iPad & Apps as tools for personal development-SoundPrism

Are you interested in tools to help you in your life journey? I certainly am and think I may have found one of the best and most versatile yet-the iPad 2 (and its 1000s of Apps). I use it almost more than my computer now for so many things, including learning, writing, communication, productivity, creativity, fun, personal journalling, relaxation, personal development and growth.

The possibilities of this tool and its applications/programs are almost endless.
I will upload a screenshot of my iPad and apps soon to give you an idea.


An Example: iPad for learning, fun and distraction

Being a musician, or used to be(!), I have been having fun distracting myself from recent 'dramas' in life through personal development and improving my skills, hobbies and 'fun factor' by exploring music apps on the iPad 2 (yes, naughty me, I finally decided to get one and I highly recommend it)).

I 'may'setup an iPad/iPhone apps review blog, including relevant articles here (as there are 1000s of apps in multiple categories),in addition to a 'musical journey' site (dreams/goals in my own process of personal development which has broadened substantially!).

However, for now, I am just testing the Soundprism App and discovered that I could embed an intro video directly into my blog here!

Wow, I'm loving this iPad even more!

So if you're interested in music, or the iPad/iPhone and how it can possibly ease your life, this is just a start - the video should show up below (fingers crossed). This blog post is also my first test at using the iPad as a productivity tool, which is fun too.

iPad, music, distraction, learning and productivity .... Here we come! :-)

SoundPrism iPad/iPhone App Quick Tour (just one example of 1000s of apps, creative, learning, personal development, health and more!)



You can find out more about this music app at www.soundprism.com - I have quite a few music, writing, productivity and other great apps (there are also some fantastic personal diary/journalling apps)

I will return soon with other life and resource updates (eg. involvements in improv theatre, improving health, new 'life' slightly 'colored' by the 'storms of life', physical assault by my 'crazy neighbor', losing eye sight again, inner fears, the 'future' and that 'chatterbox', sadness from loss of so many people in my life to death) and so much more ...

... and how I keep on going by holding on to hope, by increasing self awareness, learning and inner growth...Always learning and reflecting. It's not easy, I certainly don't have all the solutions, but the most important thing is to never give up, no matter how bad life may seem at times, day by day, up, down - life and happiness fluctuates no matter who we are, or our life situation, but I digress ...... So much to say and catchup!

Anyway, I hope you all had a wonderful Xmas and that life is treating you well, and if it's not, remember, always keep the hope going and be kind with yourself. Be your own best friend, not your enemy. I'm sure many of you beat yourself up enough, I know I do, although I'm learning to change that. As if we don't have enough to deal with in life!

Life can change so quickly so don't fear. Live in the moment, for it is only the 'now' that we can deal with and not an imaginary future, often dominated by fear (False Evidence Appearing Real)

For me, here, now, I'm coping through fun and distraction with my new 'toy/tool'... some time out to 'regroup' (hence my 'ad hoc' post here!) ;)

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE iPAD/OTHER TOOLS?

- Do you have an iPad/iPhone or similar? Do you want one? Do you want to know how it can actually help in life? ... If you have one, how do you use it to improve life productivity,and/or learning and self-improvement, or even just for fun (life distraction/peace)

I would love to know how you use it, plan to, or hope/wish to! :)

Or - what other tools do you use and recommend for us all?

Until next time,
Meg

Be kind

PS THANK YOU ALL for so many wonderful comments! You inspire me and I hope to continue writing more often, to share and to learn how we all feel and grow, the ups and downs and how we can keep going. Nobody's life is perfect, we all have our fears. Hope, awareness and knowing that we are not alone, can help so much.
