Huge news this week, but first a personal note and “case study”…
Last week I mentioned that my wife’s swollen feet might prevent us
from going to the condo.
Well… I’ve been talking about brick walls, and will some more in
this email, so after I wrote and sent that email to you, I started
thinking about this latest brick wall in our personal life.
What really was the issue was the fact that not only was she in
pain, but more so that she couldn’t get her shoes on.
So we talked, and I asked her if I were to go to the shoe store and
find comfortable shoes in a larger size, would she want to go. She
said yes, I found them, and off we went.
By the way, I don’t know what the clerk was thinking when I told him
I wanted to buy women’s shoes in a fairly large size. 
We had a nice weekend, she got to relax probably much more than at
our house because there aren’t any stairs at the condo, and it was
nice.
Brick walls aren’t always tough to go over, under, around, or through
if you really think about them right.
So while down there, I was thinking while relaxing, that at one point
when Rachel and I were partners, she rewrote the copy for the
Earn1KaDay sales page and the main headline talked about “take you
by the hands” support, and you know, with around 800 people here, I
just can’t do that with everyone, because it implies a sort of one
on one coaching program for every individual that wants it.
And I really didn’t like promising that, so with the latest rewrite
of the sales copy, it doesn’t say that anymore.
But I was thinking… why not provide a section of the forum where
we can really give that to people? How tough would that be? What’s
the brick wall preventing it?
I decided to open up a new section called Personal Coaching, and
anyone who posts a thread can get not only my advice, but that of
all the other smart and caring people in our family.
It won’t replace one on one face to face coaching because it will
be more public, but I really think it might be better for some
people because any individual coach only comes with a limited
perspective, whereas all the expertise we have inside Earn1KaDay
adds a whole new dimension, exponentially.
This won’t replace the Personal Challenges section, just like the
Breakthrough Challenges section didn’t, and this won’t replace
Breakthrough Challenges either. Those are for setting goals and
moving forward, Personal Coaching threads will be when someone
knows what they want to do, but they’ve hit a brick wall of their
own and need help getting past it.
It will also bring into focus what training people need, and maybe
we already have it inside the download area, and I can find it for
you, or maybe it will show what needs to be found or created, and
I can in many cases make that happen, especially if it’s a common
need.
I hope this becomes a popular area of the forum. Bob Hale noticed
it this past week, and jumped in, and you can see the response he
got. I think it was fabulous, from several members, and it seems
like the suggestions have gotten him focused on what he really needs
and wants to do, whereas in his first post, he wasn’t.
Let us help you too, or maybe you can help others.
If you’re struggling, ask for help there.
If you’re a coach and can help, feel free to show off. In fact,
let’s make it a competition of sorts to see who gives the best
advice and helps the most people.
Actually, I have my own brick wall at the moment, but I didn’t want
to be one of the first to ask for help. I want it to be those who
need it more than I do.
Here’s the new section, let’s fill it up:

Special announcements:
My latest book launches tomorrow. It’s a topic that I’m pretty
passionate about, and while it’s been done before to a small
degree, not quite like what’s been done in this one. If you can
help promote it, I’d be very grateful:

Forum threads of note:
Bob started off the new Personal Coaching forum section, and I
think the results have been pretty impressive, at least in getting
him focused on what he really wants to do:

Remember, there’s a special section in the forum called “Special
Offers (By Authors), where members offer their products at a
special price to members.
I’d rather not highlight each one individually, so that this email
doesn’t start looking like a classified ad section, but sometimes
you can get some nice bargains and support your forum friends, so
please remember to check it out next time you drop by the forum:

Reminder: If you’re new to Earn1KaDay, or didn’t remember this, all
the weekly emails, from the beginning of time, are archived on the
blog here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/wp/
If you ever miss an email, or want to check the archives, you can
always go there and do a search.
Another reminder: I get asked (a lot) about the affiliate program
to Earn1KaDay. A thread was set up long ago with details, here:

That’s just a short review of some of the highlights, there is much
more going on all the time at the forum. Don’t be a stranger
there, that’s where the primary value of your membership is, after
all. We’re not there to chat so much (though there is a lounge
there if you want to unwind), we’re there to learn from each other,
and share with each other, and as you can see from the above sample
threads, there’s a lot of that happening.

Until next week, I wish you the very best in everything.
