Ross, Skip & Susan Amway

 "He discovered the business nicely dovetailed to aid others."

"Skip Ross has a bachelor's degree in social science and a bachelor's degree in theology from the Fuller Seminary. 

He discovered that developing such firm perfectly matched his dedication to helping people. Susan's background as a primary teacher fit wonderfully with his, and she had grown up in an active business family. 

Skip and Susan especially wanted to reach teenagers, and as their business became successful they bought a ranch near Grand Rapids, which they named Circle "A." 

"The ranch's main aim," says Skip, "is to encourage young people to attain higher levels of performance, contribution and fulfilment, to say yes to their potential, and to become all God created them. 

This business expresses what we've committed our lives to. And it's on a world stage now."

Skip created four tapes, You Can Be a Winner. These would have been created latest in the early 1980s, if not earlier. 

It was DL=(GGE+PS)*PSI That is Dynamic Living equal to God Given Equipment plus Principle of Success and was multiplied by Proper Self Image. 

This audio course discussed God Given Equipment and Success Principles and spent considerable time creating a proper self-image. Many IBO's consider these tapes classic audio.

He also wrote a book called Say Yes to Carole Carlson's Potential. This was first published weekly in 1983, with further issues to this day. It covered the same material as series cassette.

Richards, Bob & Joan Amway

Bob Richards

Robert Eugene Richards (born February 20, 1926), a retired American athlete, pastor, and politician. 

He created three U.S. Olympic Teams in two events: the 1948, 1952 and 1956 Summer Olympics as a pole vaulter and 1956 decathlete. 

He won gold medals in pole vault in 1952 and 1956, becoming the only two-time male champion in Olympic history.

While still active, Richards became an ordained minister. He ran the Populist Party ticket for U.S. President in 1984. 

Athletic career

Richards was the second man to pole 15 feet (4.57 m). While a student at Illinois University, Richards tied for the national pole vault title and followed with 20 national Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) titles, including 17 in pole vault and three in decathlon. 

The first guy to clear 15 feet was Dutch Warmerdam, who achieved the 1942 world record of 4.77 m (15 ft 7+3⁄4 in) years before Richards came to his top. While his time's dominant vaulter, Richards never established a world record.

Richards eventually became active in promoting physical health and in later years continued to vault. 

He was the first athlete to appear on the front of Wheaties cereal boxes in 1958 (although not the first shown on all aspects of the packaging), and was also the first Wheaties representative to establish up the Wheaties Sports Federation, which supported Olympic sports participation. 

Richards had four sons, also pole vaulters: Brandon, 18'2" national high school record for fourteen years from 1985;Tom won the CIF State Meeting in 1988; Bob, Junior was second in the same meeting in 1968 and later ranked #7 in the US in 1973. 

He's the only male two-time Olympic gold medal winner in the pole vault (1952 and 1956), hence he's the only man defending his Olympic championship. He also won bronze in the pole vault in 1948. Russian Yelena Isinbayeva is the only other pole vaulter besides Richards who won three Olympic gold in 2012. Richards placed 13th in the 1956 Olympics decathlon.

He was elected to the 1983 U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame, and 1975 U.S. National Track & Field Hall of Fame.

As he ageed, Richards continued to participate in various events in Track and Field, especially throwing events. 

He was one of the earliest regular participants in what has now become Masters athletics. Richards appeared on the panel game show, What's My Line? #346 January 20, 1957.

Ministry

He was ordained to the Brethren's Church in 1946 (which led to his being nicknamed the "Vaulting Vicar" or the "Pole Vaulting Parson"). 

As future church minister Billie Jean King's tennis player, Richards influenced King. One day, when King was 13 or 14, Richards asked, 

"What will you do with your life?" She said, "Reverend, I'm the world's top tennis player." In 1957, actor Hal Stalmaster played Richards as a teenager in an episode of America's ABC anthology series Cavalcade.
