Hi Scott, sorry I didn’t see the reply. am not sure if I received email notification about it. Anyway, the development is going on full speed and I’ll release it as soon as I feel it is ready to go mainstream. It is just a simple concept. I’ve been working day and nights for past one month. Hopefully I’ll be able to launch it in May. (2010 it is)

Cs. Thanks for stopping by; I really appreciate the feedback and kind words. I’m hoping to offer advice that I’ve found to work for me, and drop all the marketing items that you find in other books. Glad you like it so far.

“Lot’s of Conviction” should be “Lots of Conviction”, no apostrophe. There’s a good summary of apostrophe usage at http://theoatmeal.com/comics/apostrophe.

Nice web site. One suggestion, in your “Science of Goals” diagram, the releases fear smiley should be a frown instead of a smile. Fear does not bring a smile to my face. Keep up the good work.

Excellent article, Scott.

I’ve been reading a number of books and authors this last little while (Ziglar, Nightingale and others like Gitomer) and the issue I’ve always had a hard time with is the statement of goal-setting outlined for very similar reasons here.

I like your choice of word of ‘conviction’ instead of ‘faith’. I can’t help but intertwine thoughts of religion and god when I read faith, but conviction I can accept. Conviction seems to imply something that faith doesn’t, which is reflection of a thought and/or self, a concious steeling of resolve and the idea of “sticking to it”. For me, faith seems to imply asking and hoping that things will happen.

Can’t wait to read more.

Hey PK — Good to see ya, as always. I really like your tracking system. I’ve always thought a great way to look at where you are and where you want to be, is through a time-line visualization. They really tend to work. I’ll have to mull that around on how to implement that within the book. How long have you been doing this?

Also, each time you post I get more and more eager to check out TaskBender! When’s it going to be ready?
