"Day 3- Meeting all am. Wanted to hibernate and missed opportunities. Calls to friends went to answering machines. No gift. Keep going."

"Day 2-Active listening. Consciously focused on the other person, listening and encouraging them. Opposite of my normal mode."

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
Over the past few years I have struggled- in bussiness and in life.  I have noticed more and more that I am very "me" centered.  a very wise friend asked me the hard question "Do I really care Nout other people?"
I realized I am not sure of this answer,  a truly sad thing to face up to. Last month I decided to reach out and just listen to someone without judgment and without inserting "me" into my mind chatter.  Today I rediscovered this book - and am taking action to implement the lessons.
What I'd most like to receive:
forgiveness for past thoughtlessness and self-centeredness
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
tv interview-I think Good Morning America
About me:
Recently closed my art and framing business of 16 years.  Having to start over and rediscover/reintent myself.

Hi Sally and Welcome to this site.  The people here are friendly, helpful and kind.  I hope you will let me know if you are having any problems or questions and if I can't help I will try and find someone who can.  There are many things to see and do starting with the Home page.  Lots of idea's for gifting, and for gifting outside the box.  None costly most free.  Then there are some downloads for things that can help you on your way and there are contests to enter and yes real people on the site win.  Then there are many groups within the site you can go over and decide or not to join.  It is always your choice.  I don't know you, but I know when I am down or sick or just aching all over it is hard to concentrate on others who you talk to during the day.  I hope you will be blessed many times over with your gifting.  Take Care and God Bless. deb
