Workout for the Week:  Smile at 50 people per day* (minimum, no maximum) Monday- Sunday. Post total smiles at the end of the week.  Total greater than 315 = World Changer, 280 to 314 = Positive Impacter

* Special Conditions:

• Must be 50 different people
• Must get a return smile
• No “machine gun” smiling (i.e. no smiling at a room full of people and counting them all as hits)

3 x 15″ Counting Your Blessings

What do you have to be thankful for?  List down as many things as you can in three “rounds” of 15 minute separate sessions through the week.  Notes:

• must be 15″ consecutive minutes (i.e. not 5 min. here and 7 min. there)
• must be exclusive (i.e. not a part of another task like driving, cleaning,etc)
• must be recorded (written/typed) during the 15 minutes

(e.g. Monday, Wed, Friday for 15″ each day)

**edit** A couple of questions and interesting points have come up from people trying this.  First, to clarify, each 15″ session should conclude with a different list so you’re not copying a previous one.  I don’t think you need to get obsessive so a couple of inadvertent repeats wouldn’t be bad.

Also, in practice, don’t try and focus only on  “deep” things.  It’s ok to start more at the surface and let yourself dive deeper or vice versa.  Think of it maybe as more of a Gratitude Brainstorm.
