At this point, I’ve written almost 150 blog posts since April 17, 2006, the day Adversity University was officially born. A lot has happened since then and I wanted to celebrate its existence by bringing back some of the articles that very few people got to see since I was just starting out.
1. My Very First Blog- a short introductory piece when I first started at Blogger.com. Number of readers: 0!!!!
2. On the Road for Speaking Engagements - sharing an experience I had with a speaking engagement.
3. Imagine You’re in the Clouds and You Break Out - a pretty picture showing what it’s like being a pilot through instrument weather (i.e. “bad weather”) and then breaking out of the clouds to see the runway in front of you. It’s the greatest feeling in the world!
4. An Actual Instrument Approach - a link to a Google Video of an actual approach to an airport through bad weather. Although this was not a video of my flight, I’ve experienced similiar conditions numerous times.
5. Is Your Price Too Low? - a link to a great article about the value of pricing your services higher than you’ve been charging.
6. Turning the Universal Law of Giving to Your Advantage - Originally titled, “Universal Secrets of Turning Adversity Into Possibilities, this was my first real “self-help” post.
Tomorrow, I’ll add some more from “way back when” to give you a chance to see some of the earlier posts. I hope you enjoy going back there with me for a bit.

This post is inspiring. Many entrepreneurs struggle with the idea of pricing their services. This is a direct reflection of a person’s self-esteem and confidence. To go too high would reflect one kind of personality and to price to low would reveal other characteristics. The journey to deeper self-discovery is amazing!

@ Liara Covert:
I certainly remember my struggle with pricing! But nowadays I have no problem quoting what I’ve made public on my speaking website. Interesting that you say pricing is a direct reflection of a person’s self-esteem and confidence. Not everyone will agree with that viewpoint because some might say they need to start at a low price when just starting out.
But then again, I’ve heard of people getting a start in a certain business and their fees were just as high as those who’ve been in the business for years and you know what? They’re doing great!
So perhaps your self esteem statement has merit.
