Instant Challenge - Pavlina Style

Monday, February 19th, 2007

Steve Pavlina posted a fantastic challenge back around Thanksgiving of last year. I didn’t see it at the time, and I think that it’s a challenge worthy of propagation at any time the year, so I’m passing this on to you now.
INSTANT CHALLENGE:
First, go and read Steve’s post on giving as a source of […]

DoC ‘06 Review - Part 2

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

I’m not sure how (or even whether) placing emotional judgments of any kind on all of this will benefit me or my future goals, but I’m finding that those judgments come up for me anyway. So I may as well share them.
I am disappointed that I did not do everything I said I would […]

DoC ‘06 Review

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

Okay! Time to put a dent in my goals. The first one I listed in an earlier post was this:
Review my Declaration of Commitment for 2006
I had five listed goals for the year of 2006. Let’s see how I did.

Lose 107 pounds.

Over the course of the year, I went from weighing in at […]

Gratitude Journey

Saturday, November 11th, 2006

When I started the Joy Immersion venture, and dove into Assignment #4, I agreed to list ten things (total) per day for which I am grateful. I have found this exercise to be increasingly easy as time goes on both because my focus has changed, and because my life has been enriched. However, […]

No News Is Good News

Friday, October 6th, 2006

Last week, I posted some more information about Assignment #2. Seems there is another, like-minded person out there who shares the idea that watching, reading, and listening to the news is not such a great idea. What’s more, this guy did a really excellent job of explaining his reasoning behind the idea. In […]

News Fasting

Wednesday, September 27th, 2006

It’s so cool when I have an idea all by my lonesome, and then find out that some other person has had the same idea all by theirs. I believe it’s a sign of Universal Truth.
Such is the case with part of Assignment #2.
I believe one of the most toxic forms of […]
