One Percent Project: One Final Push

Since launching the One Percent Project almost a month ago today, we've managed to get the project to 84% funding with all of your amazing help. For that, I'd like to thank you sincerely on behalf of the whole Radiiate & Rockstar Foundation team; without your help this would not have been possible!

But (there's always a but, right?), we would so love to have the project 100% funded before we hit the start of 2011, so we're hoping we can count on you to make one final donation. And I'd like to incentivize this is a little...

Get the Twitter machine working!

Please tweet, re-tweet and re-re-tweet the following tweet:
Contribute to the One Percent Project. RT this & @adii donates $0.10 to charity for every tweet. http://bit.ly/onepercentproject
For every single tweet or re-tweet, I will personally donate $0.10 USD to the One Percent Project to make sure that we reach that 100% mark before the New Year starts. I'm obviously also counting on you guys & girls to help me out by actually donating to the project as well... :)

More Incentives

In addition to the *extreme warm fuzzies* of contributing to a great project, I will further try to make this worth your while. Every single donation and tweet from now until the end of the year (i.e. 31 December 2010 for those that tend to confuse easily :)) will be entered into a prize draw for an awesome little gift package:
  • A signed hard cover edition of my book, Rockstar Business, along with a PDF version. (Note: The hard cover is actually sold out and not available otherwise.)
  • 2 hours of my virtual time to answer any questions, be a consultant for your business or whatever.
  • An awesome, limited edition WooThemes gift package, which includes the special "Where there is a WOO, there is a way" t-shirt.
Not bad hey? Now get donating & tweeting! :)

Everything is Amazing...

Next up on my to do of content is to complete the first chapter of Designing Emotion (I've already submitted almost 20k words to our editor) and this chapter includes a section titled "Everything is amazing and nobody is happy"... This I've found to be a rather accurate description of how I feel...

See in the past 3 months I've only been at home for about 4 weeks of that time, due to my extensive travelling for both pleasure & business. In fact I'm typing this on my 24 hour flight from Cape Town to Vegas, where I'm speaking at a conference. So this is another 2 weeks that I'll be away from home.

I get that most people would love to see the Greek islands, London, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Vienna, Vegas & LA on a 3 month whirlwind trip. And it has been a great opportunity (to be paid to travel) and experience, but for me at least the timing of all this has been too much.

At the moment I crave routine, I crave a full 7 day work week and I'd love to be home more often and celebrate my newly status with my wife. ;) I'm probably different in that regard: if everything is amazing, I can't be happy unless these personal requirements are also met.

1Password on Chrome

Successfully changed my default browser from Safari to Chrome after spending too many hours beach-balling and crashing. Also installed the awesome new version of 1Password which features some sexy Chrome love. :)
