My Big Why is to grow and evolve spiritually and develop creative, entertaining, and innovative ways to help others do the same.

Idea Generator comes out with my big twelve part/week vision quest attunement program on top (which we decided is too big to start with), closely followed by the other two other smaller day-trek programs (1 to 2-day workshops) I mentioned above (both in a tie for second).

One of the two smaller programs is a better entry into my brand and overall message, and it’s the shorter of the two, so I am leaning towards that one (discover and start living your soul’s purpose), possibly with a heroic story quest/adventure theme. I can incorporate my love of storytelling and sci-fi/fantasy into it without being limited to one specific story. I can present it live to start with at the end of Jan to test and refine my content, and then e-course and technify it up over the next few months.

TBC.

After much confusion, I’m thinking of going back to my original idea (the twelve module course I have designed all the content for), because that is the program I’m most passionate about. It is also central to the next phase of growing my business. And it came out first in the Idea Generator.

However, instead of creating a Vision Quest for all twelve modules, I’m thinking of building a smaller, synopsis-style, Walk in the Park version. It can function as an introduction to the bigger twelve module program (which I am going to run as a hybrid live teaching/coaching program until I have e-coursed it up).

Obviously I need to make sure I can provide real transformational value in the Walk in the Park and make sure it isn’t just a free-intro marketing video that doesn’t include any real content.

I am really confused now and thinking maybe I am trying to do too much with my theme idea and perhaps need to simplify it.

I really love the idea of having the story running as a narrative that weaves everything together, but I have absolutely no idea how I can incorporate these elements visually through tech and video. The characters in my novel aren’t really ones that I can dress up as. Not in a believable way anyway. None of them are human except for the main character. Plus they are already presented in animation-style on my book cover, so it would be confusing to the brand to try to present them in another way. Really the only way I can incorporate the characters in a way that is true to the story would be to animate them, and basically, I would need to create the equivalent of a professionally animated movie of the book! Not to mention I would need a professional animation studio to do this and a MASSIVE budget. Which is way beyond the scope of my first product version.

I still like the idea of the UFO journey… this is central to the story and also a good metaphor for raising your vibration, which is the overall theme of my course. But maybe I need to find a way that I can either a) incorporate *just* the settings of the story (which will still be tricky and probably weird and lacking in context without the characters), or b) use the settings from each of the guided meditations as the UFO landing destination background for each module, and teach the content through standard images and slides on a screen on the UFO. I could get away with dressing up as the main character and presenting the content. Although I don’t know if this is really necessary if there aren’t any other characters and could also get boring after a while.

Hmmmm I will have a think about both of these more simplified options in more detail and see if I can get either of them to work in my head, and see if the story element would still work.

Back to the drawing board!
