The 3 Step Process:

  1. Right down everything bad that’s ever happened to you.
  2. Right down anything positive that resulted from those bad things.
  3. Consider the “bridge” of you got from bad to good. Is it replicable / teachable? Boom: course idea!

  1. Vasavi’s course is not free…. $30. I was actually going to buy it, then during show she says it would be free….. So I m thinking it’s free, after 1st email, it’s $30….. Turn off, don’t lie. It’s probably worth more, but you have to trust someone I think you guys talk about that all the time.
