Affirmwear For Your Life

“It started with a question: How can we inspire people to take action on climate change?

The answer: Ask the people of Sydney to turn off their lights for one hour.

On 31 March 2007, 2.2 million people and 2100 Sydney businesses turned off their lights for one hour – Earth Hour. This massive collective effort reduced Sydney’s energy consumption by 10.2% for one hour, which is the equivalent effect of taking 48,000 cars off the road for one hour.

With Sydney icons like the Harbour Bridge and Opera House turning their lights off, and unique events such as weddings by candlelight, the world took notice. Inspired by the collective effort of millions of Sydneysiders, many major global cities are joining Earth Hour in 2008, turning a symbolic event into a global movement.”

This is a great idea! Gathering all the stuff that you no longer use and bringing it to a central location with a bunch of other folks and giving it away for free. It’s a throwback to the 60s when the “hippies” opened free stores. Wouldn’t it be great if every city and town around the world created these Really Free Markets. It would be a great counter-movement to the commerce driven lifestyle most of us live.

I give away things such as clothes, gadgets, cd’s, dvd’s, etc. that I haven’t used for six months or more. I figure anything that hasn’t been used for at least six months is not doing anything but cluttering up my space but may be something that would be used by someone else. Betcha you have a lot of stuff that you haven’t used in a long while. Why not let it help someone else out!

Here’s a video of Robin Sharma sharing how to create a dream book. This is like creating a vision board of all the things you would like to show up in your life. I highly recommend doing this. Taking images of what it is you want to be, do or have in your life can be an extremely powerful way of opening yourself to receiving everything you desire.
