4) "Make Thousands With No Work On Your Part" - This isrepparttar biggest lie onrepparttar 106221 Internet today. Everyone lovesrepparttar 106222 idea of making thousands of dollars while they sleep. Is it possible? Yes! That part isn't a lie. The statement that it will take no work on your part isrepparttar 106223 lie. Even ifrepparttar 106224 company gives you a free Web site, free products to sell for 100% profit, and a free shopping cart, you still have to work - and work hard! How will people find your new Web site? You'll have to market it. That takes a LOT of work in and of itself. Beware when people tell you that their business opportunities take no effort from you.

5) Rushing You To Make A Decision - I'm not talking aboutrepparttar 106225 product sites that offer special discounts if you buy before a specific date.

A Second Chance: Reconnecting with What Matters Most

I felt comfortable in his presence, a familiarity that made me believe he had felt every feeling I had ever had, fromrepparttar time I took my first breath torepparttar 106220 instant I was sizzled by lightning. Looking at this Being I hadrepparttar 106221 feeling that no one could love me better, no one could have more empathy, sympathy, encouragement, and nonjudgmental compassion for me than this Being.

The Being of Light engulfed me, and as it did I began to experience my whole life, feeling and seeing everything that had ever happened to me. It was as though a dam had burst and every memory stored in my brain flowed out.

When I finishedrepparttar 106222 life review, I arrived at a point of reflection in which I was able to look back on what I had just witnessed and come to a conclusion. I was ashamed. I realized I had led a very selfish life, rarely reaching out to help anyone. Almost never had I smiled as an act of brotherly love or just handed somebody a dollar because he was down and needed a boost. No, my life had been for me and me alone. I hadn’t given a damn about my fellow humans.

I looked atrepparttar 106223 Being of Light and felt a deep sense of sorrow and shame. I expected a rebuke, some kind of cosmic shaking of my soul. I had reviewed my life and what I had seen was a truly worthless person. What did I deserve if not a rebuke?

As I gazed atrepparttar 106224 Being of Light I felt as though he was touching me. From that contact I felt a love and joy that could only be compared torepparttar 106225 nonjudgmental compassion that a grandfather has for a grandchild. Again I was allowed a period of reflection. How much love had I given people? How much love had I taken from them? Fromrepparttar 106226 review I had just had, I could see that for every good event in my life, there were twenty bad ones to weigh against it. If guilt were fat, I would have weighed five hundred pounds.

Asrepparttar 106227 Being of Light moved away, I feltrepparttar 106228 burden of this guilt being removed. I had feltrepparttar 106229 pain and anguish of reflection, but from that I had gainedrepparttar 106230 knowledge that I could use to correct my life. I could hearrepparttar 106231 Being’s message in my head, again as if through telepathy; “Humans are powerful spiritual beings meant to create good onrepparttar 106232 earth. This good isn’t usually accomplished in bold actions, but in singular acts of kindness between people. It’srepparttar 106233 little things that count, because they are more spontaneous and show who you truly are.”

I was elated. I now knewrepparttar 106234 simple secret to improving humanity. The amount of love and good feelings you have atrepparttar 106235 end of your life is equal torepparttar 106236 love and good feelings you put out during your life. It was just that simple.

“My life will be better now that I haverepparttar 106237 secret,” I said torepparttar 106238 Being of Light.

It was then that I realized that I wouldn’t be going back. I had no more life to live. I had been struck by lightning. I was dead.

After reading about Dannion Brinkley’s near-death experience, I paused to imagine what it would be like to see my whole life flash before me inrepparttar 106239 span of 28 minutes…to feel every emotion, think every opinion and review every event that had ever happened in my life. Would I like what I saw…what I thought…what I felt? Whether you believe in these near-death experiences or not,repparttar 106240 idea of such an intense review of one’s life is rather mind-boggling.

Given that only a small percentage ofrepparttar 106241 population has reported having a near-death experience (most people don’t live to tell about it),repparttar 106242 majority of us can only imagine what that experience would be like. Perhapsrepparttar 106243 closest you or I will ever get to this is by imagining that you have just died after living a long life and you are listening in on your own memorial service. I challenge you to ponder these questions:

1. What would you want people to say about your life? What would represent a life well-lived with no regrets? (This represents your beliefs, commitments, and values.)

2. If you continued to live your life just as you are now, what do you think people would have to say about you someday at your memorial service? (This represents how well your actions and behaviors align with your beliefs, commitments, and values.)

3. Based on your responses above, is there anything you choose to do differently than you are doing right now? If so, what’s holding you back from doing it?

I encourage you to identify one thing that you choose to do differently, and come up with an action plan to begin this week.
