30/30 Challenge

this page is dedicated to my program:
The 30/30 challenge, also called 30-Day Good-Feel Challenge:)


You can join a online group (contact me for more information) or just play with it on your own by using the guidance on this page (please notice that the daily tasks are formulated for the group participation and adjust accordingly if you play on your own).
Overall goal: Feel Good!

What is 30/30 Challenge? 

The 30/30 challenge is plainly creative workshop with daily tasks that need to be completed. The time required is about 30 minutes a day. The tasks take mostly just few minutes but the work with the information may take about 30 minutes a day.

The challenge in it is to stick to the program for 30 days without interruption.

When you leave one day out, you start the next day on day one again.

The exercises are based on the fact that our emotions have energy of a specific vibration and the law of resonance brings into our experiences always the corresponding energy of events.
So in essence: good-feeling emotions result in good-feeling life-experiences.

The goal of the 30/30 challenge is to retrain our emotional responses from default to intentional in a lighthearted, playful way.

Daily fun-exercises will give the participant real experience of the power of attention and thoughts.

This is a playful program where imagination and creativity are used to have a good-feeling time from the inside out.

Once mastered, the skill of intentional guidance of thoughts and emotion will result in a better-feeling life in general.

The first group starts online on Tuesday 19.11.2013.

 Ready-Set-Go:)









..................................................

Day 1: Hunting for Happy Moments:


Task:
Make yourself deliberately happy with a specific activity.
Share with us (in the “comment”)
  1.  what you did
  2.  how did it make you feel
  3.  and why
You are not limited to one instant of this exercise. Play with it as much you like, observing and sharing with us the best of your experiences.
You may have a new “aha-moment”. Please share what helped you as it can help us as well. If you want to take a picture and share it even better (if you have any questions, let me know. ) I will do the exercise as well and post my experience here with you in the comments. You may want to start a journal to express your creativity that will be flowing through you in the upcoming days.
Enjoy your Day :)
30 Days of Happy Stickies
This exercise is designed to be your daily tool to guide your emotions to good-feeling ones and therefore attract into your life good-feeling experiences.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Day 2:  Assignment: 30 Days of Good Nights 

Now that you started to notice and more importantly, deliberately create your Happy Moments throughout the day, your second assignment is as follows:
  1. In the evening before you go to sleep, take your journal and contemplate the day in retrospect, by expressing gratitude for instances that made you feel appreciated, happy and grateful.
  2. for example write: I am grateful for the delivery of my papers, thank you for the nice chat at the post office, thank you for the wonderful sunny day...etc.
  3. Write as much you want. The key is to feel good while you are writing down your notes of appreciation.
  4. Continue with this practice every day. The act of remembering and writing down will influence your general emotional state in a positive way. Do this for all of the 30 days and see how your life will change for the better. Those happy and good-feeling moment are gifts and if you acknowledge them, more of wonderful things start to happen for you.
Good Vibes = Good Life

3.Day/30 – Friday 22.11.2013



Assignment:

IMAGINE!
You have $10.000 that you must spend before Sunday night, preferably on something that will make you feel like dream-come-true time

The goal of this exercise is to stretch out imagination thereby shorten the distance between our dream-life and how we feel about it.
Our logic often is the reason why we cannot move forward the way we want to and today’s exercise is just to play with our imagination so the logic does not interfere.

Although it’s a fun-exercise, please approach it with genuine attention to detail. Find facts that will make your description of it as real as possible. For example, if you going to fly somewhere on the weekend, check the airfare, the flight schedule etc. and plan it the way you really would do it in reality.

You have 3 days to complete this exercise.
Pick a subject that you really want. Is there a dream you have for longer now, that you can pick to play with?

I hope you’ll manage to continue with the daily Happy Moment “sticky” and also the Good-Night Gratitude List (try to find at least 5 things you can be grateful for from the daily experience and post them as “comment” to this post.

I will create a new post Saturday and also for Sunday, so you can continue to share with us your daily exercise (happy Moments and Good-Night Gratitude List)
The Monday post is then for your description of Your Weekend Adventure

I wish you much joy and Happy Moments.
It's about training our mind for happy moments around money, so please don't spend real money on this exercise:)

Have Fun!
Reach your dream in your mind first!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Day 4 & 5 - 30 Day Good- Life Challenge
continued the daily exercise from day and day 2 and complete the exercise from day 3. 
Write all the assignments in your journal.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Day 6 - 30 Day Good-Life Challenge:
post the result of your 10.000 dollars exercise 

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Day 7 - 30 Day Good-Life Challenge:

Exercise: Speak your Words!

We are now in the week two and can turn up the momentum bit more:)

To practice more of what we are learning and to give everyone the opportunity to experience stronger emotional improvement, I am posting here my today's blog post as it explains clearly our exercise for the 7th Day.

You have the words; now add the voice to it!

I understand that there is more effort required to speak aloud what you were until now writing or mentally recalling.
You also can see that the 30/30 challenge is between you and you, which is a good news as you have the full control.

To make this exercise as free flowing as possible, find a private space where you know nobody can disturb or hear your words - from my personal experience that is really allowing to let the words flow.

Please post in the comments:

A/ Could you do? And if yes:
1. / Did you noticed improvement in your mood?
2. / Did you noticed difference between the emotional improvement through writing exercise compared to now speaking exercise?

You do not need to post the words you were saying as they will just flow and you'll be not able to recall them unless you'll tape it.



8. Day/30 - Wednesday 27.11.2013

Today I want to recap:
we have learned three daily exercises.
Which means to make it your intent to do all of those daily.

As all three exercises revolve around the same subject, it shouldn't take much time to blend them into your day, every day.
1/ Happy Moments,
2/ Good-Night Gratitude List or
3/ the Turning-Up the Momentum Talk

Today's assignment is to use the exercises and deliberately create a good-feeling and hold it with thoughts/words or focus for at least 3 minutes each time for about 3-times during the day (it can be morning, day and evening or anything that works for you). More is of course better, but this is your target goal for today.

Please choose what you'd like to share with us how it works for you.

I am also posting quick clip with an offer to connect.

 
9. Day/30 - Thursday 28.11.2013

Teeny-tiny exercise (also to be a daily one).

The Mirror exercise.
Luise Hay is famous for this and I learned it from Deepak Chopra's work.

The task:
Look in the mirror to your image and say, by looking in your eyes: "I love You (and say your name), I really really love you".

You can add to it as much you like, but the basic task is to train yourself into being intentionally loving toward yourself.

Ideally, once this becomes a habit, you will say this sentence every time you look in the mirror; aloud when you are undisturbed and in your mind when there are other people around.

Try it and share your experience here.

I wish you many happy moments!!!!

Day 21/30 - Tuesday 10.12.2013

Assignment: The "Thank You" Letter

Please pick a person that is/was/will be/ influential in your life and write to that person a virtual Thank You Letter by going into specifics about events that made you feel really good.
1/Describe those events and
2/Describe your feelings about it.

This is just a virtual exercise, but if you are writing with a real person in mind, you can give it to that person when appropriate.
Too often our words of our appreciation go unnoticed (maybe we even do not speak them often enough), but when delivered in a written form, they have much bigger impact on the recipient.
The intention here is to move your mood into the appreciation-mode for a longer period of time and to the realization of your own power to influence your emotions by using your thoughts. :)

To master this is the key to emotional freedom.

Enjoy:)


Day 22/30 - Wednesday 11.12.2013

Assignment: the "What could be even better" exercise

This lighthearted exercise is to train your imagination into improved life situations.
Do it for the joy of it and as long it feels good and playful.

Take one of your life-situations as it is now and ask, “What could be even better? (WCEB)” and answer it with one step higher to the now.
Then ask again WCEB? and answer with the next possible improvement.
Repeat the process as long you can come up with a new idea and as long it feels good. Have fun!

Example:
I am sitting here at my computer desk
WCEB? I would have an ergonomic chair
WCEB? I would have a separate office
WCEB?: I would be booking my vacation
WCEB?: I would be already on my vacation
.and so on

This innocent exercise can be used anytime your mind is bringing you negative thoughts and you need to get focused out of the negative spin

I’m looking forward to read it - Have Fun!


Day 23/30 - Thursday 11.12.2013

Assignment: I Appreciate what I Have

The goal is to spend extended period of time in a deliberately created good-feeling mood.

We have so many great things in our life, things we acquired maybe quite the long time ago and now the excitement that was there when we got it is gone.

We can connect again with the positive of those objects simply by realizing how much they benefit our life.

The exercise:

1. Look around in your surroundings and pick an object that is pleasing you (no people or animals this time:)
2. Count all the positive aspects that you see in it (5-10 per object would be great)
3. Do it intentionally on at least 5 objects or as long it creates a good-feeling vibe.

This can be spoken in your mind, or aloud or written down

Choose the method that brings you into the highest energy of joy/ good-feeling/appreciation.

You may share with us your appreciation for one object (or more if you like)

Have Fun!!!



Day 24,25,26/30 – Friday 13.12. to Sunday 15.12.
Assignment: What we focus on, expands

This weekend’s exercise requires attention to how you speak about yourself and your life.

Your task is to watch for statements you make that are pointing you away from your goal.
Examples of such statements may start with :

I don’t like….
I don’t know…..
I don’t want to…..
I wish for no ….
I want no …
I hate…..
I dislike
I fear……
Etc.

Example for the assignment:
“I hate to drive at night”…transforms to : “I prefer to drive by daylight”

Every word we speak is an affirmation,
Train yourself to affirm what you want and not the absence or opposite of it.
Your words create!

Share with us statements you noticed and the transcript into positive statement.

Enjoy your weekend!


Day 27,28,29 /30 – Monday 16.12.2013- to Wednesday 18.12.2013

We are getting closer to the finish line of our 30-day challenge, so this assignment has more depth to it.
Assignment: Your Ideal You = who you really are

There is the real you as you are now and there is the ideal you, the one you are striving to align with, the one you are crystallizing as you live you life’s journey.

You know this Ideal You, it is your inner voice that you hear and try to listen and follow.
The fact that you know this ideal you, means that it already exists and that you are not only becoming that person, but that ideal you is waiting for you to breathe life into it.

Spend those last 3 days of our 30 day good-feel challenge by “dusting off” the picture of the ideal you.
Contemplate what are your values and talents, your attributes? How do you picture this ideal you?

Write a description of the ideal you, the one you admire and wish to be.
“Paint” the picture of your ideal you with your words or your paintbrush, breathe life into it now.

Once created in the writing exercise it will start to live closer to your heart.
It will shine bright and be your lighthouse always giving you signal, “This way please”.

It’s important exercise and I’m giving you 3 days to work on it as it may take time to contemplate.  Share with us what you feel comfortable with.
Please continue with the daily exercises.

Day 30/30 - Thursday 19.12.2013
Today is the last day of our 30-day Good-Feel Challenge,

we learned about tools and methods that can help us to heighten our mood, our emotions, to better-feeling ones.

The method of life-improvement is based on the concept that everything is energy, that our thoughts and emotions resonate with like-vibrational events that then become part of your life-experience.

Reality is a completely individual perception of outside circumstances. Every one of us perceives life events differently and the quality of this perception defines the quality of that person's life.

We learned about the resonance of frequencies and how we can choose to alight with good-feeling energy and create a resonant response in our environment.

The 30 days were just to show you that you have the power to direct your thoughts, that you have the power to create emotional change by deliberately guiding your focus.

Everything you envision as an improvement of your life; finances, relationships, life style is in the good-feel zone. Therefore the only thing you really need to work on is to tune up your vibes in the good-mood state so you'll develop sensitivity for times where you do not feel good and actively navigate into a better feeling mood.

Now It's up to you if you continue or not, but if you do the reward will be a better feeling life and self-empowerment through knowing the power of your focus.

Let me know if you like to continue to share your happy moments in this group. If you'd like continue here I certainly will carry on with sharing information with occasional special task.

There will be one more post tomorrow.

Thank you very much for going through this challenge, I hope you learned about yourself and can use the tools learned here for a new 30,60,90...days till managing your mood becomes a habit.

Have a wonderful Thursday!
..................................................................
More of 30/30: 30/30 - 2

Day 1/30 - Friday 20.12.2013

New chapter begins:) Dear friends,
You walked through the exploration of the power of your focus. You learned that you have the capacity to control tour emotions, your mood, by intentionally directing your focus.
What you put your attention on becomes immediately part of your personal reality.
What you hold predominantly in you attention is the signal that is echoed by “life” as you prime the communication with the predominant emotions.
You emotional state dictates your decisions and action. A mood of joy will result in decisions closer to the creativity and positive actions.
1. You have the power to tune up your emotions intentionally any time you choose to. 2. You defined your life’s purpose; you know in your heart what you want to make contribution to in this life. 3. You defined the Ideal self, which is the True You.
Now you have the tools and you have the destination.
Use you tool, tune your vibration into the sphere of creativity and uplifting energy and set your sights on being the True You as often you can; Whenever you think of, take on the poise of the Ideal You, practice the body languages and actions as your Ideal You would do, ask yourself “how would my ideal self do this?” and try in enjoyable small actions to get familiar with that amazing person that is the True You. Take actions that support your life’s purpose, the cause you are passionate about because that is also the true you.
It feels great to be who you really are – Be It and Have Fun!
If you like to try for those Life-Improvements, get a symbol of this intention that will remind you to stay on the path.
If you like, share the picture of that symbol with us here.
I will keep this group open as an opportunity and an active reminder of your quest to a better feeling life. Post your happy moments or anything that made your life a good-feeling one. I will post daily posts for you to share your stories in the comments.
Much Love and Appreciation!

Day 2/ 30-2 Saturday 21.12.2013
How did you make yourself happy?
Day 3/ 30-2 Sunday 22.12.2013

Watch for the Universal responses.
Everything what is happening in our experience is the materialized reflection of your state of being (thought, believes and feelings, expectations). If you experience something that feels good or the opposite everything is the reflection of who you are "inside". Wanna change what is "happening to you", you need to look inside and shift into a better feeling states and expectation of good things happening.
Let for the upcoming days
1. continue with the daily happy moments and appreciation 2. also start to notice the Universal deliveries
The Universe is constantly delivering the mirror image of what we believe our life is.
Start right now and remember as often you can to BE THE EMBODIMENT OF WHO YOU WANT TO BE. Act from that place of your ideal self. Walk like the person with that ideal career, that ideal body, that bank balance you want, that residence, that relationship......
Get yourself some "reminder" that will trigger the memory of this intention whenever you see or touch it. Matter-of-fact post here the picture of the reminders in tell us where you placed those reminders (your pocket? Your Kitchen counter? Your vehicle?)

Day 4/ 2-30 - Monday 22.12.2013

Affirmations and vision boards:

To keep those reminders(vision boards, screen savers, affirmation stickies) alive, we need to move them around so they get our attention again.
Change the placement of the reminders to create more energy.

Attention:
notice your emotional response to the reminders. How does it feel, when you look at the image or affirmation?
Is it excitement and knowing "I know I am the creator of my experience, therefore i just relax and let the Universe deliver all the puzzle pieces at the right time and the right place"?

If your emotional response is more a thought that it's not here yet, then remove that reminder.

We place reminders and affirmations to be reminded to raise the vibration to more positive mood so check how you are doing and make adjustment if needed.

Continue with your daily by recording how You created a good feeling day or event.

Reminders can be anything that reminds you of that, in order to live the life you envision, you need to have the state of being of that desired situation.

Start with your posture and body language.

What is the demeanour of the person your want to be?
Imagine that moment and adjust your posture.

If you are interested to know more, there is a whole science called NLP about influence of our body on our mood; and mood is what we are working on here. Good Vibes = Good Life!
