A singer and an actor. How interesting.

What were you in?

This is why you always sell value and never time.

You are, indeed, a blest man Scott. You have more sight than I do.

I was given glasses when I was four, and that was back before the ophthalmologists could shine a light in your eye and determine the prescription from it.

The glass ones left a dent in my nose. During the summer, I remember my friends holding my glasses in the sunlight, and that…[Read more]

I did go blind in 2011 after my last mission trip to Africa. The dehydration pulled the retina and clouded the vitreous fluid in my eyes. The first surgery was a disaster and I was soon black as night blind in one eye as almost the entire retina came loose and still couldn’t see much out of the other eye. Two more surgeries that year saved the eye…[Read more]

Have you lost your sight, Scott?

OK.

How’s it going now, Bob?

Hi Les,

I’m reviewing the posts in PreneurPal.

Came across your request for a link to Alpha Waves music.

Sorry I didn’t see it until now.

Here’s the link to several choices: Alpha Waves

I solved this problem by buying another cable and a charger to go in the car.

Hi Tina,

There’s now a Post Anything part of the forum.

When you get a chance, can you reread this part of the thread, and then write a post that describes your experience?

Hope you are better now Bruce.

I guess I cope by fighting it.

Illness can be pretty brutal and at best limits you and at worst shuts you down. Last year I had three eye surgeries and with activity restrictions I lost a lot of productivity, not to mention physical fitness as I gained a few pounds. This year I had a week with a bad stomach bug,…[Read more]

I hope that you’re continuing to improve, Norma.

No need to name names. Just think about it, but is there someone in this forum that you could work with to help you with some of your more immediate challenges?

If so, then PM them.

If not, then why not ask a question that describes the kind of help that you need?

The last several days have had to flow.

I moved about a month ago, but only got Internet yesterday.

So there was getting used to that.

It was really quiet. No music, except in the office.

I’ve been home most of this week. There’s too much snow and ice on the ground to travel. I’m expecting to be here for the rest of the week, too.

But for the…[Read more]

Sean said this the other day.

You’re first product will be your worst one.

And your first book, though it may be good, won’t be as good as the second.

The third will be better than the first or the second.

The fourth will be better than the first three.

If you’ve written one book and, because it didn’t sell well, have given up, then you need…[Read more]

One of the problems with fear is that it feeds a self-fulfilling prophecy.

You’ve probably heard that you get more of what you focus on. The reason is because the more you look at anything, the more of it you’re able to see, and the more of other things that look like it you can see.

We’re all afraid to a certain extent; but you have to accept…[Read more]

“The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy” (Cal Newport, Deep Work, p. 14, italics author’s).

I decided that the topic may have been to vague for most people, and so I’ve extended it to stimulate your imagination.

Here’s your schedule for the the week: Monday (2 hours); Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, you get 90 minutes.

How will you spend your time?
