Metrocard Overload

This very thing happened when I was with my friend Danielle recently — she was searching and searching for a card with $2.25 for a one-way trip on the NYC subway.

I’m thrilled to announce that I will be participating in a webinar on Wednesday, February, 8th at 8pm ET. It’s being hosted by the fabulous people over at FriendsHealthConnection.org, which is a community website for people dealing with health issues. It’s for people struggling with an ailment, people who love them and just about anyone else who is interested in health. They have hosted other guests such as Dr. Maya Angelou and the Dalai Lama.

The webinar will focus on list making and how it can make you successful in all areas of your life: work, home, body, mind and soul! It will be live and I’ll use my webcam to communicate with everyone. There will be a moderator and we will take as many questions as possible in the hour. After the success of my teleseminar a few weeks ago — I’m really looking forward to this new format. I do hope that you’ll join me! Please sign up today.

Who would have thought so many people could talk about lists for over an hour? Well, you can! And we did! I was lucky enough to participate in a teleseminar called “Compulsive List Making: The How’s and The Why’s” with Meggin McIntosh, Ph.D. We talked about:

effective techniques for making lists to get more done
what kind of lists have worked best for me
how lists help people in all professions be more productive and efficient
my favorite list-making apps
questions from listeners
and so much more!

In case you missed it, click here to sign up for a copy of the recording and listen to it whenever you get a chance. I’ve also created a special tab called “teleseminar” at the top of my site. Here you’ll find every blog post, app, website and technique I mentioned on the call. I hope this information is useful and I’d love to hear what you think of it! Happy list making!
