I’ve created a first-draft outline for the discussion forums to be added to this site (previously announced in July). It isn’t easy to subdivide such a vast field without too much overlap between categories, but to me this seems a decent breakdown.
Technically I could launch the forums right now, but given the size of this site’s audience, I’m doing more planning to make the launch as smooth as possible. For one I’ll need plenty of moderation help. I’ll post a call for moderators as soon as I get the initial forum structure nailed down… probably next week.
I’d love to hear your feedback on this outline, especially from experienced forum moderators/administrators.
These forums will be shared with ErinPavlina.com, so I think we’ll end up with a very lively community. Erin and I are excited to provide a place where our visitors can connect with each other.
A couple items to note: There will be a special forum for people who want to experiment with intention-manifestation. This will make it easy for people to conduct their own group experiments. Secondly, there will be a forum to assist you in forming your own local personal development groups, so you can connect with like-minded people who share your passion for growth. When a stable local group is formed, I may be able to provide a private forum for its members as well (no promises though).
