My First Open Forum

My First Open Forum

Written by Brooke Ferguson

Topics: Going Global

Hi Friends!

I’m really excited because I’m realizing my readership has Gone Global! I’m getting comments from all over the U.S. and I’m recently getting more comments from overseas…  Japan, South Africa, England, the Netherlands and Finland.

So, for FUN, I thought it would be great to start an Open Forum to get some of you newer readers, or new to commenting readers talking.  I want this site to be an informative place to connect, so it would be great if you could say hello so others could link to you!

I have a few questions that I’d love your feedback on, feel free to answer one, or all, but please comment away.  You may not feel your voice is heard in other parts of the world, but all of your thoughts count here!!!

Questions…

Where are you from, or where are you living?


What topics would you like to see on this site?


Are there any questions you have about living / working abroad?


Help!  I can’t Name My eBook!


And… I’m VERY EXCITED to ANNOUNCE the release of my first eBook…  BUT I NEED YOUR HELP! I am having a really hard time landing on a Title for the book.  This one last glitch is delaying my release, and maybe you could help me decide? The topics covered are an overview of the consulting I do with my clients.  It shows how you can make personal changes in your attitude and actions related to time, money, behaviors, and structuring your business to live the life of your dreams!  Very fun stuff!


Book title options…..

Here are a few I’ve come up with, let me know what you like , or add a new one of your own!

  • Return on Life:  Reclaim Your Business and Your Life!
  • Living Your Dream: a guidebook to lifestyle mastery
  • Lifestyle Design 101
  • Building the Life You’ve Always Dreamed of

I’m really excited to Get People Talking more on this site, so Please Comment on any of the topics above, I’d really like to meet you & learn more about you!

    Where I am, where I was last: I’m living in Thailand, my last home was London.

    Book title: Living Your Dream: a guidebook to lifestyle mastery

  2. Cody McKibben Says:

    I like the “Living Your Dream: a guidebook to lifestyle mastery” too, but maybe a combo of that with the “reclaiming your business and your life” part. I’m excited to read the ebook!

    Neil, I didn’t know you were here in Thailand already! Well, as Brooke knows, but maybe not all of you, I’m from northern California originally, but currently live in Bangkok, Thailand and have been traveling throughout the region for the last year.

  3. Brooke Ferguson Says:

    @Neil – Are you coming for Christmas in Krabi?? Would be fun to meet up! Thanks for commenting and voting for the book idea!

    @Cody – All the cool people are in Thailand – haha. Thanks for sharing and hopefully we will all get to meet up for the holidays!

  4. Prime Says:

    My vote goes to “Living Your Dream: a guidebook to lifestyle mastery” – as i think this title completely defines your ebook

    Where are you from, or where are you living? _ I’m from Manila Philippines, living in Manila Philippines

    What topics would you like to see on this site?—more ideas on what kind of business than an LIP can set up; what are the best LIP locations; also if possible, feature more Asian LIPs which Asians like me can relate to

    Are there any questions you have about living / working abroad? — hmm not now. I used to live abroad (singapore) anyway, so i can pretty much hack it

  5. Prime Says:

    Cody – All the cool people are in Thailand – haha. Thanks for sharing and hopefully we will all get to meet up for the holidays! — Yeah i think so too. i should really move there (nah…i have set my sights on beijing. china is so dynamic, it’s the country to be “in” now for business journalists )

  6. Dan Says:

    Brooke, I’m with Cody on this one:

    “Living Your Dream: Reclaim Your Business and Your Life.”

    I’m looking forward to reading the book.

    I’m from San Diego, in the past 2 years I’ve been running my business from Vietnam, San Diego, Montreal, Cambodia, and now Manila. I’m flying to Thailand in a week or so to take a vacation and meet up with Sean Ogle from Location 180. What is your suggestion for a great beach town to check out? I’ve already been to Koh Samui, looking for some new diggs.

    In terms of the site, my favorite topics are mindset issues, and specific business tactics/tools.

  7. Anil Says:

    I like ‘Living Your Dream: Turning Your Vision Into Reality’.

    As for me, right now I’m in Iceland and after a bit of travel I’ll be living in northern Germany for a few months. There I’ll be working and saving for another move somewhere in South America.

  8. Juha Says:

    I find it very delightful that so many of us seem to love Thailand! Maybe we’re going to base a online geek community there someday.. I think Cody’s already doing great job with all those “tweetups” and stuff :D Well anyway, to your questions.

    I’m from Oulu, Finland (http://tinyurl.com/ybwbve6). I was born about 300 km’s north from here, in a village called Sodankylä. Been living and working in Oulu for the past 10 years.

    Topics: What I like best in your blog are the interviews and lifestyle design related posts. Keep ‘em coming!

    E-book title: Living your dream: Reclaim Your Business and Your Life (or the one Anil suggested, I like both!)

    Questions: Plenty! But I’ll come back to that when we get to do the interview! :)

    Keep up the good work Brooke and all the best with your climbing training!
