Welcome to the March 17, 2007 edition of the Carnival of Powerful Living! Thank you to everyone who sent submissions this week.

As usual, the carnival is packed with great material, both practical and brilliant.

Each week, I feature one or two submissions that really caught my eye. These posts are well-written, pertinent, entertaining, and original. Be sure to check them out.

One thing I’d like to work on is making sure all of this great work gets the exposure it deserves. Please consider posting a link to the carnival on your site or forwarding the link along to any friends you think may be interested.

Enjoy…
