Let's start by how I started this week. First, I decided to look at my Ching. I did some meditation and focused on a particular area of my life and received my hexagram of deliverance. I'm like…. Hmmm… Deliverance. This is a good topic to discuss in my podcast.

It said, "After a thunderstorm or any period of extreme tension, a period of new clarity and fresh opportunity follows. The storm has the effect of clearing the air and suddenly reducing atmospheric tension. Deliverance is at hand. In the wake of a storm on land, deliverance appears in the form of new color and life, which bursts forth in all the fields and flowers. In the wake of a storm at sea, deliverance takes the form of land itself."

I see that our efforts with online conferencing, podcasting, video, and other ways of communicating for coaching and training with An Ever Better World internet academy with Darlene Sartore and others like Kurt Steele and Tim Romeo is finally paying off, and we are getting things done. This will be an exciting year for everyone that's involved because our goal is simple. We want An Ever Better World.

Second, Obama Barack decision to run for the 08 president candidacy. Americans are pushing. We are changing his focus. He can't ignore our cries. It's very important to see this in this point of view because you have realize that his made the decision in 06 not to run because of the same view that many say now, he's too inexperienced. But we all know, by the Laws of Attraction, this makes no difference. This is the ONLY reason he also sees that his experience makes no difference, because so many have faith. I will not make this a political topic, I just wanted to stick with what makes a person change their directions in life.

Hilary on the other hand will have a lot on her shoulders. As a black woman, I must say… looking at the historical event of the situation and not political views… I wonder if I would like to witness the first black president or the first female president. Remember not who's running but just that point alone. Hmmm.. I would say that's kinda tough. So.. I made a poll on my black work at home moms site to see what others have to say, and see how black females would decide. But anyone can vote. Because you can always ask yourself that question. If you live to see another historical event, but only one of these two choices, which one would you like achieved in this country?

So let's move on the third topic. Meetup. Now I finally got an ever better world internet academy meetup group going with Darlene. I will help with the meetup promoting, as an assistant organizer. Most of the meetups will be online through our conference room, but we will also have local meetups as we expand. Now since meetups are some of my training I focus on, I have an interesting email from meetup.

Whether it’s a Meetup of two or ten, finding the right meeting place can be tricky -- but we’re here to help! We’ve paired with Panera Bread®, your neighborhood bakery-cafe, to help area Meetups find that right place.

Not only is Panera Bread a warm and welcoming place for Meetups, but when you have your next Meetup there, they’ll even buy you and your members a cup of coffee (See coupon for details).

To print your coupon (yep, you’ll only need one coupon for up to 10 free cups of coffee) and find the closest location, click here:

Thanks for using Meetup.com!

Now remember I told you that meetup uses the feedback from it's organizers. They see what, when, and how we are growning our meetups and pass the information on to other organizers to help each other grow our local events.

When I first started, I couldn't find much listed for the south suburbs of chicago, so I did my own research and found panera breads as a great place for a meetup and listed several panera breads for each meetup. I could recover them for meetings etc., not realizing that meetup also has this information. Next thing I know another meetup was formed in my area, and picked panera as their location to meet because of me. Months later, I received this email. So not only did I help meetup, but in return, meetup helped me based on my efforts, and now I can offer free coffee at panera for my meetings. Is that cool or what? You have to go with your guts and just be YOU. Just like one person like Obama, or a organization like meetup, listens to the people and/or their members and give us what we want because that's where true success lies.

So everyone… was my Ching on point or what? Deliverance!! What an interesting start for my short week as I keep my focus on targets. Keep that eye on the prize and you do the same.
