Everything written in this thread is POSSIBLE! Go for it!

I am choosing every day to unleash my full potential and be all I can be.

I want every one of my positive desires and abilities to be expressed to the fullest level of their potential, without the slightest trace of fear.

I want to make a huge difference and positive impact in this life.

I want to see people walk in freedom to be all of who they already are.

I want to create a Charity that will change the lives of millions of people by empowering them to make a living following their passion and purpose. (Yes, I'm thinking big)

I want to help many animals and build an animal sanctuary where every one is valued and loved.

1.i want to know what's happiness.
2.i want to focus my attention on one thing every time.
3.i want to sleep better.
4.i want to be more power to help others.

I am enjoying reading what others want!

Can we help each other? I bet we can. Let's start threads for each of these things.

I share some goals with each of you. Some of these dreams already have threads, or we can start new threads to discuss how to make our goal be realized.

With happiness for instance, i am still trying to learn but each morning i try to write three things i'm looking forward to in my day in a thread in this section, and i try to remember at the end of the day to think of the "best parts" of the day and to be grateful for my blessings, and again we started a thread in this section for that and everyone is welcome to join. I have found this definitly helps happiness. I think happiness is less about circumstances and more about attitude and focus, and doing this helps me to focus on the positive. Improving circumstances can help, but only with the right attitude of appreciation.

Cdmohatta and i have been discussing business and ideas about money, but i think we could use a good thread here on the forum about that especially. Should we start it here or in the section about money?

BillieCat, what are your thoughts on your goals for improvement? What have you learned so far and what would you like to know? Would you start a thread for us?

Sue, we have a thread about confidence and one about happiness. They are subjects i'm very interested in as well. Shall we pull them up and start talking again?

Jase and Skyhaven, i'm trying to get more fit, too. I just got my new jump rope in the mail yesterday, and i'm using that and trying to do 10-15 minutes of weight training a day, and wish to eat better. It would be helpful to me to start a community with others so we can help each other stay on track. I suppose we should start this in the health and fitness section. What do you think?

Skyhaven, i have fears too i must get over. And i'm sure others at Bella also would like to find ways of dealing with insecurities.

Tami, i think it's wonderful that you're thinking big. It fits you well, and i believe you will accomplish these things.

Holly

A lot of us have mentioned happiness. I know it is "found within" but I also think it is affected by outside factors. Why do you think there are so many unhappy people? Are there actually happy (you know like childhood happy) people out there? Ist it just easier to be unhappy? It's not that I am actually unhappy, it is more of a "I'm neither happy or unhappy - just here going through the motions"
