Happy Day 14 everyone!
I had a very inspiring day yesterday corresponding with a number of you in person and over e-mail. It is a gift to me. I have also enjoyed going back and looking at all of the blog posts and reading the comments. Did you know that there are 28 haiku poems posted? Go check them out. I love hearing your RAK stories – but we need more. If you haven’t had the chance to read Chris’ story about a “RAK stealer” – it is priceless. I was laughing out loud like a crazy person…which I am obviously am. You all don’t give yourself credit for the depth of your own insights – and how they might bless others. Don’t you realize that the inspiration you receive might not you just be for you alone? Well…
Day 14: 3 Questions!
Your assignment for today is to reflect on the last week – or the past two weeks. Take some quiet listening and reflection time and ask yourself these three questions:
1) What has been your biggest challenge thus far?
2) What have you been most inspired by?
3) What are you grateful for from the first two weeks?
Make the time – take your time – what did you hear?
Conference Call: Okay, I have scheduled the conference call for Monday night at 9pm, ET. The call is free, you just pay for your own phone call based on your individual phone plan. Here is the call-in number and pin number:
Call-in number: 1-940-287-4000
Pin number: 989241
The call will be as long as it needs to be. My plan is to discuss your insights based on the three questions – but I am open to going whichever direction the call needs to go.
One rule: I ask that we keep the call to sharing and questioning – but don’t feel the need to correct or answer other peoples insights. Please resist any urge to want to solve someone’s question. Let’s make sure the call is devoid of any “you should” answers.
Not Knowing: In case you missed it, in “Peaceful Warrior,” Socrates describes to Dan the first rule of a warrior, “Not Knowing.” I had to laugh when I thought about that in regard to the 30 Days tagline, “For those who don’t NO.”
Have a great Day 14 everyone! YES!!!!!!!!

1) What has been your biggest challenge thus far?
Saying YES to taking time each day for the assignments!
2) What have you been most inspired by?
The 3-day exercise sequence on fear. That has, hands down, been the most impactful for me and really inspired a lot of self reflection, letting go of stories and moving into a freer space. It's been super powerful for me and has been at the forefront of my thoughts since, allowing me to recognize more fears, face them and let go. Ahhh, freedom from fear is amazing.
3) What are you grateful for from the first two weeks?
I'm grateful for so many things!! For the community that is "together" in YES, for the encouragement to step into awareness each day, seeing the usual with fresh eyes. And mostly, I'm so very grateful for consciously stepping into YES, overcoming the challenge of finding the time to do each day's assignment and enjoying the personal growth and stretching. It's been such a great way to start 2012!
Amen!
