Taking It Easy

Hey,

I thought it was good to update you on my Boundless Living Challenge's evolution... fast evolution in fact.

After I decided on the challenge according to what you read before, I realized that my life was going to become everything BUT fun. And, the purpose of life IS TO HAVE FUN. Therefore, I reworded the whole affair into a simple sentence:

"I will balance my activities in a way to achieve all my goals and I have lots of fun during the journey"

To me, this looks much better.

I have always changed my mind easily and this is just one more proof.


Two EXTREMELY SIMPLE Visualization Tools

This week I've tried two ways of making "mindmovies" or "active visionboards" with the programs I already have in my computer.

I found out two good ways to do this and the results of my two first attemps were quite acceptable.

1) A Powerpoint presentation. Including pictures and text. With transition effects. And I inserted in each slide the sound of my voice saying the texts. Files have to be MP3, so I used the program Nero Wave Editor. It's super simple to use and as you see how long your recording takes, you can synchronize it with the duration of your slide. If you make it quick, you get something quite similar from a mindmovie.

2) Thanks to my friend Suzie Cheel, who I met at www.personaldevelopmentpartners.com, of course, I learned about the site http://animoto.com/

It's a fantastic site where you can make your 30-sec free movie just uploading pictures and choosing some music (or uploading yours). You can see my "first video" that I placed it at the previous post here. It takes you 10 minutes!
There's also an option for full-length videos and it's not expensive at all! You can pay $3 for one movie.
