    <description>What do you say when you talk to yourself? Do you praise yourself when you make a mistake or call yourself stupid? When you look in the mirror, do you see beauty or some flaw that needs to be fixed?

Often when we talk to ourselves we blend in facts with opinion. For instance, if you are overweight (whatever that means) you may say that &quot;I am fat and can't lose this weight&quot;. It may be true that you are fat but your opinion that you can't lose the weight.

I had an issue with biting my nails sometimes to the point of bleeding usually when I am tired. Then one day, I decided that I would say when the urge hit me to bite, &quot;I have well-manicured finger nails&quot;. It didn't take immediately but eventually it did.

It's now your turn. Take 15 minutes or 900 seconds and look in the mirror. Notice if any negative thoughts come through. Seperate fact from opinion and change that negative thought to what you'd like to see. Be conscious of what you say to yourself. You will eventually act it out to prove that you were right.

That's it. You now have 85,500 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>One constant in the world today is balance. Look around you and you will see that we have as much abundance as we have lack in the world. There are people who are gluttonous and those that are starving; happy and sad; feast and famine. We have drought and floods. It all exists in perfection. 

Dis-ease is your body's way of telling you that you are out of balance. The body is perfectly designed for balance. When it comes to fitness, you need as much rest as you do exercise. And, by all means,play as much as you work.

Take 30 minutes or 1800 seconds to discover where you are out of balance and begin to look for ways to fix it. How do you fix it? Well, ask yourself and wait for the answer.

Ok, you now have 84,600 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>What is truth?

If I was to ask you your age could you beyond a shadow of doubt tell me? Absolutely not! What you would tell me is how old someone told you you are.

Think about this, practically all you know and all you hold true was told to you by someone else. What if they were wrong? What if you were awakened tomorrow morning to find out that what you believe to be &quot;true&quot; either culturally, religiously, or environmentally have been falsehoods, myths, or fairytales?

It is time you start discovering you. Take 15 minutes or 900 seconds to ponder why you do the things you do.

Beyond the seven laws of the universe (http://www.define-your-purpose-in-life.com/golden_rules.html), truth is fluid and personal. What may be true for you may not be true for others. You will, however, experience what you believe to be true for you. If you are not experiencing life the way you wish, you may have to simply change your mind.

Ok, that's it. You now have 85,500 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today is goal check day. It's hard to believe that already the year is half over. How are your January goals going?

Take 1 hour or 3600 seconds and go over your list. If you have made no headway, it's not too late to do something about it now. Prove to yourself that you are a go-getter. Take something easy from your list and do it now. Don't plan to do, do it now. It matters not what that is. If you planned on dieting, eat a salad for lunch. Convince your mind that you are in charge and that things will be different.

Take that walk, learn that new skill, just do something today. You will be glad you did.

By the way, I will be communicating with you more than I have in the past. You see, I too have some work to do.

So go ahead, get to it. You now have 82,800 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <title>May 7, It's important to protect your family</title>
    <link>http://www.define-your-purpose-in-life.com/life-blog.html#Its-important-to-protect-your-family</link>
    <description>You've probably heard about &quot;Oprah's Book Club.&quot; This is where she recommends books she likes.

Well, there was a book released today that's NOT on Oprah's book
club list...but that's only because she doesn't know about it...yet!

But, even more important than Oprah knowing about this book is that
YOU know about it...and own it.

It's called, &quot;Wear Clean Underwear: A Fast, Fun, Friendly -
and  Essential - Guide to Legal Planning for Busy Parents&quot; and it's
written by California lawyer and mom, Alexis Martin Neely.

 http://wearcleanunderwearbook.com/howard

For less than $16, you will not only get the straight information on
everything you need to know to legally plan for the care of your kids
and your money, but you will also get over $3000 worth of bonus gifts
that Alexis has put together for you.  But, to get the bonuses, you've
got to buy the book TODAY!

And, don't think this book is going to be depressing, hard to read or
full of legal jargon.  It's just the opposite!

As you can tell from the title, Alexis has made this topic entertaining,
interesting and, yes, even a little bit fun.

By using an easy to read story-based format, Alexis walks you through
three stories that guide you to all the right answers for your family.

Her book is a fast read and when you are done, you will know the exact
next steps on what you need to do to make life as easy as possible for the
people you love most if you were in an accident.

By the end, you will know exactly how easy it can be to legally plan for
your family and she even gives you tons of free resources to get you
started or fix what you've already got in place.

 http://wearcleanunderwearbook.com/howard

This is a book you must read even if you think you've gotten everything
taken care of.

Alexis discovered that of the 30 of parents who have taken action to
legally plan for their kids and their money, most have made at least
1 of 6 common mistakes.

So, whether you've done legal planning or not, get a head start on Oprah
and order

&quot;Wear Clean Underwear: A Fast, Fun, Friendly - and  Essential - Guide to Legal
Planning for Busy Parents&quot; right NOW by going to:

 http://wearcleanunderwearbook.com/howard

You and your family will thank me for years to come!

All my very best,

J. Kyle Howard

bonuses, you must order your book TODAY. Don't miss out do it NOW!

    <description>Today, like most days, I am going to challenge you. I am going to challenge you to reach deep within yourself and do something that you've probably not done in a long while.

The path of least resistance has become the norm. We too easily accept mediocre results.

I want you to tap into your &quot;inner musician&quot;. Inside of you is one, but beautiful note. The world is composed of this great orchestra and it's time for you to do a solo. You know that you have this one beautiful note inside that's just dying to get out. Is it a poem or a song? Do you save a life or make life a little easier for someone else? Is it your smile, touch, or soothing voice? Could it be a hug to someone who needs it? Do you finally express that great idea you've been dreaming of? You know that you have been holding back. We, the audience are anticipating the sound that will come from you. Take 15 minutes or 900 seconds to figure it out and show someone what that is. 

What's special about you? What sound will you make when you decide to let it out.

That's it, you now have 85,500 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Ok, so maybe I was a bit rough last time. I don't apologize. It's time to take the gloves off and dish out some tough love. That's right, I said love. Not the mushy, violin playing, rosey kind of love but that pick you up by the shoulders and punch you in the mouth kind of love. We've gotten too comfortable, too relaxed, and a tad too sensitive. I am that voice calling out in the wilderness for you to listen to your innerself.

It's already mid-April, 4 1/2 months into the year. Where are you? What have you accomplished from your list of resolutions made in January? What have you accomplished from your to-do list from last week?

It's time to blow the dust off and do something with them, anything but try to ignore what we promised ourselves  we'd do. It's become too easy to lie to ourselves. No more excuses.

That's it, take 20 minutes or 1200 seconds and grab your to do list and do something on it. Let the momentum take you forward to complete them all. I'll be checking. You now have 85,200 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>In today's society, it has become much easier for us to lie to ourselves. We have become the generation of excuse makers. We look at the economy now and blame everyone but ourselves for our lack of discipline in all matters concerning finances. We buy houses we cannot afford and credit cards we cannot pay. For those who work and have not updated their skills with the changing economy, we have an excuse for that as well.

We have enjoyed a period of prosperity whereby everything we collectively touched turned to gold. But as the saying goes, &quot;what goes up, must come down&quot;. Here we are America standing out in the world with our pants around our ankles wondering what happened. We happened, and we have to fix it.

There are two laws I want you to pay attention to. One is &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.define-your-purpose-in-life.com/rhythm.html&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;the law of rhythm&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and the other is &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.define-your-purpose-in-life.com/causeandeffect.html&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;the law of cause &amp; effect&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

Take one hour or 3600 seconds to gain an understanding of what's going on behind the scenes. I know it's been awhile but you now have 82,800 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today I want you to get in touch with your &quot;inner genius&quot;. The mind is a wonderful tool when used correctly. It can enhance as well as destroy your life. It is primarily responsible for all that you are or ever will be.

Of course there are more details available on this site that gives you ways to properly use this tool. But, for now, take 1 hour (3600 seconds)and learn something new. It doesn't matter what it is. It could be as large as the universe or as small as the calories in a licked stamp (.26 of a calorie btw).

Why do I know that? I checked, curious you see, and fun at parties. Anyway, go do some research. Don't accept something as true without investigating it yourself. Have fun, stretch your mind.

    <description>It's time you get in touch with your &quot;inner child&quot;. You have been given a gift. This gift is a one time offer this year so choose carefully how you are going to use it.

What is it? Drumroll please... I'll give you a hint. It only comes around once every four years. That's right, the gift that you've been given is an additional 24 hours to do with as you please.

Today, take 30 minutes (1800 seconds) and decide what you are going to do.

Buy you significant other the most perfect rose. Look them in the eye and explain how blessed you are to be in their presence.

Go somewhere and do some thing that you've been putting off doing.

Write that poem or song.

Read your child a fascinating story.

Go on a discovery of something new.

In other words take the courage necessary to shake things up a bit in your life. It doesn't have to be great, although greatness is the process of a few small steps.

That's it. Do it now and enjoy your extra day. You now have 85,600 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today you are going to get in touch with your &quot;inner Michael Jordan&quot;. No we are not going to become basketball stars; however, Michael Jordan is considered the absolute best basketball player ever. And you are going to choose something that you will be recognized as being the absolute best at. 

Take one hour (3600 seconds) and decide what that one thing is and map it out. 

The time you assign to accomplish this is going to be open-ended. In other words, you get to choose out of your alotted daily hours just how much time to use in the accomplishment of your stated goal.

There exist a hypothesis that it takes 2000 hours to become an expert at anything (within reason of course). We all know that the more we do a thing the better at it we become.

Here's how you are going to soar far and above others this year. Pick something that you have been trying to or wanting to achieve. It could be your own business or working for someone else. Imagine how it would feel to be considered the absolute, hands-down, best at it. Mark off 2000 hours and record your time spent accordingly.

Let me know how it turns out. OK, stop staring at the screen and get moving. You now have 82,800 seconds to do with as you please.

    <description>How do you clear out your mind? It's simple and easy.

Today we are going to unleash your inner &quot;Mr. Clean&quot;. Take 60 minutes (3600 seconds)to locate an area in your environment that's a bit cluttered with stuff. Roll up your sleeves and clean it up. Quite often our environment represents our inner environment. By cleaning up the outer, you will be cleaning and clearing the inner. Try it.

Ok. Get you vacuum, mop, and bucket and get busy. You now have 50,400 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Can you turn the other cheek? What exactly does that mean? If someone slaps you on one side of your face, do you give them the opportunity to slap the other side? I don't think so nor do I think that's the meaning.

To turn the other cheek simply means to respond to stimulus in a different manner than you normally would.

Your task for today is to take a situation that would normally aggravate you. Now as you feel that anger starting to well up inside of you take 10 seconds before responding. While you are counting down think about the best response that's not based on anger.

Learning to control yourself and not allowing automatic responses to stimulus will allow you to take charge of any situation.

Take 10 minutes (600 seconds)and read the article called abundance at www.define-your-purpose-in-life.com/abundance.html 

It's a good read on the subject. Enjoy

    <description>Today is the day we take your inner couch potato for a ride of discovery.

Take 60 minutes (3600 seconds), grab some popcorn, a cool beverage or hot if you like, grab the remote and tune into a learning channel. It could be History, Discovery, PBS. It matters not what's on. What matters is that it is something that you've never seen.

Over the years, television has gotten a bad rap. This tool if used properly will allow you to expand your mind. A mind that once expanded can no longer return to its original size. Besides, you will be tuning in anyway, might as well make it an adventure.

Why are you still here? Go, watch the tube, I'll chat with you later.

    <description>Today we are going to get in touch with out inner giant. Take 15 minutes (900 seconds)to identify a problem that you would normally shrink away from. It could be creditors, friends, family, etc. 

Instead of shrinking we are going to grow to be much larger than the problem. Take charge, confront those issues that are staring you in the face by coming up with workable solutions. It's just stuff and stuff is tiny which is why it's called stuff.

You are bigger than your problems. Be the giant. Ok, stretch, grow, and get moving. You now have 83,700 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Are you good at what you do? On a scale of 1-10 (1 being lowest), how would you rate yourself?

Take 10 minutes (600 seconds) to determine the one thing that you are best at. Got it, now go and tell anyone who is willing to listen.

We tend to promote any and everything but ourselves. You uniquely qualified to do that one thing that you do but unless you tell someone, how will you get the chance. Someone needs your unique gift, someone's very existence may depend upon your unique gift. Help them find you.

Head spinning? Good, now get going :-)

    <description>Today is the day that you are going to experience your true greatness. Today we are going to let out your inner warrior. Take 5 minutes (300 seconds)to read and ponder the words of Marianne Williamson:

&quot;You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Don't just scan this, read it and contemplate these words. Let your greatness shine and be a beacon for others.

OK, why are you still here? Get going. You now have 84,300 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today I want you to get in touch with your inner Huna (ancient Hawaiian philosophy). Take 10 minutes (600 seconds)to drive around, flip through magazines, or read about successful people. As you take on this task, whatever you see that you like, bless it and the people involved.

In order to rid yourself of any negative attitudes about abundance and prosperity, you need to practice blessing  those things that you desire.

That's it. Get to it. You now have 84,000 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today I want you to enjoy the gift of laughter. Sure I could ask you to watch a cartoon or a comedy but that would be too easy.

Take 10 minutes (600 seconds) and remember something that either made you angry or sad. Take that memory and find something funny about that situation.

We have the power to choose how we will respond in every situation. Unfortunately, we tend to operate on automatic. There is a space between stimulus and reaction. It is that space where our power to respond lies.

So go ahead, have a hearty laugh at yourself. You now have 84,000 seconds to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>There was a story in the bible about a rich man who was asked to give away all he had in order to follow Jesus. He refused of course because he was attached to his possessions.

Today I want you to experience true abundance and detachment from objects. Take 5 minutes (300 seconds) and choose something that you &quot;own&quot; to give away. Don't think too much about it. Don't give away something that you didn't want anymore.

Take what you've chosen and give it to Goodwill or some other charitable organization.

Here are some benefits: 

1. When you give something away, it opens the way to receive more.

2. You free yourself from an attachment

3. You are allowing someone else to receive a benefit as you did. The Golden Rule at its best.

I know this may seem trivial. We are building a tool box so that you can live the life you truly desire.

OK, get to it. You now have 84,300 seconds left to do with as you please</description>

    <description>Today we are going to experience compassion. I would like you to take 1 hour (3600 seconds) and buy one rose for someone special.

Anyone can get a dozen roses on special occasions. You are giving that special someone one special rose just because of who they are.

Believe me when I tell you, this will pay off bigtime :-)

Alrighty, get moving. You now have 82,800 seconds left to do with as you see fit.</description>

    <description>Today we are going to start the habit of honoring our commitments. Take 1 hour (3600 seconds), write down one thing that you've been putting off, and complete it today.

Whenever we give our word even to ourselves that we are going to do something and for whatever reason we don't accomplish it; we start a build up within our minds that we don't honor ourselves enough to follow through with what we say. You will soon notice that others will develop that perception about you.

Your outer world will always reflect your inner world.

That's it. Get busy doing something. You now have 82,800 seconds left to do with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today we are building esteem and identifying the truth as to who we are. When asked who we are, we usually define outselves by what we do and that is by far the worst definition of ourselves that we give.

So here it is, take 5 minutes (300 seconds), get in front of a mirror, place your hand on your heart, and repeat after me: I am whole, I am perfect, I am strong, I am powerful, I am loving, I am harmonious, and I am happy.

As you utter the &quot;I am's&quot;, pay close attention to the feeling and thoughts that arise. Does your mind agree with what you are saying or not?

If you find it difficult to believe what you are saying, then you have discovered an obstacle in your thoughts that is preventing you from living the life you desire. This is where declaration of the above statements come in. You will need to do this everytime you are in front of a mirror.

Most people have a hard time believing that they are perfect. How can you be any other way?

There you have it. Find that mirror, look yourself in the eye and tell it like it is. You now have 86,100 seconds to with as you please.</description>

    <description>Today will probably be the hardest task that I've challenged you with. Ready? I want you to take a full 8 hours today (28,800 seconds)and commit to making no complaints. That's right no complaining, no whining, no bitching, no pity parties and not just out loud but in your head as well for 8 whole hours. Can you do it?

Look, every moment you are either attracting success or failure in your life. Complaining is a surefire way of attracting failure as it demonstrates a lack of personal power. If everything was going your way there would be no need to complain.

Be careful, choose your words wisely, and enjoy your success today.

OK, that's it. Up to the challenge? Guard your tongue. You now have 57,600 seconds left to do as you please.</description>

    <description>Today is the day you experience true forgiveness. I want you to take 10 minutes (600 seconds)to jot down the name of someone who wronged you and write a short note of forgiveness. You don't have to do anything with it. You may in fact throw it away but truly forgive this person.

Not only clearing the record of those who have wronged you and not holding a grudge but also forgiving yourself for any past mistakes.

    <description>Happy New Year! Today or sometime this weekend, I want you to take 4 hours (14,400 seconds) and do absolutely nothing. Get in touch with your inner couch potato minus the tv. No interruptions, just you and some quiet--- bedtime does not count. This is active relaxation.

Ok you now have 72,400 seconds left to do with as you please. Remember doing nothing is an activity.</description>

    <description>Today I want you to experience being selfish. There exist a fine line between being selfish and self-centered. We've been taught that selfishness is a bad thing. I am stating right now that it is not. Being selfish means to take care of oneself. So your marching orders for today is to take the time for yourself, yet be conscious of others. You are of no good to anyone else until you are good to yourself.

So here's what I want you to do, take 60 minutes (3600 seconds) and do something romantic, loving, adventurous for yourself. Here a  few ideas:
1. Take yourself out for a romantic candlelit dinner.
2. Go to that spa you've been putting off.
3. How about a casual dinner and a movie alone?
4. Buy yourself something special
5. When was the last time you really felt loved? Try and recreate the experience

You get the picture. It's time for you to do you. Get going. One more thing, I would love to know what you did with your hour. How about dropping me a line on the feedback form and I will post up some of the creative ideas to help others.

Alright, you now have 82,800 seconds left to do with as you please</description>
