    Thanks for this book suggestion, Derek! I've read Make It Stick and it has got to be one of my top 5 favorite books, so any mention of the Heath brothers immediately grabs my attention.

    Exactly what you said - Bright spots can be useful in analyzing data - Analytics instead of looking for broad patterns

    I'm an online yoga teacher, most of my viewers are 35-44 year old women who want to practice yoga, however on my secondary channel where I answer yoga questions, my bright spots are people with constipation and people who stand all day. I talk to a lot of those people over there. Maybe some of them come and do yoga with me, not entirely sure. Love your videos thank you so much. I already filmed a behind the scenes and I am working on a demo. With gratitude, Melissa

      lol! totally hilarious! I think that is why those videos are so popular, it is something people are uncomfortable to talk about in the "light" of day. However, I don't mind talking about it :) But you are right about my comment being funny :)

    Love this and will be buying that book. It helped you and maybe it will help me too.
    I was a typist for many years and always had done two spaces. Took me a long time NOT to do that. But good Lord when I teach I have been know to say “carriage return.” 😳
    I’ll have to give some thought to finding bright spots. I have niched myself pretty tightly so not quite sure what this means for me.

    That's a good question - how am I going to use the bright spots. I'll have to cogitate on that and get back to you.

    Bright spot is that I teach toddlers yoga in libraries (Reading Comes Alive With Yoga) where parents get classes free and the library pays me. I use the mindfulness based intervention tools to direct and redirect the children. When parents are looking for ways to redirect their children *without yelling* and with friendliness, they accept my invitation to learn to make and use their own tools. The flippin' signs, the Time Machine for do-overs, and many more. Makes a real difference in fun and friendliness in family routines. I am their bright spot.

    Still trying to assess my bright spots.
    PS 1. Love your hair (you should tip your hairdresser LOADS)
    PS 2. As a grammar nazi, I hate being told when I write stuff wrong...
    PS 3. I have bad eyesight too (contacts are my life) I will never be seen in public wearing specs.
    PS 4. I am so distracted by your hairy arms (not a bad thing, don't feel bad!) You should be motivated to create a channel about your arm hair :P

    HI DEREK. Big fan. Since hair dresser got your interest, you might have in interest in this. I'm the owner of a property maintenance company in London UK. Powerpillar LTD. I run the business and do the jobs all by myself. On the outside people think it's a very big company. I'm having problems of getting more clients and afraid of hiring because I may not have enough jobs for them. I really want to grow. Help.....
