Challenge #9 Sat, July 9, 2011
Feeling victorious over the smallest of obstacles is a wonderful awareness that creates a chemical change in our brains and bodies and radiates outwards through our energy systems. Having a feeling of winning in anything makes our outlook inside and out towards everything much better, more positive and certainly helps us to look forward to more "wins" everyday. I challenge you to find a victory or win today. Once you recognize it, give thanks for it and jot the specifics down in your journal. Notice how you will be begin to look forward to finding at least one in your day and how much more positive you will feel...

Challenge #10 Sun, July 10, 2011
Sundays are traditionally the day of rest, prayer, time with family, and reflection. Allowing the time to be by yourself for just 30 minutes daily uninterrupted can be a wonderful way to go in a little deeper and reflect upon how you view yourself and perhaps consider how others perceive you. Consider what immediately begins to come into your mind's eye or consciousness when you do take time. Do you feel as though you may be missing out on life, are you just getting by with the mechanics of the day to day actions you need to go through. Do you feel stuck in any way? Are you expressing yourself clearly to reflect what your mind and emotions might want to verbalize to others? Are there changes that you would like to make for yourself? Are there goals to start setting? I challenge you to take 15-30 undisrupted minutes, anytime during this day to observe and reflect upon what starts to take shape in your mind, and focus on what you want to do about it....
