, who left office with an approval rating of 22 per cent, said he believed in the decisions he made as commander-in-chief and suggested listeners to stick to their principles and live every day to the fullest.

"It's so simple in life to chase popularity, but popularity is fleeting. It's not real," he said.

Bush's first attempt at motivational speaking appeared to be a success. (ANI)
