Subjective Reality Workshop is the one that really intrigues me.

I FELT very excited and happy when I read that there is going to be a workshop about it.

Now, when I'm calculating the cost of workshop+travel+hotel+food. I find myself feeling not too excited. And finding myself making excuses that I could easily receive similar NOT equal. Just similar education through means of books/e-books/blogs/ and youtube.

Anyone else find themselves feeling hesitant and making up excuses from a place of fear of not taking this workshop?

I even have thoughts that I'll most likely be the 1st person doing the money-back-guarantee.

Any input/feedback will be helpful.

@JGD, I have to agree someone on the Workshop+Travel+Hotel+Food equation. While I agree that right now I would not spend that money for one of these workshops you need to put it in perspective.

If you have the money available then do it. I attended CGW #5, and I can tell you it was a major change point for me. That change point was probably 30-35% content and 65-70% connections. In other words the actual workshop had less impact on me then the connections that I made with other people who attended the workshop.

Now I do see that you did say similar NOT equal education from a number of other sources, and I believe this is true, I do actually think if you read through the complete archive of Steve's blog, his book and combined it with some other sources as well it would be a better education then attending a workshop. HOWEVER the following.
1 - attending the workshop focuses your attention on this topic.
2 - If you were to read these books and ebooks and watch video's off youtube. Would you be able to focus this for 3 days, as in the workshop.
3 - How much time would you waste on ebooks videos, blogs that were not helpful.

I am not saying that anyone should just pay and attend the workshop because it is there, but if you want to focus your time and get the most out of your time, then the workshop will likely be a lot more productive.

Very glad to see Steve has more workshops coming up. Especially since I haven't been able to attend one yet. The Success workshop intrigues me specifically.

It's too bad the discount period for all of them ends after Friday (the 22nd), since I'm considering going to the Success one in January, but I'm not in a position to plan 6 months in advance right now.

It seems more logical to me to have the discount period for each workshop end 2 or 3 months before each workshop actually occurs. Am I mistaken for thinking so?

I suspect I'm not alone in having difficultly in being able to pin down if I'll actually be in a position to do a cross-the-country trip, 6 months in advance (or in the case, of the february workshop, 7 months).

Lightbulb CGW prepration bonus material

The audio that steve put for free with the CGW preperation bonus material is just amaizing, It has helped me get a clearer perspective on his book aswell.

I would strongly recomend that anyone who is even remotly interested in CGW or have read the book download the free prepration material and listen to the one hour audio.

Thank you Steve, I really appricate all your efforts

When I read your reply. I felt that it was a very honest/truthful reply. I thank you for that. Because It was very refreshing to read

My personal challenge was the Price. Having that voice in my head from my family members saying "That's Crazy! Why are you going to pay money to hear someone talk?" Was something that was getting to me.

Yet something within me, reminded me that months/years down the road. I would regret not taking the plunge and attending. I feel it's going to cause an awesome shift for everyone that attends

Plus the price of admission doesn't compare to the LOVING atmosphere that is going to be created during the workshop.

P.S. Anyone that is attending that is from the Los Angeles, CA area, open to the idea of car-pooling together? And/or sharing Hotel Costs? PM. if you are interested!


cliff notes: YES I'M ATTENDING THE SRW!

Default My Wife And I Signed Up For The Success Workshop

Just thought I'd say my wife and I signed up for the Conscious Success Workshop just now.

Earlier in the year, I had reservations about attending the Conscious Growth Workshop. Perhaps it was because I was intending to go alone. Either way, whatever reservations I had are gone and I believe this is the workshop both of us need as we seek to further our goals.

Looking forward to meeting you for the first time Steve.
