Yesterday I got some awesome news. My friend Garry and I have been working on a book project since October 2008. We actually met in Jamaica and formed a quick friendship. We were trying to think of a way that we could help the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Then, the book idea was formed. Publish a book with positive stories from people who have worked at McDonald’s and the lessons they learned there.
After 11 months of persistence and determination, we actually have official legal approval to move ahead. The best part, 100% of the proceeds will go directly to benefit the families with ill children. The tentative title is, “Transformational Stories from Behind the Counter: Lessons I Learned at McDonald’s.”
With the official approval, we also get some pretty cool marketing. Corporate McDonald’s in Chicago is going to advertise for us on their internal website. The Ronald McDonald House is going to get the word out too. Now how sweet is that?
If you know of someone who worked at McDonald’s and think that they might like to submit a story, send them to www.fastfoodfunfacts.com to see the details for capturing their story. We are expecting there to be between 30-50 stories in this project.
With total gratitude,
Bill
Last night I was thinking about the week ahead of me. It dawned on me that I have the power to create the kind of week I want. So, this week I am going to create a happy, peaceful and abundant week. To assist me in creating the incredible week, I plan to do a 15 minute visualization during the day. I will also do positive affirmations throughout the day. I will do these affirmations in the morning, around lunch time, mid afternoon, at supper time and just before I go to sleep. To supercharge my incredible week, I also plan to do a visualization at bedtime.

The other night I did something I haven’t really done before. I started reading literature (OK, sure, I read some in college & high school but that was because I HAD to and hated it!). I bought the book Essays & Poems by Ralph Waldo Emerson because I use so many of his quotes in my daily positive point emails. I figured that he must be a pretty cool dude because his quotes are my favorites.
while also benefit others in the process. When you are free of past hurts, pains and greivances you are able to give to others the best of you. With that in mind, here’s his morning’s Daily Positive Points to get your new year started off with a positive note:
