May 18, 2009This Week: Good times, advice, mind program book launch

Filed under: This Week in the World by merylrunion |

I had a fabulous week. I found out nurses love the show House, nurses love my Power Phrases and I love nurses.

I found out my Dad, who can’t see or hear much, is still very alive and vibrant. And fun to be around. My Dad is from Iceland and I wanted him to talk about his childhood, so I fed him fish. It worked. I asked him about his dreams. Fascinating. Ask your aging parents what they dream about and enjoy the ride.

I found out what it’s like to work with an experienced web training development specialist. She organized my thinking and brought new, great ideas to the table. Thanks, Dixie.

There is a lively discussion about unsolicited advice on the blog.

“If you feel manipulated, assume you are and leave. Then do you analysis.” Book launch.

The above is a quote from Robert Cialdini in Eldon Taylor’s new book Mind Programming. Persuasion, propaganda and developing consciousness fascinate me, which is why I agreed to join a launch campaign for Taylor’s new book. You’ll find what I have to say about Mind Programming here, and the promotion is here.

I’m also reading The Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. I will have much more to say about it in weeks to come.
