Core Strength for your Studio at WPPI

It was a great evening at WPPI. I loved the energy from my guests and was thrilled to see so many people and smiling faces. My good friend Tony shared with me after the show about the "transference of energy" and how people don't always realize how much they can affect one person, or a group of people, by the quality and quantity of their energy. I certainly felt great energy from the room and it made for a really fun night. The program was on the culmination of ideas, concepts, techniques, and services that I've learned and used over my 20 years in business. One of my key points at the end was on the importance of "Riding the Dragon of Fear", which is the process of facing and dealing with the things that are either uncomfortable or causing you some fear or resistance. It seems it always turns out for the better when you ride it now.

I have to admit, I was a bit worried about having my program alongside the fabulous Jasmine Star. I'd go see HER if I had a chance too! A few days ago I teased her about us speaking at the same time and told her I fully expected an empty room 'cause they'd all be in her program :-) She was very sweet, and told me about her very first WPPI experience years ago when she came to one of my programs and became very inspired. She said she hoped that she could just inspire one person the way I inspired her. Jasmine, I'm sure you've inspired thousands by now. She's an amazing woman and hope everyone will get a chance to see her and get to know her a little better too.

For those in attendance, here's the link to download the seminar notes. I hope it brings you much success! Don't forget you'll need the password I shared with you at the program to download and view the notes. Thanks again everyone!

Thanks so much for the awesome class, Kevin! I was really left inspired - I will be really looking into how I run things thanks to all the great things you talked about. And thanks SO much for making it so we could download the notes. I forgot my pen and paper that day :)

Best wishes,

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for a wonderful presentation at WPPI. I attended your session on Tuesday in which you encouraged us to take action and shoot alphabet characters. I felt inspired and immediately started looking for images – I found almost all within the hotel complex..
I remember you saying something about posting the results to your blog but I am not sure how... I see that no one else has yet posted, so perhaps I am the first :-) Here is the link to a final result on my blog: http://aniafieldsphotoart.com/blog/
Thanks again for the idea, it was a fun and creative project. I welcome your feedback and critique. See you next year in Vegas :-)

Kevin your presentation was fanastic. I was scribbling down ntoes that I've read over at least twice now and even highlighted a few things. I'm off to find a B.L.I.N.G. book and have every intension of writing what my personal success will look like.

Thanks for getting back to me regarding where to send my alphabet project images, I was able to upload them per your instructions with no problems.

I look forward to learning more from your vast experiences and reading about your adventures. Thank you so much for inspiring me.

PS- Photo Ingite was awesome! Gustavo, jules and Joy did an encore presentation last night at the PUG/FEO meeting. Now we're inspired to see if other members want to step up to the challenge at the local SMUG meetup.
