March 7: Book Review: “The Tap” by Frank McKinney
I’ve often mentioned the importance of having a relationship with the divine. Frank McKinney’s book The Tap provides some solid advice for how to cultivate this relationship and be open for when the Divine “taps” you on the shoulder and calls you to service.

March 22: Do you need to understand book marketing?

April 16-18: Ideas to Income Interview: Ethan Siegel

I started a series (which is taking longer to do than I’d hoped) in which I talk with people who are making money from what started off as a hobby. The first interview was a blast! I spoke with Ethan Siegel who is an astrophysicist and science fiction fan who is bringing his passions together and turning them into a source of income.

• Part 1
• Part 2
• Part 3

I had fun with this one. I created a song that helps you remember how to use visual aids properly.

I answered some client questions on the Weekday Wisdom because they were fairly universal. I thought this one was particularly good.

December 12: QUIZ: What Is Your Confidence Quotient?
While you don’t want to be so “confident” that you come off as arrogant, you do want to have sufficient confidence to succeed in life and reach the goals that you’ve set for yourself. This quiz will help you assess where you are on the confidence scale.

Notice how I’m missing a few months? Well, revisit my post from July 31!
