The past 2 years have been quite unpredictable! One of the learning outcomes of IIGL is to set goals and intentions for personal empowerment and well being. Personally, there have been a few new daily goals and intentions I’ve committed to for my own wellness that I wanted to share! They are:<\/p>\n

First, I set intention for the upcoming day! Before I get out if bed each morning, I set intention even at the least in a general sense for a great day for me, for my highest and best to be co-created and then I consciously give gratitude to all that I have and know!<\/p>\n

Next, I have a favorite songs list that I choose from throughout the day regardless of what I’m doing especially while completing household chores and computer work! The songs are from all different time periods and genres! They are all available for free on You Tube!<\/p>\n

Third, I color every day even if it’s just for 5-10 minutes! I have different books I choose from and mostly use colored pencils and glitter markers! Sometimes I close my eyes and free draw just to see what comes through on a blank page!<\/p>\n

Fourth, I exercise, at a minimum for 10-15 minutes a day. It makes a huge difference in my overall attitude and feeling! Every day I do yoga stretches and walk or bike ride even if it’s just walking close to my house.<\/p>\n

Also, I check on a friend or family member each day that may be in need of support. I talk with and share a laugh with at least one person every day for connection purposes!<\/p>\n

Finally, I have a joy list and do one thing from it everyday even if it’s simple like smell a flower, make myself a nice meal and watch the sun rise and set!<\/p>\n

What Others Are Saying<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nI am a Professor Emeritus and Faculty Mentor in Leadership and Organizational Change. I was on the IIGL Board and a donor for several years. I just turned 80 so I \u201cretired.\u201d They do magnificent work, especially in the African nations, educating potential leaders in the art and practice of leadership. They have graduated many students who are now practicing transformational leadership in their home countries. I give IIGL the Highest rating!<\/p>\n

What are Students are Reading<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Power of Now ($7.99)<\/strong>
\nIt’s no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 2 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, \u201cthe eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death. Mapping is a simple technique for success. It has helped individuals achieve success.\u201d<\/p>\n

Make A Difference<\/strong>
\nDream Team 22<\/strong>
\nPlease join Dream Team 22 as our goal is to have 22 people contributing $22 per month. We understand that money is energy and that to sustain and build IIGL we need a lot of people pouring their energy into this endeavor on a regular basis. We also know that not everyone can afford to commit $22 a month \u2013 especially our students, who live in countries with economies in which this amount can be equal to a weeks\u2019 salary. So we are offering two options for those who wish to become a part of the Dream Team. One can commit to a $22 a month contribution or to spending 22 seconds each day holding the vision of IIGL becoming financially sustainable by the end of 2021!<\/p>\n

Please join the Dream Team and help us create an energetic foundation to support the transformational work of IIGL! You can really make a difference in the world by making a modest contribution of time or money. To make the $22 a month commitment or a one time donation, click the link below. To become a member of the Dream Team 22 by committing 22 second a day to help us hold the vision, contact Deb for details: drosen2@wi.rr.com<\/p>\n
