Something New

Dedicated to Eric Most, who needs to be healed, quickly and completely, along with all those who need healing.

This week: a challenge, an announcement, and an inspiration.


The Challenge

At this time of year, most non-profits are holding out the hat. Get in that last-minute tax deduction! (who needs more tax deductions THIS year??)

If you are a long-term subscriber, you know that I have a different year-end message for you. I seek your wisdom, rather than you nickel.

Kindly take a few minutes to answer 10 questions - click here.

(all anonymous, so be brutally honest!)

If you are so inclined, this website rates non-profits. You can help us by clicking here and tell them what you think of JSL.

(If you need a reminder of the scope of JSL’s work, click here)

Thank you!


The Announcement

After some six months of labor, I am pleased to announce the launch of the fourth edition of the Art of Amazement. It has been completely revised and expanded, and now includes a study schedule and extremely useful index, not to mention a snazzy new cover. If you have one of the old editions, you’re probably going to enjoy the new. If you know someone who might enjoy it and have been wondering where to get a new copy, search no more. And if you’ve never read it....I, I just don’t know what to say!

Here’s your Amazon link:

The Inspiration

I know that you may not always take the time to watch at the amazing videos I post here, I know they can’t be printed out for sharing at the dinner table, but please make this one of the ones you look at. You will not be disappointed:



It’s so special it isn’t even on youtube.

You can tell the folks at your table about it and ask them this question: Why do you think people were so inspired by Alon Nir?
