next lesson or challenge for you?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">You know that there is something that you should do, change or improve.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">What is it?\u00a0 It is actually calling to you.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">What would happen if you focused on this specific goal or pattern for the next 30 days?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">What if you gave your best each day for the next 30 days, one day at a time&#8230;&#8230;one moment at a time?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">You can do anything if you had to for 30 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Life is about growth.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">You are either growing or dying&#8230;.there is no in between.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">Since now is all you have, what specifically do you want to do with your time?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">I believe we are here on this planet to learn all the good we can and to actualize our divine potential.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\"> The Game of Life is exciting and challenging because we only have a limited amount of time for this specific life.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000080\">\u00a0 Whatever happens after this life ends does not matter, because right now, right here, we only have this one life to complete with the highest level of awareness, truth and excellence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Recently, I came across a new friend named Erial, or Ezzy.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">Ezzy lives in the Gold Coast Mountains of Australia.<br \/>\nEzzy started a 365 day challenge (12 thirty day periods) to become a better person.<br \/>\nAs a matter of fact, Ezzy has a wonderful website full of great information to improve the quality of your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Here are examples of what Ezzy has experienced:<\/span><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I didn\u2019t develop self-discipline \u2013 I found my passion!<\/li>\n<li>I didn\u2019t lose weight by sticking to a diet \u2013 I changed my relationship with food.<\/li>\n<li>I didn\u2019t learn to manage my time \u2013 I got my priorities straight.<\/li>\n<li>I didn\u2019t make everyone like me \u2013 I cut on judging, gossiping and complaining instead.<\/li>\n<li>I didn\u2019t force myself into self-improvement \u2013 I started living consciously.<\/li>\n<li>I didn\u2019t solve the <a title=\"Malnutrition\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Malnutrition\" rel=\"wikipedia\">world hunger<\/a> problem \u2013 I simply made my life purpose helping one person at a time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #000080\">I find Ezzy inspirational.\u00a0 She discovered what is important to herself.\u00a0 She is clear on her vision and purpose and created a plan and goals.\u00a0 Now she is completing her first month and sharing her path, information and joy with the world.\u00a0\u00a0 Go visit her website<\/span><span style=\"color: #000080\"> when you finish this blog.\u00a0 It is worth your time!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">The best way to change the world is to change you and your world and then be an example for others.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\"> Waiting for the world to change or waiting for others to change before you do what you know you should do is a waste.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\"> Take an honest look at your life and ask yourself what is next for you.\u00a0 Then focus and do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Another benefit of following your own path and moving forward in your life is that you feel good.<br \/>\nAlong the way you want to help others and share the blessings that you are discovering.<br \/>\nThese random acts of kindness are very powerful and make a difference in people&#8217;s lives.<br \/>\nYou never can tell how much even a small act of kindness can mean to someone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Mother Teresa did what she did because it was in her heart, it was her calling.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">As a result, look at how many people she helped, the changes she created.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">Look at how many people she inspired to pass it forward.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">You just never know what can happen and how far something can spread.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">Ezzy is a great example of a young, creative person making a difference in her life and the world.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">What is next for you?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080\">What is it that you really want to accomplish before you leave this earth?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\">The best is yet to come&#8230;..there is GOLD DUST in the air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:
