Motivation for February

Here's some quotes just for you....Take one and own and make it yours...it will only cost you about 10 minutes of reading and 3 minutes for debating....

"Every morning you are handed 24 golden hours. They are one of the few things in this world that you get free of charge.

If you had all the money in the world, you couldn't buy an extra hour. What will you do with this priceless treasure?" Author Unknown

"I recommend you to take care of the minutes, for the hours will take care of themselves." Lord Chesterfield

"If there was ever a time to dare, to make a difference, to embark on something worth doing, IT IS NOW." Author Unknown

"Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered for they are gone forever." Horace Mann

"Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein." H. Jackson Brown

Time and words can't be recalled, even if it was only yesterday." Yiddish Proverb

"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive -- to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love." Marcus Aurelius

"If you want to make good use of your time, you've got to know what's most important and then give it all you've got." Lee Iacocca

Tasks for February...

So I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed in the project. I've been feeling a little depressed about it actually. Here's why...

I came up with this idea to allow people to enjoy life in a whole new way, by doing different things for free. I never thought this would be the outcome. I spent two weeks typing the packet that I gave you. Then I spent roughly $200 to copy and mail to about 75 people. I heard from less than 10. My friend Roz and I came up with a new phrase...Life is nothing I expected, but everything I wanted. I don't think this applies to this situation...I know people are busy, but goshly so am I. I know it probably felt too broad or too much or whatever...Ludacris says a line in his new song...people are too picky these days...Too tall, too short, too fat, too skinny, Have a couple of drinks and quit discriminating. Nothing has ever been more true. People complain all day long about everything and anything. Even if nothing bad has happened in their life they complain.

This month...I'm giving up complaining. It doesn't do any body any good and I need all the room for positive words and thoughts. I'm sorry if I've overwhelmed you with something that wasn't what you were ready for, but this is something I'm passionate about. I want people to realize that God wants us to be happy and have peace. We can't do that if we are too busy...

In the bathroom at my school, there's a poster on the door as you face the toilet and it says something about taking the time to listen and breathe and it gives me a chance to remember that I'm here for God's Purpose and He guides me through each and every event.

So this month...LOVE YOURSELF! TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF...write about what you want.
Create your I hate list and then you'll be able to free yourself from feeling guilty about that part of yourself. It's okay to have bad habits or to dislike your faults as long as you can accept them.

Here's a preview into my I hate list...
12. I hate to change the toilet paper roll.
15. I hate the fact that people don't return communication immediately...phone call, email, text message...*I'm guilty too*
5. I hate lighters...

Here's a preview into my I love list...
3. I love the sunshine.
6. I think movie poster designers are genius.
18. The color baby blue and yellow in any combination.
28. I love the sound of the keyboarding tapping under my fingers..*it goes back to my days at LHS taking keyboarding*
