			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><strong><span style="color:#000000;">Try something fun</span></strong></em></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">You know your thoughts have a huge impact on your day to day life,right? Your thoughts can benefit you, or ….limit you. &#8230;Make you healthy, or ill. ….happy, or sad.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><strong><em><span style="color:#000000;">Thoughts are very powerful!</span></em></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">I&#8217;ve been reading a lot about positive affirmations, and how they can change your life. Healing diseases, boosting self-confidence, and removing subconscious blocks are just some of the benefits everyone can have by using positive affirmations daily.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The good news is &#8212;it&#8217;s easy and free. The only obligation will be to yourself, and the only thing it will cost is &#8212;just a few minutes of your time. Remember, thoughts are powerful.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Ok. So there is kind of a science to it. After all when something works someone else wants to know how and why it works.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color:#000000;">This is what you&#8217;re going to do:</span></strong></em></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">*Create a sentence, or two. Something positive, something simple. And, then type it ten times everyday, or say it out loud ten times everyday (typing it works great). Saying it out loud passionately in front of a mirror works better.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">If you can&#8217;t think of a positive affirmation right now the most famous one is <em>“ every day in every way I am getting better and better”</em></span></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#000000;">“every day in every way I am getting better and better”</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#000000;">“every day in every way I getting better and better”</span></em></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Do it everyday, ten times a day&#8230; and for best results stick with it for three months.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">And, try saying it or typing it in the second or third person also.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;">We all have our favorite quotes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Some quotes share insight, some quotes bring laughter, and some give you a glimpse of yourself.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Yes, indeed another living being throughout history has said something that makes complete sense, and has been quoted for saying it ever since.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">There are books filled with positive quotations. And, websites that will e-mail you daily quotes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">But, for now these are my favorite quotes:</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">1.)    &#8220;There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninteresting person.&#8221; &#8212; Gilbert K. Chesterton</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">2.)    &#8220;The crisis of today is the joke of tomorrow.&#8221; &#8212; H.G. Wells</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">3.)    &#8220;It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not deserve them.&#8221; &#8211;Mark Twain</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">4.)    &#8220;I hear much of people&#8217;s calling out to punish the guilty, but few are concerned to clear the innocent.&#8221; &#8212;Daniel Defoe</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">5.)    &#8220;Look for opportunity. You can&#8217;t wait for it to knock on the door&#8230;. You might not be home.&#8221; &#8212;Jinger Heath</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">6.)    &#8220;My feeling is that any day I am too busy to run is a day that I am too busy.&#8221; &#8211; - John Bryant</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">7.)    &#8220;The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.&#8221; &#8212;Albert Camus</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">8.)    &#8220;You have to believe in yourself.&#8221;&#8212;Sun Tzu</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">9.)    &#8220;A person is a fool to become a writer. His only compensation is absolute freedom.&#8221; &#8212; Roald Dahl</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">10.)	&#8220;They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.&#8221; &#8212; Edgar Allen Poe</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;">A lady walks into Tiffany&#8217;s. She browses around, spots a beautiful diamond bracelet and walks over to inspect it. As she bends over to look more closely she inadvertently breaks wind. Very embarrassed, she looks around nervously to see if anyone has noticed her little accident and prays that a sales person doesn&#8217;t popup right now. As she turns around, her worst nightmare materializes in the form of salesman standing right behind her.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Cool as a cucumber and displaying complete professionalism, the salesman greets the lady with, &#8216;Good day, Madam. How may we help you today? Very uncomfortably, but hoping that the salesman may just not have been there at the time of her little &#8216;accident&#8217;, she asks, &#8216;Sir, what is the price of this lovely bracelet?&#8217; He answers, &#8216;Madam, if you farted just looking at it, you&#8217;re going to sh** when I tell you the price.</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#000000;">The auditor said, &#8216;Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I&#8217;m not sure the IRS finds that believable.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">&#8216; I&#8217;m a great gambler, and I can prove it,&#8217; says Grandpa. &#8216;How about a demonstration?&#8217; The auditor thinks for a moment and said, &#8216;Okay. Go ahead.&#8217; Grandpa says, &#8216;I&#8217;ll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.&#8217;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The auditor thinks a moment and says, &#8216;It&#8217;s a bet.&#8217; Grandpa removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor&#8217;s jaw drops. Grandpa says, &#8216;Now, I&#8217;ll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye.&#8217;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Now the auditor can tell Grandpa isn&#8217;t blind, so he takes the bet. Grandpa removes his dentures and bites his good eye. The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with Grandpa&#8217;s attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">&#8216;Want to go double or nothing?&#8217; Grandpa asks &#8216;I&#8217;ll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between.&#8217; The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there&#8217;s no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Grandpa stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can&#8217;t make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty much urinates all over the auditor&#8217;s desk.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win. But Grandpa&#8217;s own attorney moans and puts his head in his hands. Are you okay?&#8217; the auditor asks. &#8216;Not really,&#8217; says the attorney. &#8216;This morning, when Grandpa told me he&#8217;d been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and pee all over your desk and that you&#8217;d be happy about it!&#8217;</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;">I’ve been making these two big circles on a large piece of paper…the size of a poster board, and inside one I write “in” and write the word “out” in the other. Then with these two circles I begin to write things I want to bring into my life in one and write things that I want out of my life inside the other circle, somehow this works subconsciously and also consciously because it&#8217;s a huge 2 foot by 3 foot reminder with all the things you want in and out of your life. I’ve also found it’s helpful to write the date when you made it and the date that you hope to accomplish these things. I think some things might just be will power and having a goal, this is helpful for getting addictions out of your life, and some things take more planning like a vacation. Of all the things I’ve written that I wanted to come into my life… I attract them easily, all the things I want out of my life…I free myself of…until about three months ago I wrote that I would like to be able to run three miles in thirty minutes or less and run thirty miles or more per month, hopefully once I reached those goals I could enter my first 5k race…so I added running to my exercise routine and I’m running three times a week now, in March I covered 12.8 miles, in April I covered a distance of 22 miles, I’m getting closer although I still don’t run three miles straight, I am doing 2 miles in 22 minutes with my warm up and cool down walk. I found mapmyrun.com and it has this really cool mapping tool that helps you plan out routes and shows your exact distance along with other runs in your area that people have mapped… along with some great advice about food for energy, stretching, and even running groups you could join. Those circles I was telling you about are a fantastic tool that you can use to show yourself what you want and what you don’t want…instead of driving yourself in circles internally. And I’m going to achieve this running goal also… just so you know.</span></p>
