Earlier this year I had an idea: why not ask personal development bloggers for advice on personal development blogging, compile them into an ebook and give it out for free?

I don’t claim to have all the answers on how to create a successful blog – in fact, I’d be wary of anyone who’d say he does. I don’t claim to have a wildly successful blog either, so investigate what I say. But there have been lessons along the way, running Life Coaches Blog for [...]

I spent yesterday thinking of the answers to Tim Ferris‘ questions from his book The 4-Hour Workweek: Which 20% of my efforts are producing 80% of my results that I need to focus more on?

Doing the exercises in chapter 7; ‘7 Tools for Making a Great First Impression’ on creating a powerful company name and dynamic tag [...]

7. September 2007
Sometimes the best advice comes in the most unexpected way. Talking last night to my good friend Junming, who runs Haroko Studio, about Life Coaches Blog and the future directions it needs to take; he said the simplest and most amazing thing: ‘Just keep it real.’ So what’s real?

If I could only own 3 personal development books in my life, without a doubt The Way Of The Superior Man: A Spiritual Guide to Mastering the Challenges of Woman, Work, and Sexual Desire by David Deida would be one of them (read my review here).

‘Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from her?’ ‘That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,’ said the Cat. ‘I don’t much care where…’ said Alice. ‘Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,’ said the Cat. ~ Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland.
