Day 56: Behind The Scenes

Wow, I can't believe it's been over a month since I released the last video.  Time flies when you're having fun... or when you're sufficiently busy!

I've been hard at work outlining the major parts of the book, deciding what techniques to include, how to sequence the concepts, etc.  I did a simple cover sketch on a 4x6 card, and carried it around with me for a while. Then, just this weekend, I did a full cover design -- and reworked the website graphics to match.

I went on the road to spend a weekend with a client of mine, filming a case study -- some of that will probably turn up in various videos going forward, although I'm still reviewing the footage.

I've also created a new "prequel" e-book, called "Why Can't I Change? The Real Reason Why Trying Harder Doesn't Make You Any More Successful"; you can download it for free by registering here.

Last, but far from least, I've been working out deals with authors and publishers of various self-improvement products to provide them with videos, articles, and other material so they can let their readers and customers know about the book, in exchange for commissions and/or cross-promotion.  It's pretty exciting, because other authors and speakers usually ask the best questions and it has certainly given me a lot of new ideas for videos, and even some things to add to the book.

Meanwhile, I'm hard at work on the next video, "interior design" of the book, and of course, writing.  I've also been applying one of the new techniques I came up with just for the book, and it has really boosted not only my productivity, but my energy as well.  Can't wait to share it later!
