The Gift of a Wish

What one wish, that you could have influence over, would you wish for this holiday season?

While we can wish for all kind of things, choose one that you have control or influence over coming true.

Richard Bach, the author of "Illusions" has said:

"You are never given a wish without the power to make it come true. You may have to work for it however."

What one wish could you commit to working toward this holiday season?

The Gift of Rest

While you are working hard on making your wish a reality, remember to rest.

Rest, when used in the correct way, does not slow you down. Rest gives your more energy to do the things you want to do.

It's good to occasionally pull out your mats and take a nap.

The Gift of Movement

This sounds so simple, yet it is so ignored:

We are designed to move.

And yet the modern lifestyle involves so little real movement. Get up in the morning and go to work. Come home, eat dinner, watch TV, go to bed, get up and do it again.

Design movement into your day.

The Gift of High Expectations

I see so many people set very low goals and then fail to live up to them.

The gift of higher expectations for yourself holds you accountable to be the best version of you that you can be.
