Michael Gerber's In the Dreaming Room
This last weekend I attended an event with Michael Gerber, author of the E-Myth Revisited. The event is a huge departure from his past ventures of teaching entrepreneurs to systemize and automate their businesses but let me explain why...
A few months ago when my friend Mitch Meyerson and I interviewed Gerber on the "In The Dreaming Room" concept. The interview (which you can access at www.successconnections.com/gerber) really compelled me to rethink my own vision so I signed up for his 2 1/2 day event.

The appeal for me was the focus of "Dreaming" based on Walt Disney's "Dreaming Room" concept. The idea is that to truly create a world of meaning AND profit, we must connect with our most authentic and truthful vision of real success. And most of the time, the current vision we have been creating is just a smoke screen -- something we created based on a limited understanding of who we really are in this world.
So here is my personal experience of the workshop.
- I met some awesome people.
- Being with business owners who study and implement Gerber's E-Myth model really opened my eyes to a whole new dimension of possiblities.
- My"hot seat" really got me thinking. I was one of the first people to get a hot seat so I had the disadvantage of not really having 2 days of watching others. I shared my vision for wanting to build an entrepreneurial education system for young adults. Gerber challenged me to really think through my business model. Then he went into coaching mode and completely lost me. Not sure I liked that part (nor did most of the people there) but the overall experience was worth every uncomfortable moment. =-)
