Blogging Basics & Beyond - Live Seminar This Saturday
Well if this isn’t one of those D’oh! moments I don’t know what is!
This Saturday, in Santa Rosa (1-hour north of San Francisco) I’m teaching a one-day seminar, Blogging Basics & Beyond.
One of the topics I’ll be covering is how to effectively use your blog to expand exposure for your products and services. And here it is, two days before the seminar and I never posted the event here at Evolving Times. I hate when that happens.
Can you say, “Oops?”
Anyway, if you’re a blossoming Bay Area blogger and want to learn the basics of blogging and beyond, go check out the info and registration page.
I’ve learned a lot in my nearly two years of blogging, and I promise to share many powerful tips and tools as well as alert you to some of the bigger blogging mistakes to avoid.
I Want You To Make A Lot Of Mistakes For 7 Weeks
[Author’s Advisory: Shameless self-promotion ahead!]
“What’s that you say, Ed?”
“I want you to make a lot of mistakes for the next 7-weeks.”
Now why in the world would I want to encourage you to make mistakes? Because, in my opinion, mistakes provide us with one of the most effective paths to success and improvement…
When they are handled in the right way.
Now if your idea of handling mistakes is to shrug your shoulders and say “Oh well, that’s the way it is,” I can’t help you.
But if you view mistakes as opportunities to learn and grow and want to go out and make a few mistakes and then get some immediate coaching, feedback, and suggestions about how to do it better next time, I can help you.
I’m creating a new program, the 7-week Life Turnaround program, that begins on Monday, September 10th. This program will not only teach you how to put the Law of Attraction into action in your life, it will provide you with a supportive, accelerated learning environment where you will learn in action and make significant, positive change in one specific area of your life.
Does your financial house need some cleaning up? If so, you can focus on that.
Could your relationship with your life partner be a bit smoother? You can work on that.
Is it time for a new job or career? Spend the next 7-weeks focused on that.
Is there a creative project you’ve been putting on the back burner for too long? Move it up to the front for the next 7-weeks.
This program grew out of my observation that far too many people discover the Law of Attraction, get all excited about its potential, but then get discouraged because they don’t know how to put it into action in their life.
This course will take you through a step-by-step 7-week process for successfully applying the Law of Attraction in your life.
When I release the final version of this program, it’s most likely going to be a self-study course with an e-book, recordings and worksheets.
But for this beta test, I’m going to work with 7 participants. This will give me the ability to refine the content, make changes on the fly based on feedback, and create a truly valuable final product based on the outcomes from this first group.
So because it’s the first run and I’ll be using you as Guinea Pigs, the cost of this program is less than what I would charge for the private coaching. Keep in mind that I don’t even offer private coaching anymore. But when I did, I was charging $250/hour.
Now you might ask why I would charge someone to go through a trial version.
Well, I learned long ago that when people get something for nothing, that’s usually the value they associate with it. And it’s much easier for someone to sign up for a free program and never show up.
I want 7 participants who are truly committed to making significant changes in their lives.
But, what I have done, is to set the cost for this program at less than the cost of the private coaching lessons. That way, if the rest of the program sucks (it won’t) you’ll still be getting a great deal.
So, if you want to turn your life around in 7-weeks, go check out the 7-week Life Turnaround page and sign up now. There are just two spaces left!
How To Win A Prize
Apparently I have not been completely clear how to win one of the great prizes during this month-long Law of Attraction Blog Carnival celebration.
My bad!
So here is a dedicated post with all the details on how to enter to win.
1. Link to Evolving Times. If you have a blog or website, add a link to the Evolving Times blog, the Law of Attraction Carnival Homepage, the Party Announement, or another post that you want to share with your readers during the month of August and you’ll automatically be entered to win both the weekly prizes and the grand prizes.
To be sure that you’re added to the list, I would encourage you to also send me an email or leave a comment since some incoming links seem to get lost in the shuffle over at Technorati.
You can send an email to contest at evolvingtimes dot com.
If you are linking from a website [non-blog] you must send me an email or leave a comment because Technorati does not track your links. (You only need to link in once to be eligible for all of the weekly prizes as well as the bigger prizes at the end of the month).
2. Subscribe to the Evolving Times Feed. Everyone who is an active ET feed subscriber will be eligible to win prizes. (Every subscriber will also receive a special link to the Subscriber Bonus Package which includes some great free gifts and special offers). Again, subscribers will be eligible to receive weekly prizes as well as the bigger prizes. At the bottom of your feed you will find special instructions on how to enter.
You can subscribe to the feed here.
3. Leave a comment or lots of them. You may have noticed that I reset the top commenters list in the sidebar. (I’ve also added the do-follow plugin, so every comment you leave from now on will be an active link back to your blog or website). Each week one of the top ten commenters listed in the sidebar will be chosen at random to win one of the weekly prizes. And at the end of August, the top three folks on that list will be bigger winners. So come on and join the conversation
4. Join my Email subscribtion list. In the spirit of inclusiveness - it was pointed out that not everyone knows what an RSS feed is much less how to subscribe - so you can also enter the contest by joining my email list. Just fill out the simple form below, confirm your subscription and you’ll go directly to the Subscriber Bonus Package page in addition to being entered to win one of the other prizes.
And, yes, if you haven’t already figured it out, doing more than one of these things DOES increase your chances of winning!
Thanks again to everyone who has donated prizes! And thanks to all of you who have already subscribed and/or linked in. And, of course, many thanks to everyone who is reading Evolving Times. Your presence here makes this all worthwhile!

A Technical Mulligan On The Law Of Attraction Live Radio Show
I just checked the stats on the recording of the first Law of Attraction Live Radio show. Almost 200 of you have tried to listen to the show. If you’re one of them, you undoubtedly heard that there were some technical problems. Specifically, at about 12-minutes into the show you heard my “station” get taken over by a bunch of folks speaking a foreign language.
The live broadcast, fortunately, was fine. It was just the recording that got messed up.
Ah, I just love technology!
Really I do. And in spite of the trouble with the recording of the first show, I’m forging onward with Blogtalkradio and Law of Attraction Live: Practical Tools For Creating The Life You Desire.
Because the recording messed up, I’m going to repeat the first show so that I’ll have a good recording available for listeners.
Here’s the description of Monday’s show.

Monday March 19th from 11:00am – 12:00pm (Pacific Time)
Getting clear about what you want is perhaps the most important step you can take to activate the Law of Attraction in your life. Unfortunately, many people have a difficult time knowing what they want. On this show we will explore some of the beliefs and patterns that get in the way of our wanting and I will share some powerful tools for exercising and strengthening your desire muscle.

Message To Al Gore - Change The Tagline For LiveEarth
I was so excited about the previous post on Al Gore’s LiveEarth Concert that it didn’t even occur to me that something was amiss until just now.
What’s wrong about a global event to combat climate crisis you might ask? Absolutely nothing is wrong with the event. What is wrong is their focus on “Combatting Climate Crisis.”
It’s wrong for two big reasons. First, whenever you fight or combat something, you are setting up sides, right and wrong, positive and negative and entering into the endeavor from a place of adversarial perception. The last thing we need right now in our move towards sustainability is more battle.
Second, by focusing the Climate Crisis, what are they bringing global attention to? Correct, the climate crisis? From a Law of Attraction perspective, what do we want to focus global attention on? Right again, sustainability, or a clean environment or fresh air, or … well you get the idea.
So how about it Al? Would you be willing to change your tagline from The Concert to Combat Climate Crisis to something like The Concert to Create A Clean Earth?
How about if we come up with a great tagline that engages the powerful, positive focusing forces of the Law of Attraction and send it over to Al and the folks at LiveEarth?
Leave a comment below with your thought for a great tagline for this awesome event.
