I would prefer to stay away from expressions that say start with "No..." and try to make them more positive.

I don't know why it posted my comment 4 times. I really only intended to post it once. Oops.

First of all, thank you to everyone for continuing to submit ideas. I'm getting inspired - and there are lot of clever ideas starting to come out. A few common notes - I prefer active words to passive. I also like playful and clever, while easy to understand. Short would be better than long. I know I'm being really picky but it's because I've wrestled with this for about a year and could never quite find a way to express it. I just found this site and I'm hopeful that the great brain trust that seems to be materializing here will do it. Please keep up the good work. Thank you again.

Wow! I am overwhelmed by the response here - which is prompting me to think about a little more that might help. The overall concept I want to promote is to let people know that this site will provide them HOPE that they have been lacking and TOOLS (although I hate that word) to accomplish what they've been MEANING TO for a long long long time. Keep in mind, the name of the site is even targeted at THIS TIME I MEAN IT - implying, they've tried again and again and again, and they've just about given up forever. They've decided to try it again. Their mood will probably be depressed, overwhelmed, ashamed, somewhat guilt ridden. I want something on the site that immediately grabs them and lets them know they CAN. And that this site (and me as their coach) is a good first step. Hope this helps. You guys (and gals) are really doing a good job. (I'll put some more personal comments on the postings shortly.) Thanks so much - I'm honored.

(I don't know why this site likes to repost my comments either. I only hit Submit once.)

As an FYI - tomorrow (3/14) I'm going to take some of the ones I have rated the highest (4 or better most likely), remove the names of the providers, and run them by several friends and an association with whom I'm involved to get some feedback. (I was hoping there was a way on this site for people to check in and vote like they do with logos - but there apparently is not.) I think this will help me really it narrow it down so when the end of the contest comes, I can pick someone. This is a brilliant group of wordsmiths and I'm honored that you working with me and putting up with my finickiness. Thank you.
