Free "Out of the Blue" FocusCatalyst Emails
As described in FOCUS. The Catalyst for Creativity, a "BLUE" is a happy surprise. The more you notice them, the more they show up in your life.

I send out a randomly timed "Request for BLUES" email about once a month to everyone who signs up for this free email service.  Go to the Sign Up to receive them.

FocusCatalyst FocusTours
Held monthly from San Francisco to Sausalito via ferry and quarterly from San Francisco to Yosemite via Amtrak train, FocusTours are also periodically conducted in other parts of the United States and in Europe.

On all FocusTours I teach how to use a variety of FocusCatalyst techniques.  They're lively, fun and you'll come away from them with ideas, insights and solutions to your own particular personal or professional questions and challenges.

Monthly FocusTours are held the second Saturday of every month at the San Francisco Ferry Building from 10AM to 1PM and include a round trip ferry ride to Sausalito. Go to Sign Up to have more information about them emailed to you.
