4. Work through the Life Impact Guide. In order to get the maximum impact from Wisdom Trek, it is very important that you complete this 24-page questionnaire. It will take at least two hours, but is well worth the investment of time. As you work, focus on savoring each question prayerfully rather than trying to fill in every blank. Make a copy of the completed form and mail it to Dr. Jeff Myers, Myers Institute, P.O. Box 7, Dayton, TN 37321 so that it is received at least one week before Wisdom Trek. You may also e-mail it to jeff@myersinstitute.com or fax it to 423-570-1001.
