Until You have Walked the Path, You Don't Know Where it Goes

By

Many light workers and healers have found themselves facing life issues that have gone beyond the normal challenges. They have not only been confronting their own fears, disappoints, and wounds, but those that have come out of left field for no apparent reason, leaving them questioning what the hell happened.

I heard a story on a TV show a while back that explains what is…

To my friends,

I have put the finishing touches on my newest eBook, The Art of Writing an eBook, How to Use Your Experiences and Knowledge to Enrich Yourself and Others. I am ready to announce it to the world.

Tarot Energy Reading for the Week of January 20, 2008

This is a mini reading for the week of January 20, 2008. The six of swords jumped out of the deck as a new optimism comes into many of our lives and change appears on the horizon. But it will not be an easy path, nor will it be smooth as the old fights to keep the status quo. The nine of cups is the card that represents this week. The nine of cups is also called the wish card. Those who have the courage and faith to ask for what…

Karmic Weave: Releasing Unwanted Ties

By

Theresa Chaze

All relationships are connections between individuals. Some are karmic, while others are current issues. However, these bonds are not always positive, nor are they solely between individuals but groups as well. Bigotry has been passed on from generation to generation for no other reason than it has always been that way. This engrained behavior creates unwanted ties and karmic imbalance. It is only by stepping back to…

Far too many times I have picked up a book on a specialist subject to find it is heavy and indigestible!

Full of long, technical words, and pompous opinion, I am turned off before I have finished chapter one.....

John Shindeldecker avoids this pitfall in "The World of Alevis". He creates a readable but informative introduction to this group of Islamic believers in the Middle East. He says, "My hope is that the reader will have a tasty, balanced meal, and the appetite to come…

Despite all the work we put into marketing our books, little things count the most. Here are 5 ways I've seen many authors sabotage their best efforts for online sales.

[1] They don't take advantage of Amazon's programs. Amazon wants to make money off of you so they give you a lot of ideas to improve your sales. Tags, Listmania, "So You" Guides, Author Connect Blogs, and much more all were developed to help you sell more books. And don't forget to check back at least every few months…

Reprinted from his blog: Last Wednesday night, I hosted a teleseminar with eight publishing professionals who are top editors and agents in different aspects of publishing. I was intentional about the mixture of people,…

I thought I would share with you a little experiment I am doing and let you know the results. I've been fortunate enough to attend the workshop of Derek Gehl of Internet Marketing Center, in fact, their large 2-binder training course called The Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet was one of my main sources of internet marketing training in the late 1990s…
