  THE POWER OF NOW - "Surrender & Forgiveness" by Eckhart Tolle   "Forgiveness" is a term that has been in use for 2,000 years, but most people have a very limited view of what it means. You cannot truly forgive yourself or others as long as you derive your sense of self from the past. Only through accessing The Power of Now, which is your own power, can there be true forgiveness. This renders the past powerless, and you realize deeply that nothing you ever did or that was ever done to you could touch even in the slightest the radiant essence of who you are. The whole concept of forgiveness then becomes unnecessary.   And how do I get to that point of realization?   When you surrender to what is and so become fully present, the past ceases to have any power. You do not need it anymore....

Section 3 of this writing tutorial is called: "How to write strong cover by emphasizing the BEST Benefits of your offer".  One of the most repeated rules of compelling copy is to stress benefits, not features. In other words, identify the underlying benefit that each feature of a product or service provides to the prospect, because that’s what will prompt the purchase. This is one rule that always applies, except when it doesn’t, then you're in trouble. Common sense suggests that you apply his patented “forehead slap” test to see if your copy truly contains a benefit to the reader. In other words, have you ever woken up from a deep sleep, slapped yourself in the forehead, and exclaimed “Man… I need to balance my blood sugar levels naturally!” I think not. So getting someone to pull out ...

  I was recently reading about not-for-profit real estate undertakings in order to understanding how real estate challenges and opportunities affect the not-for-profit and social purpose sectors Have you ever thought about social effects of your real estate transaction? Here's what I found that you might find very interesting.  The Real Estate Institute of British Columbia (REIBC), in collaboration with the Social Purpose Real Estate Collaborative (SPRE), is pleased to announce an innovative project to understand the real estate challenges and opportunities facing the not-for-profit and social purpose sector.  So often we as REALTORS of residential and commercial properties do not consider how development and social planning affects not-for-profits and other NGOs.  As a critical tool to...

Home for the Holidays 2011 - Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver - Christmas Trees I was honoured to be invited to join a host of very talented Designers and Home Stagers from across Vancouver to participate in this year's Home for the Holidays event.   Representing my company, Exit Stage Right, the theme for my Christmas tree is "A Teddy Bear's Christmas Picnic".   Ten Christmas trees are decorated, and there is a friendly competition for the best decorated tree.  In the next few days, I thought I'd share some of these fabulous trees.  Such thought and imagination went into each and every tree. Here is one of my favourite trees this year.  Those who know me, know that I'm a complete francophile.  I basically love everything French!  You can imagine my delight when I feasted my eyes on this be...
