I’m yet another person who moved from blogger.com to Wordpress (and I’m already very happy about this move, loving this interface), and I haven’t yet tackled the import-blogger.php script to begin the process. A major impetus to doing this, is not just to gain a more secure feeling against the issue of: Putting in a lot of time posting, and not having control over whether blogger decides to delete the blog, … or even to gain much much more flexibility.
The motive is also from that geek in me that really loves to learn a new technology, api, whatever.
Print out those powerful Ebooks that have been sitting on your virtual bookshelf, in that dusty “ebooks-I-havent-read-yet” folder.
I wanted to mention in this first “post-Migrate To Wordpress” message that Printer Ink could be your best friend in improving the quality of your life. (It’s too bad that we tend to have negative associations with printer ink, due to the abundance of spam email from printer ink peddlers)
If you know that you have a lengthy ebook or two containing valuable techniques, ideas, know-how in a particular field, and you definitely don’t crave the thought of sitting at your desk chair to read a little bit at a time, then print that puppy out.
We love to stay un-aware of our fears sometimes, including myself. When you see that ink level drop on the little graphic simulated “ink-gauge” on your screen, depending on your printer software, all you can think of is having to prapare for another 20 dollar plunkage at the office supply store.
But if you re-evaluate what’s really important, it will then dawn on you that fussing over losing a Andrew Jackson can prevent you from gaining 500 times that amount from an idea in an ebook that is so hard to embrace sometimes on a screen.
Here are books that I am so glad that I have printed out, because I am actually reading them, making notes in margins, and enjoying them as well as getting a whole lot of value because I took the time to turn them into hardcopy and placed into a binder:
- How To Gets Lot Of Money For Anything Fast by Stuart Lichtman
Tthis sat in my ebook/mind folder for the longest time and I didnt’ realize how potent the exercises were to really super-expose subconscious conflicts that prevent action - Cheesy title, yes, but powerful techniques.
- Perry Marshalls Definitive Guide to Adwords book - I probably won’t use advertising until I have my own product to sell on the internet, but I might change that. This ebook contains some solid stuff on marketing, period, even if you were never to use adwords itself.
- Happy Pocketful of Money by David Cameron
A thorough treatment of what abundance really is. A quick way to summarize this is that it “un-Matrixes” you out of your belief that money is the end-all and be-all of abundance. The recognition of the fact that the dollar in itself — or currency as an object — is just a human invention and a type of energy, is enough to shift you into a mindset that flows that physical stuff/energy to you because your main motive in life is now to produce value and express what is unique inside you, instead of collecting what the mass media and realitytvshows think you should. ( Cameron’s book is run-on-sentence-less as a bonus. )
It’s a paradox: Just unleash what’s inside you that you enjoy doing without groping for cash, and abundance returns to you.
