True happiness is an inside job. Look at a happy person's life, and you don't see any magic or unicorns. There's nothing in them that isn't also in you. Though external realities can certainly play a role, happiness doesn't spring from what you have, what happens to you, the situation you are in, where you are, or anything else. In fact if it were easy to be happy, this book would be a very short one!

A collection of the popular 21-Day Challenge Series.

Let's start with a thought experiment. Take a moment to imagine yourself, only a supremely confident version. Think of how you'd be at work, at home, with those you love and those you don't. Think of all the things you'd do differently. Now, this is the important thing: You can feel this way right now. You can feel brave and confident and full of a sense of your own self-esteem right now, just as you are.

The present moment is a strange place. We are all trapped here, really, and there is utterly no other place to be, yet so few of us take a moment to stop and have a look around. The future and the past all exist in the mind. They are only ever memories, dreams, little flickers in the electrified meat we generously call our brains. The only thing that is real is the moment that is happening right now. Learn how to practice mindfulness and create more calm, joy and focus in your life TODAY! Are you ready to take the challenge?

In this book, we'll look at ways to uncover your own personal psychology behind money, as well as practical methods to make and reach finance goals. From saving pennies here and there by cutting out mindless spending to rethinking your approach to saving entirely, we'll tackle your money issues the simple way: day by day. We'll consider realistic ways to save money, but also look in-depth at what it really means to live a minimalist life and what the true value of the items in our lives actually is.

During this challenge, you'll try to let go of the mythical ideal diet; we will focus on continuous improvement rather than perfection. And, most importantly, flexibility and joy rather than deprivation. The only one who knows if a diet is good for you or not is your own body. So ask it! During the 21 days of the challenge, we'll look at opportunities to clear away foods that are hindering your health and replace them with better ones.

Are you tired of self-doubt, self-criticism, and holding back? Do you often feel like you're not good enough? Are you ready to change your life and reclaim your self-confidence? Lets start with a thought experiment. Take a moment to imagine yourself, only a supremely confident version. If you have a ridiculous imagination like I do, you might like to really run with this and have fun. If you had zero body hang ups, no doubts about your value as an employee, no worries about your innate lovability, and no second guesses as to how good your karaoke really was and whether people have just been lying to you this whole time...what would things look like?

Let's start with a thought experiment. Take a moment to imagine yourself, only a more calm and peaceful version. Think of how you'd be at work, at home, with those you love and those you don't. Think of all the things you'd do differently, how you would feel and look.

By living a more minimalist lifestyle, you invite calm and quiet into your daily life, you become more efficient, and you take action with more conviction than before. You don't fall prey to cheesy advertising, and you make your own goals. You think of money as a tool to reach your goals, and not the goal itself. Being minimalist in today's world can feel a bit like swimming upstream. This book will be a good starting point, a catalyst, and maybe even a kick in the pants if you've had enough of chaos, mess, and disorganization in your life.

Are you tired of being lazy, out of shape, and lacking energy? Are you ready to understand and disempower your excuses, start taking care of yourself, and move that body of yours as a daily habit? Everybody can agree that having a more active lifestyle is a good thing. Nobody would argue that we couldn't all do a little more exercise. And yet...why is it so hard to actually do it? If you're reading this, you've probably gotten fed up with how difficult it is to always be starting a new exercise regime, only to go back to your old habits in a few weeks.

Even if you can't meet the expectations of others on a daily basis, don't excel at anything, or don't look like a Victoria's Secret model, everyone should be treated with respect, understanding, love, and acceptance - including you.

What you can expect from this challenge is a no-nonsense, common-sense approach to shaking off some of the dieting industry's BS and trying to remember what our bodies know. We'll look at common-sense ways to gradually and safely lose weight that honor our instincts, not go against them.

Even if you are not sick, toxins are keeping you from feeling as energetic and looking as good as you could - and that's where detoxification comes in. Detox is a process that accelerates the body's natural cleansing functions by amplifying the effects of a healthy diet. After the detox, continuing a healthy diet will prolong the benefits you jump-started from your internal purification.

This weekly podcast follow’s Gary’s personal journey to understand God’s favor and the ways his life has changed as a result. It also explores the issues God has laid on Gary’s heart for those who are struggling to match their understanding of grace and divine love with the daily realities of life. Above all, God wants our lives to demonstrate His unearned grace to a hurting, unbelieving world.

Do you ever look at people who are successful, healthy, and happy and wonder what their secret is? Why you can't be like that? After more than a decade-long struggle with emotional eating, depression, and low self-esteem, I realized that the reason I couldn't be happy like the people I envied was that I didn't love myself. For me, developing self-love has been profoundly healing. I can hardly believe how effortless it has been for me to quit overeating, exercise daily, attract a loving relationship, and more.

The 21-Day Weight Loss Challenge will help you to realize that right now you have fat, as opposed to being fat. It's not your identity; it's a temporary state, a choice. Explore and understand the excuses and reasons that keep you overweight. Why aren't you more active? Why aren't you eating healthier? Why do you eat when you're body isn't hungry?

Productive people don't have any more time in their days than you do, and they certainly aren't busier than you are. The main difference is focus. A productive person has a way to cut through life's clutter and nonsense and make sure that most of his or her efforts go to the good stuff - fulfilling work, relationships, self-improvement...anything he or she values, really.
