I did something last Saturday that changed my life. I joined two of my friends, Chris Thibeaux and Ken Vaughn, as we went about giving gifts of food to many of the homeless folks in Houston. Ken and Chris were “veterans” at this… I had never done this before…
I say it changed my life… What [...]
So there I was, sitting in a business meeting, about ten of us gathered around the conference room table, with a Power Point slide show going. It was a long meeting, ended up lasting for three hours by the time we were done. And… it started out a little contentious, but eventually came around to [...]
I was in a nice, quaint restaurant the other evening, with some business associates. It’s a very intimate place that serves Cuban Fusion food and has some of the nicest decorations and artwork I’ve ever seen.
The place also has a piano. And we were fortunate enough to be blessed with live piano music during our [...]
You know, I do my very best to stay positive and upbeat, and am committed to my inner work everyday. And one of the new things I’ve added to my life is to begin to eliminate the “news” from each day. I’m talking about the news on TV and in print.
But I have to admit, [...]
Give Away A Dollar A Day is a wonderful practice for anyone to bring into their life. It’s simple, it’s fun, and it’s all about unconditional giving.
And, it’s grown into a world wide movement, where some very blessed things are happening.
A friend wrote to me a few weeks ago saying how she was having some [...]
I’m for peace, not war. In fact, I don’t really even understand war, or why we think we must fight in the first place, because there is never a positive outcome. Nonetheless, there are the men and the women who make the greatest possible sacrifice to serve… And I believe that THESE are the real [...]

I have been incredibly fortunate to meet some wonderful folks through Give Away A Dollar A Day…
My new friend, Hooshang Hasan, of New Zealand, runs a business called AvoPro, growing Avocado trees to sell and to serve Avocado lovers every where!! Hooshang recently blessed me with this wonderful letter:
Hi Todd,
Today, at work, I was thinking [...]
A couple of days ago, everyone in the Greater Houston area was getting prepared for the arrival of Hurricane Ike. Although it was far from being one of the most powerful storms in its strength, it was certainly one of the largest in size to ever hit the Texas coast. We decided to “ride it [...]
For quite some time now, I have considered giving away to be an opportunity for me to release and to let go. As I was getting ready to give away my dollar, I would say a prayer for what I wanted to let go of, and then release that right as I was giving [...]
I dearly love this incredible story from my friend Lenora in Las Vegas…
Since I’ve been giving away a dollar a day, my monthly income has increased by $400.
Here’s the story;
My husband has not been able to work for the past five years, presenting a considerable loss of income. Our home is [...]

Thank you, ma’am!
I love you!!!
Todd

I “officially” started to Give Away A Dollar A Day in August of 2007. If you don’t already know about it, you can read the whole story here.
And, there’s another version that started about 10 years before that, which you can read about here.
However, I have not yet publicly told the story of the first [...]
My good friend Joe Vitale wrote a post in his blog recently, at blog.mrfire.com/music/pickin-love/. I loved that particular post…
OK, ok… so I admit I’m a little biased about the subject material…
And, I loved one of the comments to his post, by Bart, who was expressing his gratitude for Give Away A Dollar A [...]
