Communication Basics: A Quick Update

It has been some time since I made an entry on this blog.  My goal had originally been to resume submitting posts in August of 2014.  Now we are fair distance from that time frame.  So I want to offer a quick update.

My book, Mental Health for Everyone: In Captivating, Motivating, Inspiring, Meaningful Pictures is very near completion.  The pictures in the book are what have me excited.  Before long, I will be sharing something about at least one of them, before the book arrives on shelves.

I wish I had time today to do that, but I have to get back to writing and finishing that race before I begin another.  Let me say this quickly - the book has huge implications for communication.

Imagine this - you could summarize the smarts of the two authors of the Johari Window, of Vince Lombardi in Instant Replay and John Wooden's Pyramid of Success, the wave diagrams for manic-depression and hyper-activity, and the work on education and translation by Benjamin Bloom and by Eugene Nida all on one page.  Now that is something to be excited about, isn't it?  

I have been very fortunate to simplify all this material to where it is now accessible from the starting line on one page!  You only have to see the back side of the same sheet to picture the finish line!

That is what is in my book.  The danger in a book is that the person gets lost in the forest due to too many trees.  I and my editors will be working hard to make sue the pictures (or diagrams) in the book remain the focus.

Please pray that I can hasten the project along.  That is enough for now.  It is coming soon, I pray!


Sincerely,

Jon

P. S. Don't be too late to the start and too soon to the finish!
