Celebrate! and Celebright!

A couple weeks ago, I subscribed to a daily e-mail that two very good friend of mine have created. It’s called Today’s Mantra, and it’s from Mr. 2020 and Carol Wingert.
Here’s the one that arrived on the morning of the Fourth -
Today’s Mantra is, “Celebrate!”
I almost wanted to write “Celebright!”. I know that’s not […]

Flowing Both Ways

My good friend, John Crewdson, replied to an e-mail I sent where I asked about any challenges he might be having with every day giving. Here’s his reply:
Todd,
I must admit, I’ve been pretty lax about giving away a dollar a day. I just re-listened to a Hypnotic Gold Interview with Rabbi Lapin on his […]

Be Like A Child

This morning, when I was giving away my dollar, I was thinking (or, rather, listening to my inner critic…) about why I was doing this. It was as if I was questioning why I was still giving away a dollar, every day…
I’ve heard the words of the voice before, and this time the dribble wasn’t […]

Children’s Books

I just had an incredible experience… I was looking around the house for books from which I could find quotes on prosperity, for study and for possible inclusion in my weekly e-mail Inspirations From Give Away A Dollar A Day.
The more I looked, the more I realized my bookshelves were filled with books on […]

Holding The Sun

OK, so I’m going out on a limb with this one… I’m not really sure what this has to do with giving, but I absolutely LOVE these pictures!!
You may have already seen some of them as they are making their way around on the web. My wife, Victoria, sent me an e-mail with these photos […]

Firewalking!

My family had a grand adventure just this past weekend. We went firewalking. Yep, that’s right… FIREWALKING!
We had done this a couple times before, but it had been awhile. So we were eager to reunite in the loving energy of the incredible Fire Master, John Maisel, of Eagle-Heart. I was tempted to write much about […]

Do Women Give More Than Men?

I have just discovered something interesting…
First of all, Give Away A Dollar A Day is catching on! Folks are having a lot of fun with this, and quite a few are writing to me with their stories of positive, personal transformation, and with their own creative ideas for giving away!
But here’s the part that’s […]

First Flight

I think I’ve fallen in love again.
Only this time… It’s with a butterfly.

A few years ago, my wife planted a bush in our back yard that was purported to attract caterpillars and butterflies. Well this Spring, it attracted them alright!
Dozens of these little crawlies started appearing in April, so our whole family has been […]

Now That’s What I Call Good Fortune…

I had lunch at a Chinese food restaurant yesterday. PF Changs to be exact… Pretty good food, I must say!
And I loved the fortune inside the cookie. It says it all and needs no explanation!!

Blessings to you, and happy cookie eating, too!
Todd

Just Give Love

I am growing more and more fond of my meditation time each day…
During meditation this morning, I noticed that I was thanking Spirit for all that was going to happen and come into my life, and for all that I was going to get as a result of it.
Then it dawned on me that I […]

How much is too much?

It’s Saturday morning, and I’m getting ready to pay the bills. Just opened the checkbook and saw this really big expense for groceries, and my first reaction was that I wanted to quiz my wife on why she spent so much.
Ooooohh……….
God, have I been here before…
Way too many times before…
Where I wanted to berate […]

Nothing gets done with “gotta-get-it-done-right-now”

Right now, my blog is down.
I canceled my old hosting account that it was on because I was transferring it over to a newer and better account. I was told by the hosting company that everything would be OK, and that none of the blog posts would be lost. Well… that wasn’t exactly true. I’m […]

Giving AND Receiving

I had a bunch of deadlines that just had to be met, if I was going to stay on track and launch the Give Away A Dollar A Day website in time for the mid January release. So I had work to do, mostly graphical editing.
I was doing my work while I was at […]

So, How Long Are You Supposed To Give Away A Dollar A Day?

I was talking to my good friend, Chris, today. Chris is pretty fired up about Give Away A Dollar A Day and how it is uplifting his life. So he’s been out telling others about it. One of the folks he had talked to recently wanted to know how long a person […]

To Give Away, Or Not To Give Away, That Is The Question

So there I was, minding my own business, trying to find a parking spot in downtown Houston, on an otherwise pretty normal Saturday afternoon…
Hey, I have to admit, I’m pretty good at parallel parking, and I tend to take my time to do it right. So I found a spot, and began the intricate process. […]
