How difficult is it to add a few extra outlets?
In my garage there is only one outlet. I want to add another one or two, but on the opposite wall. Is it just as simple as finding a power source and mounting some conduit to the wall?

No, you'll have to put wires in the conduit Sorry, couldn't help myself. You can go the conduit route, but there are prettier ways to do it. Fill us in on your garage. Is there a subpanel? How is the garage receiving its power? Is it attached to the house? Is there a ceiling and are there wall coverings? Do you have access above the garage?

The wall I want the outlets is block and no power source of any kind. There is a ceiling light. Drywalled ceiling with an access door, just have not made up to see what kind of room i have.

A conduit sleeve coming down the block wall may be the easiest for you. You would need to find a source of power. If it were me I would try to run a new circuit. If you provide some of the details Larry asked about we can help with your plan.
Note, the receptacles will need GFI protection in the garage.
