What needs have you seen?
Last week I asked you – the readers - to write in and share some of your thoughts on what needs you have seen in the market. We had a terrific response, lots of ideas, thoughts, comments, and questions. Thank you for your input! One of the great things about our blog and ezine is that we get a chance to develop conversations with our readers, as opposed to offering a monologue.
Christina shared with me the following :
This is the key first step, remember: 'if it ain't broke - don't fix it'! You want to fix the company's need, not yours, not what you think the company's need is.
Lynn shared a story about a masters student in New York City, named Debra Adler:
Debra saw a need to design a medication bottle. She created a new packaging system called Clear RX, due to the fact her grandparents took each others’ medication by mistake. That bottle is now used by the retail chain, Target.
Lorena mentioned the following about Interac use :
Both sides of an Interac machine should have a reader, so that it doesn't matter which way you put the card in. Maybe they are all the same, but people like me can't remember, so we're always turning the card around. Tellers must use the line "turn it the other way" with almost every customer!
Helen shared:
My favourite story about this is the bagged salad people. The original manufacturers were farmers who just washed and plastic-bagged their own salad so they'd have something to eat quickly during the busy farm day. They decided to sell a few of those, began marketing to a few local stores. I think they are multi-millionaires now.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to write – I enjoyed reading your comments!

How to Make Your Dreams Come True
Of course not all dreams are pleasant and making them come true can be worse than being trapped inside a cosole horror game.
But some dreams are produced by our deeper minds and are our inner-most desires, often disguised in some strange way.
However, there is another kind of dream and that is the kind we are consciously aware of and we have them during the daylight hourse and are often just fleeting thoughts.
You know the kind. "I wish I was on a world cruise enjoying myself rather than being stuck here in the factory or behind a desk." Yes, that's also a dream because it has it is a desire that has sirfaced into our conscious minds and is something we wish for at an unconscious level.
Of course, making those kind of dreams come true is more than not virtually impossible. For example, to wish to win the lottery may never become reality in this lifetime.
However, some dreams can become reality as so many graduates of my Hypnotherapy Course have discovered.
I decided three years ago to give thousands of 'dreamers' the opportunity to fullfill their dreams and ebcome a therapist. So many people want to help other people overcome their illnesses and mental blockages to life that their only stumbling block was the cost of training. I know of hypnotherapy courses costing as much as £7,000 (more than $11,000) and training in other forms of Alternative Medicine costing as much. To become a Doctor (M.D.) can cost as much as the purchase of a house.
So, with my teeth firmly gritted together, and a determination I have no known for years, I set the goal to help at least a thousand people make their dreams come true by reducing the cost of Hypnotherapy Training so it was within the reach of almost anyone in the World.
I passed that goal having had more than 1,400 students enrol and over 800 graduate.
So in helping others make their dreams come true, I made my own dream come true and at the age of sixty-nine years of age, I am proud of that.
