31 Ways to Change State

Our 31 Ways to Change State project is on-going. I’ve heard from a few subscribers that the ideas have helped to adjust emotions… one person wants to license my emails to send to his clients… and I’ve lost a handful of subscribers as well. Eh — Peace out!

If you have any feedback or questions, I’m always open and I read every email. If you find the info useful, feel free to forward the emails to your friends (and increase your own influence in the process).

How to Argue and Win Every Time (Audiobook)

Gerry Spence is a high-profile trial lawyer with a history of winning his cases. This audobook of How to Argue and Win Every Time is available at no cost on Archive.org. I don’t know how long this may or may not be available. I own the book as well and, like the many other books I have, I expect to write it up here on PRL to add to the collection of over 18 book summaries

 

Christmas Gift Ideas

If you’re looking for a few gift ideas—

Analog watches are all the rage these days. Everyone has a smart phone with a clock, I get it. But sometimes you don’t want to start in with the digital black hole time suck that we mistakenly call a ‘phone.’ Plus, a nice watch adds a bit of class to your wardrobe. Check out Seventeenth Watches, they have a big sale going on right now.

Lola & Doe makes organic, handmade, small-batch soaps. I’m currently using the Coconut Chocolate Butter bar to treat my dry winter skin. Loving its results, and the great sensory experience when I shower. Can you imagine the smiles when your family and friends get a whiff? Good stuff.
