Back from PD workshop

Last week I attended Steve Pavlina's Conscious Growth Workshop in Las Vegas. I found it to be a very valuable experience. Steve has written a book called Personal Development for Smart People ( which is also the name of his blog). He uses the book as a basis for the worshop. The focus is on the principles of Truth, Love, and Power, and how these can be developed in our individual lives. I recommend both the book and the workshop!

Off to Las Vegas!

Yes, I'll be attending Steve Pavlina's Conscious Growth Workshop from 5/14 - 5/16. I'm sure I'll pick up lots of good stuff there. Many people say it's life-changing.
Wow, that would be something!l

Got the Book!

Yay!...but...it does need a couple of tweaks. I DID edit it a gazillion times, but there was still a couple of errors in the text. Plus, the top of my head was cut off in one photo. Can't have that! So it's back to getting it uploaded again and then waiting for the order. But this time I'll order 10 copies because I'll put it on ebay and on the website and announce it on facebook. The whole 9 yards.

Waiting for order to arrive

Still waiting for the directional booklet to arrive so I can decide if this is what I really want. I'm impatient! I'm afraid the time limit for Blurb keeping my file on hand will be up then I'll have to deal with uploading it again...

Success with Booklet

Last post reported Amazing stuff.
Since then I have worked through uploading my material to the Blurb.com website. They have very good support people. We actually had to use a thrid part software for moving the files, but eventually we got through it. I ordered one copy just to be sure I like the look of it before I go ahead and order a whole bunch. I am making progress. Soon the first complete kit will be ready for someone to use. This will be a very BIG day for me. I'm excited about it, and I'm anticipating that I'll really like the booklet when I get it, and then Next Logical Steps will appear for me to take....

Amazing Opportunity!

Amazing opportunity...this is what we used to call, in my prior days with a born-again community...a real bummer!
I just spent about 6 weeks creating my Creative Journal Writing Kit directions booklet in software that doesn't seem to work. At least not yet. I have an ABP out to their support people now.
It's supposed to work like this: You edit your text, you get great pictures, you proof read, edit, proof read, edit, get more, better pictures, juggle the text and pics again, proof read, edit some more, etc, until you can see it in your sleep...then you "upload" it to their site where they will publish it for you.
Well, the UPLOAD part isn't working!!!!!
I tried all their tips & techniques and it still won't work. I outlined all that in my email to their tech support. And I offered to put it all on portable media and snail mail it to them.
That was last night. I'm waiting for a reply. Maybe they have a magic solution up their sleeve that they only tell the Very Frustrated about...
Anyhow, this is an AMAZING OPPORTUNITY to see how the Universe will work this one out to my advantage, because it will happen. I know...All will be well again I know!

Kit creation update

I finally got my little booklet of directions all ready to go and I find I have a TEMPORARY problem uploading it to the publisher. I'm saying temporary because since it's all set now - I've spent countless hour getting it ready, the Universe will pave the way for the upload when I'm in a fresher, non-frustrated frame of mind. I'm sure if I just relax into it, the forces of the Universe will work computer magic and poof! it will just work. Or else, the reason it's not working will be obvious and I'll be able to fix it quickly and easily...we shall see.
