Collectively, those stories would make a great book, Julia.

Think about the themes they each illustrate, and then make an outline.

If you want some help, then let me know. 🙂

I heard a great podcast today. I’m going to post the link in the Post Anything part of the site, but I’ve also included it here so that you have it.

Jonathan Cronstedt talks about what great course material looks like, and how it helps customers.

Some things, like reference books, car battery chargers – anything that is there in case of a crisis or emergency – you probably ought to hold onto.

Other things that you haven’t used for some time need to be evaluated.

You need to be practical about it; not just ruthless. If you think that you’re likely to use it in the coming year, then it…[Read more]

Not sure what your question is, Julia.

If you want to create a clickable signature for this forum, then go to Members, find your name, and then edit your profile.

I completely agree, Scott.

There is definitely more than one way to look at this and getting rid of everything is not the answer.

I would never remove something from the house that has value to someone else.
My husband has a t-shirt from the 70’s, faded and full of holes, but he’ll never get rid of it.

I don’t live in a sparse empty house.
I…[Read more]

Hey Robert,

Great question and I agree with Bruce about the material on this site.
Going through The Blueprint section of this site will clarify a lot of things for you.

And once you have done it for yourself you can help others do something similar.

Clarity is THE KEY to moving forward. If you don’t know EXACTLY where you’re going … any road…[Read more]

Thanks Sean, I think we all need to be reminded sometimes that nothing in life is handed to us.

It’s all to easy to forget how long and hard we worked to master something – after the fact.

You don’t have any idea how many times you fell to the floor before you learned to walk.
Or how about your day job, the school and training it took to get in…[Read more]

Another way to help you with this is to use a page builder.

There will be a widget for images, and you’ll be able to define the size of the box that the pictures go in so that they’ll be uniform.

Not all page builders are created equal, however. We use SiteOrigin at work. I don’t like it. The tutorials are pretty much a waste of time, too. The…[Read more]

Hi Robert,

There are two things that are missing from your offer.

The first one is why you’re doing it. The best way to understand this in the short term is to look up Simon Sinek on YouTube.

If you can grasp what he says, then after some thought you’ll be able to figure this out. But it won’t be obvious.

I’m writing an ebook about this topic…[Read more]

Hi Les,

I’ve given a lot of public presentations.

The most important thing is preparation.

When you think you have it all together, then stand at a table with your notes in front of you, and present to the wall or the empty room out loud, just as if you’re doing it, all the way through.

Make whatever changes you need to to your notes.

An hour…[Read more]

Yes Sean,

Leave it up I have seen far worse. It let’s people, within the group, see the reality of how much sweat and tears goes into keeping this group alive. I don’t think it will tear up any trees in most member’s heads though. Not that they are bad people it’s just human bloody nature. We are lazy mammals, and I include myself in that.

But…[Read more]

It doesn’t sound like anger to me, Sean.

Leave it up. 🙂

About three years ago, I bought a van in Bowling Green KY. I spent the night with my oldest son and his wife there. We went out to eat with his inlaws (one of which has since died), picked up the van, spent the night, went to revival meeting the next day at my home town Church nearby.

At that time I was still drinking Pepsi.

He had bought a six…[Read more]

I first read this on my phone and didn’t see the 90 days part and assumed it was a month, which added to the What??? factor.

Still, 90 days seems like a tall order, but I think it is great to ask these “what if” questions, they often lead to breakthroughs.

If the average independent marketer could do this and the subscribers be in alignment with…[Read more]

Sean,

As raised in another recent thread (by Julia Rotgers), a lot of hard dedicated and targetted work over a period of months would be required. Effort require to get a 1000 subscribers may well have to be similar to the levels of action, you yourself had to take when you submitted all of those many, many ezine articles in the past.

I don’t,…[Read more]

Hey Bruce,

That should give you a break from PreneurPal then…lol..although the input to this group might therefore drop somewhat!

Good luck with the move my friend. It can be a stressful time.

Sean,

I will be making initial preparations for my first official speech, that I will be giving to a Speaking club I have joined. It is only going to be 5 minutes long, but that is a lot longer than it seems when one is stood up in front of a bunch of people who, while very supportive, are also analyzing in order to provide feedback on my effort.…[Read more]

How do you keep the sand and salt out of your computer? 😉
