25 Day Challenge

No Worry | Day 1
When we worry, we make problems bigger than what they really are. Instead of worrying, accept whatever you have no control over, prepare wherever you can and choose happiness instead of worry!

Slow Down, Relax | Day 2
Stress may appear to get things done in the short-term but in the long term it leads to burnout. When you learn to slow down, you discover how easy it is to be relaxed whilst on the go!

The Solution Focus | Day 3
Making things positive doesn’t mean a sunny outlook; it means making the choice to see problems as opportunities. Every problem and difficult situation is embedded with a solution - the adventure lies in finding the solution.

From Expectations to Acceptance | Day 4
Getting on with people is tough, especially when they don’t fulfill your expectations! Instead, if you accept people the way they are without expecting them to be something they’re not, you end up less disappointed and frustrated.

Fear Nothing | Day 5
You already have the courage to “Face, Explore, Accept and Respond” to fear. All you have to do is move beyond inertia and discover your true potential. Then, courage will enable you take action in spite of fear.

Time Management | Day 6
Whilst time cant be controlled, you can manage yourself. When you begin to work smarter, not harder, and do the right things better, you'll begin to make the most and get the best out of your time.

Pack Up Your Thoughts | Day 7
What are you choosing to hold onto in your mind? You can always pack-up all the unnecessary and negative thoughts and feelings in your mind. Pack away and put it out of your mind. You then have space to create something new and positive.

Go with the Flow | Day 8
Sometimes we just have to be wise enough to go with the flow. We have to put our trust in life and let the current carry us. That doesn’t mean we should take our focus off where we’re going.

Finding Clarity | Day 9
Clarity is more than knowing whether you should choose (a) over (b). Clarity happens when you turn your mind within and allow it to be still. In stillness, there’s clarity - you know exactly what it is that you have to do.

No Complaining Zone | Day 10
If you approach life complaining about what’s missing then you’ll be dissatisfied. Satisfaction comes from knowing that things can always be improved but at the same time appreciating what is right in your life, right now.

Concentration Ability | Day 11
When you want to do something sincerely and are decisive about it; the power of concentration becomes available to you. Concentration allows you to achieve more in less time and respond to situations in a more effective way.

Overcoming Anger | Day 12
Anger can be a by-product of our way of thinking, rather than it being caused by a person or an event. You can either hold on to your anger or, you can calm down and let go. Choose to be calm and you’ll find it easier to forgive and move on.

Add fun to your life | Day13
Waking up energised and excited about tackling challenges is a sign that you have the ‘fun factor’ in your life. When you’re having ‘fun’, you’re curious enough to actively explore life. And then, nothing is impossible or off limits.

Will Power | Day 14
If you believe ‘you can’ and have the strong desire to do so, then despite setbacks, it’s your will power that makes you ‘try, try, try again’. Both ‘will’ and ‘power’ are released when you go from ‘will do’ to ‘doing things willingly’.

Patience | Day 15
Patience is your willingness to let time and life move forward at their own pace, without losing sight of your destination. When there’s no rush, no hurry, out goes anxiety, in comes peace of mind.

Co-operation | Day 16
To be co-operative means to have a quiet eye for what is needed and contribute accordingly. To be a support at the right time, in the right place.

Positive Self Talk | Day 17
Your self-esteem comes down to the way you talk to yourself. Your inner critic is that little voice that nags you and sabotages your efforts. Change your inner critic to an inner coach and encourage yourself to keep trying even when you’re not 100% successful!

Beat Tiredness | Day 18
Being tired isn’t just about doing too much; it’s also about being devoid of motivation. Beat tiredness and work up your motivation to get things done and make things happen with spirit and gusto.

Knowing When Not To | Day 19
Action is important but so is inaction. To act appropriately and with consideration, you have to use your power of discernment. Knowing when to and when not to: say something; dig your heels in; hold your ground; or make a decision!

Resilience | Day 20
Resilience is your personal power, your inner strength that allows you to rise above difficult circumstances, and bounce back stronger than before the challenge! With such vitality, nothing can bring you down, or de-stabilise you.

With or Without Ego | Day 21
With ego, you lash out when someone insults, disagrees or criticises you. Without ego, you’re able to accept your flaws without compromising your self worth.

On Making Mistakes | Day22
Mistakes matter. How you recover from them matters even more. The best way to handle a mistake is to learn from the mistake. Then you’ll not repeat it nor ever be paralysed by the fear of making another mistake.

On Making Mistakes | Day 23
Mistakes matter. How you recover from them matters even more. The best way to handle a mistake is to learn from the mistake. Then you’ll not repeat it nor ever be paralysed by the fear of making another mistake.

Abundance | Day 24
Abundance is to see that there are endless possibilities before us. And at the same time, still see an incredibly rich existence right where we are. It is a feeling of gratitude for everything and everyone we have in our life.

Yes / No – Be Assertive | Day 23
Assertiveness is the ability to express your thoughts and feelings honestly and respectfully without undue anxiety. Communicating confidently does not happen magically but when you do it, it gives you the freedom to be yourself.

Being Peace | Day 25
You don’t need to search for peace; you are a being of peace. Any time, any place, you can step back from your thoughts and emotions. Just withdraw into your inner being, a place of total peace and just be.

Thought For Days

Peaceful Mind
Fill your mind with peace and good feelings and your mind will give that experience in return. Whatever you are experiencing in your mind now is what you put there earlier on.

Determination and Patience
Determination is the strength that will enable you to pass the barrier of useless thoughts in order to create positive thoughts and to be successful in whatever you wish. It comes from within and its partner is patience. Patience teaches you not to push but rather to wait and appreciate the game of life instead, knowing that nothing remains the same, and everything will change at some point.

Master of Yourself
Before trying to master others, be sure you are the master of yourself.

Cherished Soul
Greet life with enthusiasm and confidence by constantly maintaining the awareness of how cherished you are.

Be Peaceful
To be peaceful is to be free from expectations and to want nothing from anyone.

Humble and Forgiving
Why is it hard to forgive others? Usually because we believe that they are 90% to blame for the problem, that I am not as bad as they are. So I start to carry the load of other people's actions. If my ego is too hurt, I will have the sense of correction, of justice: 'I know I am right', 'That is not fair'. But if I start to forgive from the heart, sincerely, then this kind of feeling and attitude begins to dissolve. I remain humble and this forgiveness will bring me closer to others. Then I do not carry regrets or anger, I just let go and remain light.

Big Heart
Instead of becoming disheartened by any type of upheaval, become one with a big heart.

Wise Soul
A wise soul opens the window to the future by closing the doors to the past.

Love Work
You always have a choice but you forget that you have it. Do you remember the energy and enthusiasm you had on the first day of your first job? You consciously chose to do the work you had gladly accepted to do. But then you gradually fell asleep to the choice you made, and the day became "I have to" go to work, instead of "I want to" go to work. You forgot to see all the opportunities which come with work - opportunities like learning, nourishing and being nourished by others, developing new relationships, expanding your personal capacity. Instead you decided it was just something that you had to do to 'get the money'. This is why most people are sleep-walking through their lives, and they don't know it. The solution, choose your work every day, put the energy of love into your relationships...every day, even if you don't particularly like your job or the people around you. And you'll be amazed at how your life transforms. When you choose to put love into what you do, the universe will move heaven and hell to let you do what you love.

Smile And Say "Hello"
In life you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say "hello".

Courage
Courage is to take a step forward into an area of difficulty without a solution in mind, but yet feeling that victory is ahead. It is going empty handed, but knowing that God's hand is stretched out to pull you.

Open Heart
The heart is like a flower - unless it is open it cannot release its fragrance into the world. The fragrance of the heart is made up of the qualities and virtues of our spirit. Most of us have learned how to keep our heart closed in a world that would trample all over us if we let it. Being open hearted today seems to require tremendous courage. It is a courage which comes only when we realise that no one can hurt us, no matter what they say or do. They may hurt our body, but if we have realised we are spirit, nothing outside can touch us, if we so decide. Little by little, practice opening your heart to those you think have hurt you. Realise it wasn't them that hurt you, it was yourself. And it taught you not to trust and you closed your heart. A closed heart is in need of opening. And when you do, you will have begun to heal yourself.

New Response
If you can see and accept that you create your own stress according to how you are responding, you will then see that there is something you need to unlearn as well as learn. The old response needs to be unlearned, and a new response needs to be learned.

Virtue of Sweetness
Sweetness is a virtue that searches with patience for the good in every person and situation.

Eternal Star
There is a part of you that is perfect and pure. It is untouched by the less-than-perfect characteristics you have acquired by living in a less than perfect world. This part of you is a still and eternal star. Make time to reach it and this will bring you untold benefit.

Invaluable Treasure
Time is an invaluable treasure. Therefore, instead of wasting it, take an instant decision and use time in a worthwhile way.

Embodiments of Solutions
Where there is worry, there cannot be any rest or comfort. Where there is fear there cannot be any peace. However you are embodiments of solutions who find a solution to every problem and this is why you are free from worry and fear. Any problem that comes in front of you comes to play games with you, not to make you afraid.

Harmony
Love dissolves hate. Kindness melts cruelty. Compassion calms passion. Cooperation evokes love and when we bow, others bend. This creates harmony.
