The Personal Development List: A Deceptively Simple Emotional Intelligence Story
October 25th, 2007 by Galba Bright
All meaningful and lasting change starts first in your imagination and then works its way out. Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Why The Personal Development List Became So Popular
Can you explain Priscilla Palmer’s Personal Development List story by focussing on whether or not she has a high IQ ? I suggest not.
Did her technical skills help her to transform a small list of her 5 favourite Personal Development blogs into an amazing resource containing 600 blogs or more ? I’m sure they did.
But wait, there’s more.
New Personal Development Book
Now Priscilla’s invited all the bloggers on the Personal Development List to write an article for a new personal development book. You can read more about her new big idea here.
Why The Personal Development List Story Is All About EQ
Priscilla is at the centre of a compelling emotional intelligence story. She used her self-awareness to become clear about what she really wanted. Then, she drew on all her faculties, mind, body and spirit, to develop a compelling idea.
Priscilla’s initiative captivated hundreds of bloggers and readers.
Here’s part of what she told me in a recent interview:
“When I go to bed before I fall asleep, I have a habit of asking (myself, God, and the universe) a question like ‘what can I write about that will have a positive impact on the world?’ Then I close my eyes and let ideas flow in.”
What’s In It For You?
Imagine how you can benefit from the Personal Development List. Just think how many people around the world are using it to achieve their goals.
Are you moved by personal development? Here’s another opportunity to create your own reality by getting involved in this project.
If you’re on the List you’ve can write another chapter in an intruiging story about the power of imagination.
I’ll submit an article to help spread the word about how to improve your emotional intelligence. I encourage you to read and write about the Personal Development List story.
What’s Next?
The progress of this deceptively simple emotional intelligence story is limited only by your imagination and your willingness to take positive action.
Who else wants to read a story with a happy ending? :).
