Living Longer??
Did you know that finding deeper meaning in the everyday, could help us live longer!! It was found that in a study of those that had a higher purpose in life were about half as likely to die than those who had little sense of purpose!!! SOO!!!
Ask yourself what you most want from life right now.... whether it's a change in career or more connection with others. We need to decide what will bring us joy and do something about it within the next 5 years! Make that our goal!
Make a list.. of 3 or 4 actions we can take now to work toward our goals, such as VOLUNTEERING!!, take a class, go back to work, learn a new exercise, get involved in the community!
Commit to atleast 1 thing on our list for atleast 1 month! "The key is to take active steps toward achieving that vision we have set for ourself" and then STICK TO IT!

Secrets To Giving
*Start with Gratitude-Write down what you're most thankful for and make a point to share aleast one item on your list!
*Keep it Simple-Small gestures often make the biggest impact. Smile at a stranger, offer a coworker a sincere compliment, or buy someone lunch for no reason.
*Give up expectations-Let go of judgments about how your gift will be put to use. Once you've given it, your gift will take care of itself!
*Receive graciously-Giving without receiving will deplete your energy. Remember to be receptive to what others are eager to share!
*Wing it- Resist the urge to plan all gifts in one sitting. Stay open to the gift gifting opportunities that occur naturally throughout any given day! Start Now for next year!
*Challenge Yourself-What are you hestitant to give? Your Time? Unconditonal love? Ask yourself. Why? and try to let those hang up go!
