The 4 Investments: Part 3 - Your Turn
By: Mark Joyner
Kaizen Club is launching on 6 November, but wait ...
Before you start it's important that you get in the proper frame of mind. So I want to issue one more challenge to you.
The difference is: your response to this challenge may make this the most important blog post you ever read.
So read on ...
(The winners of this contest, and last week's contest, will all be announced on launch day.)
Please answer these two questions in the comments below - either simply as text, or with a YouTube video:
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Answer those two questions in 100 words or less in the comments below.
The most inspiring answer will win a one hour live consultation with me and free membership to Kaizen Club for life.
We'll select 4 replies at random and give them a free annual membership to Kaizen Club.
If you want to spice up your response with a YouTube video we encourage you to do so, but it is not required. Just make sure:
a. You mention "This is my entry for the Simpleology KaizenClub.com contest" at the start of your video. And begin the text description of your video with this URL: http://www.simpleology.com/blog
b. Include a link to the video in your comments below (otherwise we may never see it!)
If you have any questions, please contact our 24 hour live help desk. I look forward to see your entry! (I will read and/or watch each of them personally.)
Remember: the importance of this particular challenge is not who wins, but that you answer. There is something extremely powerful in what you're about to do here that you may not understand yet. (I'll explain next week.) So, I encourage everyone to take a moment now and respond.

The one thing I should improve right now and from now on in my life is the MINDSET or ATTITUDE that I have when I look to any thing, situation, problem or the world as a whole.
Because the MINDSET or the ATTITUDE is your very own FILTER that shapes any event in your life, for yourself, and your entire life.
I am what I think I am, so I will post a reminder for myself, RIGHT NOW, on my desktop, to try to remember always the truth about myself, as Nisargadatta said: "TAT TWAM ASI"!
The most important thing that is needed in this world is peace. Let there be peace in this world, and let it start with me.
Meditation is the one thing that I can do to increase peace and harmony in my life, and the life of my family and the immediate community I live in.
Meditation will also settle my otherwise distracted mind. Clarity emerges from a calm mind. From clarity will emerge better thinking, when channeled properly can aid in better decision making.
Finally, as a human being, I have an important choice, and that is to either identify with our base instincts or with a higher spirit. Meditation introduces gaps in our consciousness, which allows us to connect with a higher spirit right now.
I promise to the world that I will meditate everyday for 20 minutes, starting right after I finish this post.
Peace,
I would like to stop focusing on my own personal success, and start focusing on helping others prosper. I promise the world, that right now my number one intention is to help others prosper, whether they join me in business or not.
In this life I have learned that learning is just about all, and how you use that learning to the end goal to be the reward.
I would learn more of differnce thing and use everthing I learn to better self.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would have to honestly be my relationship with God. The one thing I truly believe is that all the money and power in the world wont fullfil your true happiness. And I believe that thru him all my business vertures will prosper. The way I promise the world right now to improve it is dedicate everything to him, including my online business success. My honesty is setting me free.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
A. The one thing I would improve in my life right now is my commitment to continuously strengthen my desire to be true to my inner beliefs.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
A. My promise to the world is that from this moment on I will commit myself earnestly to achieving my innermost desire to help others identify and realize success for themselves and to use their success to help others.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be? It would be my self talk. If I am not absolutely vigilant I will catch myself speaking negatively about who I am and what I believe.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
The biggest thing I can do today is help encourage my daughter and son as well as their friends. They have a great deal of fear from what they hear on the media. It is only with encouragement from the adult in their lives that they can believe of the great future they will have.
I need to learn that I have to take care of myself first and make that my top priority. To that end, I will start exercising and eating right every day.
If I could improve one thing ing my life... and I can... I will increase my focus on accepting what is and amplify my gratitude and inner smile in celebration of life, love and everything. I can promise to notice what is often, say thank you and smile inside.
That which I would improve in my life would be the quality and consistency of my [i]awareness[/i]. This is the only antidote to our normal state of habitual unconsciousness - which is the nemesis of any attempt at any change.
Right NOW, I promise the world I will align my [i]awareness[/i] with my [i]intent[/i] for as long as I can. For a time, I will be free of the egoic belief that I can "make a change", or that I even know WHAT to change. Instead, I will leave myself open to BE CHANGED.
Thank you Mark! I'd dedicate more quality time my online residual income opportunities and take them to the next level! That means focusing on the success of my teammates rather than myself.
As we all create more success I will be opening a traditional "green business" that will be able to touch the lives of many across the country, in jobs, happy children, our economy, and helping the environment!
Was that 100 words?
Love & Abundance,
Carrie Gebbie
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
It would be my ability to focus and do and know my strengths. Possibly the one best thing I could do right now would be to find a mentor who would be brutally yet be compassionately honest and whom would have the skills to help me weed out the direction that best suits me for my financial recovery and future.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I promise the world I will write this response with an open mind and heart. I will also make a written list right now of possible mentors I could approach for help.
The one thing I would most like to improve in my life is my ability to see better what I am able to share with others to make their lives better and the courage to share those gifts freely.
I promise to slow down and focus less on what I feel obligated to do so that I can focus more on doing the things that I am specially designed to do.
The one thing to improve right now is my mindset to recognize that everyone is unique, relevant and they matter.
I promise to daily invoke The Holy Ghost for enlightenment of thought, clarity of the spoken word and above all, fire of love and purity in our hearts.
The thing I most want to improve right now is my income, supercharged via multiple passive streams. Many great things for myself, my family and the world at large will follow from this.
I hereby promise the world that I will run the survey for my first ebook idea today so as to get one of those streams going! Then I will put up my first content site for AdSense and affiliate marketing as soon as possible after. I will not give up - I will persist until I succeed.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now is improve visualizing and believing in what I want in my life.
There is one very strong promise that I can provide to the world to help improve myself and other is to listen to "The Secret"
Pessimism is a fatal backpack I carried with me all life long and which I have to change for a lighter weight. I stick a plus-sign all around my workspace to remind me of positive thinking - with good reflection to my sourrounding.
I would improve my health. I received a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia many years ago, but this year the pain and multitude of symptoms associated with the condition has disabled me.
I can promise to the world that I will RIGHT NOW to improve it stop being so angry. I will continue from there to stopping feeling sorry for myself and asking: Why me? There is no answer. I will take each day and spend time researching the problem(s) and I will take one action each day towards climbing out of the overwhelming black hole my life has become.
If i could improve one thing in my life right now that thing would be the relationship with myself. That relationship should be constant and not fearful, and it should not be flactuating and/or be dependent on the wise or unwise decisions others take with regards to their own lives.
improving one thing in my life would be to work when its time to work and play when its time to play. keep them seperate. my business would improve as would my personal life. the time I have set for these in my schedule needs to be sharply focused on the end goal and productive as well.
I promise today to play more, work when its time and stick to my schedule so no one and nothing gets left behind or forgotten. This will insure that our relationship with our children will be strong and solid, their grades will improve, our plants will survive, the house will improve in many ways, and in business: lives will be helped with nutrition and their health will improve. as well as monitary improvement for others. that is my job here on earth.
all will prosper today with my focus on what I need to when I need to in my schedule.
If there were one thing I could change today is a difficult question to answer as there are so many Important things in my life I would like to change. The one thing today would be loosing 140 pounds that is effecting my life so negitivly. I can promise the world right now that I will take my Osolean twice a day to help control my hunger and help maintain more lean. I promise that I will drink plenty of good clean water, exercise 30 min three to five times a week and make healthy food choises. I promise to stay honest with myself by keeping track of what I eat and measure myself once a week.
1) I would improve my management of time.
2) I will start keeping a written priority list.
The thing I want to improve most right now is my finances. I have moved out of the country to care for my elderly grandmother since my parents suddenly passed away. My husband is still at our home and I am here starting up a business to support us. So if my finances were better, then not only could I invest in the growth of my business but family would be together.
I promise the world that I will work as hard as I need, find mentors and support and do whatever it takes to create a successful business. Failure is not on option as more than money is at stake here, my family is on the line and I will not let that be sacrificed. Period.
To forget the military period of my life from 1968 to 1970 would be the greatest gift for myself.
To marry the woman of my dreams is what I an after now, all else pales when compared to her...
This one is easy for me. I'm already pretty happy. I have a nice family, nice house that we like, good area, I like my job, my wife's grandparents are about to come live with us. I can't think of anything I'm unhappy about! But I do have this goal: The most important thing I want to improve in my life is I want to eliminate the debt I just incurred building an addition to my house. What do I promise to do about it? I've already started:o I'm learning about internet marketing to decide how to approach this way f bringing in extra cash. (I'm reading a book I recommend: FL!P by Peter Sheehan. In chapter 1 he says don't study stuff to death--get off your duff and act!)
If? there was addiquite money in my bank account, needed to further my mailing contribuions to organizations. Hopefully I can help keep them working.
Conribute to purchase medical aid food for all the children that are homeless in our world.
If I can improve one thing in my life right now, it would be my ability to focus 100% of my thought patterns on abundance, prosperity, peace, and joy. In other words, focusing on everything that is good and being able to see the good in all people, situations, and circumstances. I can promise the world that right now, I will be aware of my thought patterns at all times and choose to accept only good thoughts. I will also agree to accept all of the results that I receive without complaint.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My ability to take my ideas and products and present them to the world in the most effective way.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will stop holding on to the things that I can contribute to the world that will help make an IMPACT and I will send them on their way. I have books with copyrights and many products that solve problems for people - I will release them.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Absolute surrender to God and Love to all and malice to none as Lincoln said.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Help others to realize their dreams.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My ability to accept who I am and who I'm not.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I'm going to sleep in about 1 hour. Before then, I will do 2 completely selfless acts to 2 people; leaving those two people touched, moved and inspired as they go to sleep.
I would lose weight once and for all. I would do this by not eating things that I should not eat and by exercising daily.
I would improve my level of acceptance of what is.
Oddly enough, or maybe not, my promise to make the workd better is the same- to betterf accept what is; ntil we accept what is, how can we change ourselves or the world?
The number one thing I need to work on is how to become an effective leader and to instill that leadership in others. I want to see everyone on my team succeed and I feel that I really can make a difference in peoples lives.
I will read everything on leadership that I can get my hands on. I also plan to attend as many seminars across the country that I can fit into my schedule. Not only will I obtain this information, but I will share it with my team and apply it to my own everyday life. Because as everyone knows people do as leaders do and I desire to be that example and to help others do the same.
The one thing I could do right now to improve my life is to follow through. My good intentions seem to rarely last more than a few days and then life gets in the way.
I am committing to myself to spend a minimum of one hour per day working soldily to accomplish my goal of the week. Starting by going back to the work I just left to check my emails....
1...I can improve the quality of my life
2... 2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
WELLL.. Im taking advice from Mark Joyner,thinking positive, giving to the community, reducing carbon emmisions and eating a healthy juicy carrot RIGHT NOW!! :) mpressive multi-tasking aye?... ;)
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To be able to have a clear vision of the battlefield: who I am, where I am, and why people around me behaves like they do.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
To maintain a conscious state of mind, by not getting drunk, not reacting "too quick"...
I will use my boundless energy to complete my flagship product/book/program and focus until I reach completion. I will use my rapidly growing list of resources to aid me in this goal, and streamline the process. I will delegate and outsource all the tasks that must be done yet do not need to be done by me. I will utilize my greatest personal assets and not spend my time and energy on things that do not move me directly toward my goal!
1. Be more focused on action rather than letting opportunity just pass by all the time and second guessing myself.
2. I promise to improve the world by showing them capitalism is not over by the creation of my own private enterprise.
1. Limiting beliefs is what I need to improve. Limiting beliefs are what prevent me from being all that I can be and create stumbling blocks along the way to success.
2. I have already begun working on this issue via self help tools such as EFT, Simpleology and other tools available and will continue to do so until the world is my oyster.
Thank you Mark for Simpleology as it has helped me tremendously.
1. If I could improve improve one thing in your life right now, it would be my ability to align with "source" (intelligent stuff, energy or creative principle that is responsible for life) moment to moment. I believe this helps me function in any circumstance in a way that is highest and best for all concerned (myself and others included). I've found alignment with source is a state of consciousness, awareness and presence.
2. RIGHT NOW, I promise to improve the world by continuing my personal growth while using my thoughts, words and actions in both my life and music to guide others toward healing and mending broken spirits (of their self and others), and finding wholeness through alignment with source.
The one thing I will change in my life is how I allow my spiritual development to grow allowing for all that the
creator/universe has to offer.I promise to the world, as my "brother's keeper" I will continue to promote my profound belief
that if one has knowledge of something beneficial to mankind, one has a responsibility to share that knowledge. I will stand as the beginning link, extending a helping hand forward. I will never look upon any person regardless of their status in society as any less than I see myself.
1. Eradicate waste thoughts and start doing what i have wanted to do. Take the first step right now and the rest will follow suit.
2. The only thing that i can do right now to the world is to be responsible in what i think,i says and what i do. All these will directly impact the life of many even though i am only one.
If I could, I would have more quality time for my loved ones.
I promise to the world that I will do what I can to make my young ones respectful adults. Children need love and guidance. I promise to spend more time with my babies and help their minds grow in a productive way!
I feel that it important to teach children at a young age.
The one thing I could do that would improve my life would be to increase my income.
What I will do right now to improve this area of my life is fully acknowledge that I am more than qualified to do the work I do and promote my business more effectively - now.
The one thing in my life to improve is ALLOWING myself to BELIEVE that I am ONE with the Divine Mother and that her Love, Wisdom and Abundance flow through me on a daily basis.
I promise the World to share my gifts and abilities with others, to assist them to Believe in themselves in order that we can ALL work together to achieve greatness in Love, Light, Laughter and Peace.
if I could change one thing in my life right now it would be to always be true to the person God created me to be.
I promise the world right now to give of my talents and gifts to improve the lives of those in my sphere of influence.
pray to have lot of ringing.I blind right now and i don't no who i i'm except Pierre it's me.When i received a tip from custumers that mean i do a great job and they are happy.I will keep praying to grow up more to take my retirement the fasted of i can.I have no choice to spend my money in marketing to have more custumers.RFight now i'm trying with websearchvisibility.com after 2 weeks is very poor i'm going to cancel next week it cost $500.00US/month i told the guy i have to make a minimun of $20,000.00/mon th for October i make $7,000.00. I have to find a better marketing and cheaper.
sincerly yours,
MR.EFFICIENT

The one thing I would change would be to work on the daily tasks I need to do.
I am a big picture person and the day to day stuff seems to slow down my process of taking by business forward.
Improving one thing in this dance of my life.....To awaken to knowing I am completely loved by Source of all Love. Rather than seeking to improve my experience, I allow myself to love and be loved. Receiving not because it's earned it but simply because I am willing to love and be loved for no reason at all. Moving like a dancer, not holding back or rushing forward, simply balanced in the step of the moment full of love.
My commitment: Set the intention to bring all of loving well,all of who I am to each moment.
To improve my own life I will take a moment or two each day to quiet my mind and touch in with that "one" who is my highest and best self. By doing this I will remember at least once each day that I am not my life, my body or my personality, but a creative force for good in the world.
To improve the world I have started to give more of myself and my talents to those who need a nudge, a model, a kind word, a hand up. I started today by volunteering 3 hours at the Obama headquarters! Next week I will accept an invitation to sit on the board of a non-profit agency that serves the working poor.
Thank You for this opportunity to remember why I exist.
1.More tolerant to others mistakes;
2.more love to those who are less loved
The ONE overriding thing I would change in my life is to become as much as possible AWARE of my actions, my attitudes, and my choices I'm making in life, because life as we know it is suddenly shifting and I realize I can no longer afford to sometimes drift unconsciously -- in fact I want to embrace the changes we're all going through, and through awareness truly LIVE.
What I can do now to improve the world is to move forward in the new venture I am developing, which is to show people new ways to be happy and spread this everywhere.
Whew. Ok, according to Mike Litman, you have to save yourself first, and then save the world. I'm working hard to save us...
My first contribution to the world is to donate 1/2 the proceeds of HighEnergyEating.com to a family whose mother just died of a stroke at age 47 with no life ins. Other contributions to the world will be decided as need arises I guess.

1. I will keep improving the way I use my mind in such a way that it will stabilize in a vibrant mode. In such a way that my body will have to always try to keep up with my vibrant mind which to me is the greatest form of excercise to keep the body young and vibrant too. A vibrant mind keeps busy creating good ideas and commands the rest of the soul to follow with the flow of doing good things, for example, helping others to realize their potential to become successful in the community.
2. I am promising the world that a vibrant mind is the way of the future because it rids the mind of a whole lot of myths, fear, and doubt that keeps blocking real knowledge/knowledge that matters or of the greatest importance in order to make an impact/ be kept alive in the spirit of life.

1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Every day is fresh and full of promise. SPIFE (Spiritual, Physical, Intellectual, Financial and Emotional) freedom - is my goal, nothing less. I have achieved many levels of this freedom, but the biggest improvement would come from realizing the Financial Freedom - that is what is most lacking.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will continue to follow my bliss by creating works of art, developing and marketing websites, writing articles about what is dear to me, helping others succeed, practicing kindness, and having the money flow because of my focused efforts. I remain true to myself believing I CAN make a GREAT living by being an entrepreneur on the internet and in my day-to-day existence; intent on living a life based on generosity and love, not scarcity and fear.
Start smiling.
Keep smiling.
To develop a wholeness of being that has the power to inspire others such that they should then want to seek for that same thing within themselves.
To meditate , to improve communication, to increase my understanding of spirituality, to harmonise mind (emotional, intellectual, & spiritual),body & nature
through various exercises.
1. If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be to stop looking in the rear-view mirror and making decisions and choices based on past experience.
2. To the world I can promise I am removing all rear-view mirrors and focusing on my Now and the road ahead and make choices and decisions based on my vision and targets.
I have been give 13 Spiritual Principles, and would like to share them with the world:
THE THIRTEENTH STEP
1. God is One Spirit, Whose Essence is Love, Goodness, Truth, and Beauty.
2. He is All Powerful, thereby removing all power from form and effect,
3. He is Everywhere Present and therefore present right where I am.
4. He expresses Himself as my Individual Consciousness, through which He manifests Himself as All Wisdom, All Knowledge, and All Power in every situation and at every single moment of my life.
5. He appears as my Perfect Life, when I first renounce the human belief in good and evil, and affirm that God is the Only Power, the Only Presence, the Only Law, and the Only Activity, and I am the expression of His Life in Time and Space.
6. He expresses Himself as the individual consciousness of all men, but this Blessed Truth benefits only those who are consciously aware of His Presence, and who are willing to experience His Life as their own.
7. He has no favorite religion, race or creed, but is the heartbeat of all men for all time.
8. He is Eternal and Indestructible, and, when actually experienced by men,
9. Destroys all sin, sickness, disease, lack, and limitation of any name or nature.
10. He communicates His Will and Direction to all men, giving specific guidance to each one of us at our point of need, but His Love benefits only those who can be still and listen for His Still, Small Voice, and who can summon the inner courage and will to see the Universe though His Eyes.
11. He flows as an Infinite River of Life, Light, and Understanding, through our individual God given consciousness, our minds, our bodies, and our world of affairs, and He uses our individual consciousness as His Gate,
12. Through which He appears as the substance of all harmonious from, and the destroyer of all that testifies to deceit and illusion, and
13. And, last, He shares with us all that He is, and all that He has, giving us His Name, I, and His Nature, Love.

1. There is nothing I can do to improve my life right now. I am perfectly positioned here and now to be and do. It's my choice to remain a part of the flow that reveals each next step easily and effortlessly. I am always in the right place at the right time.
2. My promise to the world is expressed in each moment through my being, breathing, and leading by example. I am open to help from seen and unseen forces that will help me strategically share who I am with the world through the written and spoken word.
1. I would improve my ability to stick to goals I've set for myself.
2. I can set a daily goal and use my Simpleology Web Cockpit to stick to it.
P.S. From a spiritual standpoint, no improvement is needed. But the human illusion prevents many of us from seeing who we are. I need to see God, present and active in my friends as well as so called enemies, and, finally, to over completely the belief in both good and evil, the original sin.

1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
A: My negotiation skills ensuring Win-Win in business and personal matters.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
A: Buy natural goods and refrain from PLASTIC.
The one thing I am working on to improve that one thing in my life right now is to learn to have feelings strong enough to be able to manifest abundance, more specifically more money than bills. In order to do that I must change my beliefs of lack, and other beliefs learned from religious leaders and parents. Only by improving myself will I see an improvement in the people around me. My goal is to attract more positive people, happy events and situation where I will feel at peace, joyful, and calm. Since I have been working on changing myself since 2004, I have seen positive changes in my family and grandchildren. The last part for me is to be able to "feel" more deeply. Since all my life I have buried my feelings, this is no easy feat, but if I want to manifest prosperity, I need deep, positive, happy, excited feelings.
What does that do for the world?
The more money one has, the more one can relax because the bills are paid. Also the more one can help with different charities or even individuals. It would also be nice to be able to afford nice gifts for myself and others in the family or even friends. I have always given my time to others and unfortunately all the money I could to the point of constantly sacrificing myself. Others took advantage of my not being able to say no. No more! I now understand that the underlying reason was that I wanted to feel accepted. Well I am slowly learning to say "no" and to take care of myself so that I can be happy and feel free in order for those around me to be happy. It took me a long time to learn the truth ... that I create my life intentionally or by defaut. Well now I wish to do so intentionally and get so much joy, peace, abundance, that I can just spread it around.
This is probably not what this post is about, but that is my goal right now.
The one thing I would like to improve in my life is my health. You can have all the money in the world but, without health you have nothing.
Taking Action/Follow Through
My greatest weakness which keeps me from achieving my greatness! In my life I have had many great ideas, inspirations, guidance and I often do not follow through and take action on them.
Commit to Write Daily for 30 minutes for one Month starting today (to begin with) AND share this with my 2 weekly Mastermind partners Sheila and Marifran and my coach Leslie and ask they HOLD ME ACCOUNTABLE for making this commitment and keeping it!
Thanks for the Inspiration to Take Action!! Writing always transforms my life!
Endless Appreciation, Morgine Jurdan
If I could change one thing, it would be to acquire abilities to find out what people want, gain their trust, and deliver it to them. This ability would not only bring money and prosperity into my life, and the lives of those close to me, it would also enable me to better make a difference in people's lives.
What can I promise to the world to improve it? The world is pretty good as it is. I wish I could show people that - to notice the good parts when it seems that everything is going wrong.
But what can I do now to improve the world? I will find a job, while still struggling to make a 3 digit income through marketing on the internet. Once my own financial situation improves I will not be in poverty - and that's a big improvement in the world. Furthermore, if I find a teaching job, I promise to be a good teacher and treat my students as important and worthy persons, and make them feel good and capable of anything they want.
For right now in case I don't find a job, and don't make money, I will still write stories that I hope will inspire people with hope and purpose. And I will still smile when I meet people; that, I found, does people more good than anything else I can do yet.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Totally trust and love myself
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Review daily how trusting and loving myself has honoured the world.
The one thing that I would
improve in my life is my inner drive that I had to go and get the things I set out to achieve, most things came easy when I had set my mind to it the jobs I wanted the Business I started, 2 branches of Service, physically fit, then a sudden anurism seemed to have took all that go and get it attitude. I didn't notice was gone but others did. I can promise the World that I won't quit and share what I've learned.
I think the most important thing I can do for the world is to cut back drasticallyon my driving so as to save our precious fossil fuels and to keep our air fresher and cleaner.
1. The one thing I am improving now is my ability to follow through and complete projects. The "80% existence" has been slowly killing me.
2. I am promising to the world RIGHT NOW to add just enough resources to decrease my level of tension from a frantic stress state down to the point where I can act decisively. All while not decreasing my tension so far as to drop into my usual analytical mode.
The results this week will include your launch bonus, a product release, and my dissertation proposal.
Thanks MJ for this chance to exercise my commitment and consistency!
If I could improve one thing in my life right now (and I can), I would become more loving. How? By asking how I can make the lives of others in my sphere more joyful, and whenever possible, doing it.
I promise the world that I will submit to the law of love, and share what I know of the goodness of God in every way I can.
I would allow more of the mind of Christ in me, His love and peace and joy so I could share them with others.
I will pray more fervently for the return of Jesus Christ to this earth to set up the Kingdom of God and to put Satan away so the world can really have peace and freedom.
What would I like to improve in my life?
Right now I am eagerly learning to manifest more peace and joy in my life - a never-ending pursuit.
What can I do for the world?
Right now I can share that peace and joy with everyone I meet, and everyone in my life.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be? I must get my focus clear and take action on those things. Indecision and dispersion undermine my progress.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it? Stand firm in what is inherently true and not be afraid to do so because of other people.
I would create a thriving business, outsourcing what I can to make best use of my time.
I would promise to the world to always give more in use value than monetary value. I wouldn't take for granted my relationship with my customers.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To be more assertive in life and grab every opportunity that comes my way. :)
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I would not make a promise to the world right now just to let everybody know of my intentions but I'll make it a day to day HABIT for myself to change gradually until I reach up to the day that I can confidently & deservingly say to the world that I am totally a NEW ME... ;)
The one thing in my life that can always use improvement is my marriage, since that's the relationship that means the most. Guess it's time to shut the computer down for the evening and go spend time with her... ;-)
1. Improve in my life: Continue to increase the profits of my business so that I may help more people (via hiring more employees), owners (via renting an office), business people (by patronizing their local businesses).
2. Being more present in each and every interaction with another person. Focusing on them 100% and not being distracted. Everyone is valuable and this is one way of showing it (and it's good business too).
Consciousness is the key to all permanent change. A higher consciousness, one of abundance and unity. One that is all of the qualities of the divine- a principle based consciousness.
1. I can but haven't improved my belief in self. Even though I know I am one with everything, I habitually hold back thinking I can't. This is a disease that afflicts so many. I can. the question is, will I?
2. Right now I promise the world to look at all the things I do not accept and work to accept them. Every weakness in me, every judgment I have of others. I accept what I have rejected. I love it, I forgive it, and I erase it. As I accept and forgive things inside me, it heals the world
Add JOY. Joy is love in action. The one thing I would do to improve my life in every moment is to be and feel the joy much more in EVERY action I take. Laugh, be joyous, experience gratitude for EVERY event in my life... (yes I mean EVERY event --)for then I will give myself the gift of being more fully present and thus non resistant to events previously percieved as challenges. I'll see the gift and blessing in them all... and I will raise myself into an even more highly vibrating dance resonant with a joyous life...
There is nothing out there,
Only me,
And I percieve
What I choose to see.
There is only Joy,
And love abound,
Create a vision,
It will come around!
What will i do right now to improve the world?
Smile and laugh from my heart not my head, (it's spreading.. watch out!!!) ...I'll be the change into Joy I wish to see, and thus send out my higher vibration to help raise planetry consciousness in the right direction :-)))))
... and take my young son for the most playful, silliest, funniest swim he has ever had with me. (He'll wonder what got into me!!haha)
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be my ability to timeline and systemize all my projects so that each task can be re-purposed for several interdependent outcomes.
I promise the world that starting right now I will begin to invest as much time in developing the system that will support the projects as I do the projects themselves.
Michael J Stone
The minds and hearts are precious gifts upon which the basis of human quality lives are chiseled and shaped from. The latent potentials are indeed worth mastery at!
To have that quality of thought, and an access to the power of my subconscious mind and heart – and having mastery upon them, if these could be considered things I could improve on – then surely, they will be my priorities for improvements worth investing at!
The latent happiness we’re pursuing is cocooned, all these whiles within ourselves – personal liberation becomes my priorities for improvements, and a promise I’ll like fulfilling right now!
1.To know my Self
2.To act from my Full Potential
If I could change one thing right now in the world it would be to find the secret to eliminating addiction to drugs, alcohol, food, abuse and any other damaging mind set.
I will begin now to research, read, and learn everything I can to make that happen.
I would improve my financial state, so I could do this faster...
I promise the world that today I will start "Lulu's Fund".
Using profits from my business, contributions from my customers and proceeds from fundraising events, Lulu's Fund will improve the lives of pet animals in my community by:
1-supporting spay/neuter programs in an effort to reach zero pet population growth
2-providing financial assistance, through local veterinarians, to senior citizens who cannot afford proper care for their pets
3-supporting organizations that care for abused and neglected animals
The most significant issue that I would (and must improve) right now is the loss of my cheerfulness, the most outward and visible trait that I always had and the one that displayed my blue personality. It was the the trait by which most people remembered me for, the trait which built my most casual sense of humor, but also the trait which I miss dearly.
Without my cheerfulness, I cannot exercise my sense of humor, which serves to relieve my stress, plus sometimes it inspires my will to meet new people to build sound and lasting relationships. Those new bonds can spread my beloved cheerfulness - a wave of warmth that can enable so many more to smile, laugh and possibly head in the direction toward true happiness.
From this most cheerful action, they just might step back and take a less serious look at our complex and problematic, contemporary world. Some people might just learn to smile at others again and learn to enjoy much simpler things. My cheerfulness used to spawn optimism in the most stubborn of pessimists, and occassionally even bring hope to some gloomy futures.
To be realistic, I can't change the world myself or even exert much influence. I have no super talents, nor do I have any monetary riches, or any power to pull the strings of the affluent. However, there is one thing I can promise to do right now that could become the catalyst for a positive global change.
This change could be environmental, economical, or sociological. The world is hurting in every realm of human endeavor and no matter what, the Earth will still adapt and survive. Unfortunately, we humans are no where near that resilient and it is our own species which will quickly demise from the worst resolutions of the consequences that our greed selfishly created.
What I can do right now is to gather and rally those good people I do know who do have the talent, power, intelligence and resources to start a domino affect of changes that will begin the formation of a positive new light. It will be the start of a new period of enlightenment of our very lost and confused contemporary society - a union striving for the pro-world freedom and liberty of every race and country.
In the midst of such a revolutionary philosophy, everyone should remember - laugh your a** off, at least once per day!
So in the beginning...
Dear Mark,
That one thing = Ignoring my past. I have been weight down with past experience. You know, voices in head, conditions to my success, comparing my worthiness to others. Now, I let go and do things to the best of my ability.
My promise now. I'm teaching everyone about this discovery so that it is reinforced within me. Then, I'm refining my goals to make sure they serve me, not my past self to get the clarity I need to achieve more.
To everyone and Mark...
Be Well,
- Tian Yan
1. What one thing would I improve in my life right now? The answer to this question is very difficult for me to admit. For nearly 24 years I have been a Catholic Priest. I was a good, but very naieve priest. Due to a series of very painful experiences, I have come to the realization that I must make a major change in order to be true to the God I love and the mission of my soul which is to be a healer and a guide who walks with others to a joyful life free of self limiting thoughts and needless guilt.
I honostly thought I was doing this as a priest until I realized that the Church all too often, and therefor I, use guilt to control more than using love to set free.
2. I promise the world and myself that I am from this moment forward dedicating my life's work to the original mission I was made for of healing with love and laughter. I know I am twice blessed to be given this renewal of awareness.
The one thing I would change about myself is my lack of discipline, which has affected every aspect of my life. My faith, my business, and my finances have all suffered because of a lack of discipline.
My priorities must be set straight, and I plan to put aside all distractions and start prioritizing every aspect of my life with written daily objectives that MUST be accomplished. After all, my decisions are now affecting my wife and my 3-month-old daughter, not just me.
I wouldn't change anything in my life now. It's not perfect, but it has dramatically changed already in the last few months, and I finally feel that I am congruent with myself. I will just continue to walk on my chosen path.
As for the world, I would do the same, I'll just continue to walk toward personal fulfillment, against all obstacles. The world change starts within yourself.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would improve my self-discipline, because that would allow me to better maintain my weight, be on time, and stay focused.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I can promise to work to improve interpersonal freedom, and remove the internal barriers that people place
on (in?) themselves, on everything from their communications with each other to their willingness to express
ther ideas or opinions. We are quickly becoming a nation in which we are supposed to self-censor ourselves,
and not say anything that might offend anyone, which is ridiculous as a) no one can know what will offend another
until the other person hears the comments and states whether s/he is offended by it and b) the most oppressive
slavery is turning over your own mind and thoughts to someone else.
The best single thing I could do for me is release myself from suffering, by remembering I am a spiritual entity having a physical experience.
The best thing I could do for the world is be a conduit for love and positivity. I commit right now to act on whatever opportunities the world gives me, to manifest this positive energy.
I would improve my ability to follow my heart and my resolve. Promise: to let my light shine and honor truth and beauty as the standard bearer of human potential.
I feel the chidren are our future and that attention that is given to teach them thru all sources of contact ( even a schoolbus driver) is a top priority in this day and age!!
To improve the world as it is growing, is to listen and provide unbiased examples of choices that they have before them. My goal to improve the world today, is to let our young people know that they can do anything in life, as long as the have a deep caring for those around them!
The one thing that I would do is to summon the courage to commit to total honesty, (authenticity). To be able to see the world and others without judgement and veils.
I believe that the world needs people who are alive and truthful. Who accept others and rejoice in our differences and similarities.
I commit right now to work to the best of my ability to remain true to my vision for a world of peace love and acceptance, where people can be honest and express their uniquenes without hurting others and without fear of repercussions.
Inner peace is what i promised to myself. The kind of peace that is evident, confident and deep to which my community will be affected with.
I promised the world, that true commitment extends beyond oneself. True commitment manifest in everything we do and say. In every single word we utter and action we took, should come the fulfillment of a promise. Our one and only judge is ourself, the only one who knows the truth and the only we need to recon with at the end of the day. If I want change to manifest in the world,I should begin with me.
Only One? Learn to forgive myself.
Starting right now I forgive myself for my past inability to actually get started.
The one thing I would improve in my life is to realize that the past is ONLY the past and does not dictate the future. And that the moment should be embraced at all times as opposed to worrying about what might happen.
And my promise to the world is that I will open minds to just that...open-mindedness and the willingness to listen and take in all cultures and perspectives without pre-judgment and ignorance. Integration is the key to advancement in all cases...segregation only makes things worse.
What would improve my life right now is to get my web site launched.
What I would do to improve/change the world, is to make everyone realize that despite of our differences in race, religion, nationality, personal belief systems etc, is that what we all want is really the same thing, to provide ourselves with the basics-food, shelter, clothing, and a little quality of life meaning, a piece of the pie. The only difference between us, is that in spite of all wanting and needing the same things, we have a different way of going about how to get it..and there is nothing wrong with that, as long as our methods do no harm to each other.
In the spirit of Kaizen, I will choose one small improvement. Today, it is to build a small bookshelf to hold my publications. This will keep all my own books in one place, instead of mixed in with others, and allow me quicker access to the info I want.
This one change will probably save me at least an hour each month of rummaging around on my desks, under my desks, in the living room, and among all the other shelves.
The one thing I would want to improve right now in my life is my ability to focus. I am someone blessed with ideas that could benefit humanity and improve my financial status tremendously. Unfortunately, once I start working on bringing my idea to life, any little distraction, and before you say 'Jack' the I have started procastinating and eventually abandoned the idea - and even start on another 'new thing'.
What I want to promise the whole world and especially myself now is that as soon as I submit this comment, I will shut down my computer,go to the bookstore and buy a new diary and notebook, list out all my projects (both abandoned and on-going), spend the whole of today drawing out a roadmap for myself. My computer remain shut - until I have a clearer view of my goals.
Thanks Mark, for waking me up with this post
My improvement is to honor my promise to the world! My promise to the world is to formulate a strategy for saving the world! The real problems of the world are all interrelated. The problems stem from a core of individuals predominantly in war equipment, drug. oil and chemical companies that control wars, famine, sickness and misinformation to the masses! They have created a world where quality of life is deteriorating rapidly and strangely enough even for those that are causing the problem. The solution is in real information and positive energy and the plan is simple but effective.
Wow, Mark - great questions! If I could improve only one thing in my life right now it would be attending to the needs of others. I'm blessed to have a full life with responsibilities for a family of three teens, a wonder-full spouse, an engaging online community and rewarding clients - not to mention fulfilling volunteer engagements. How do I become a better person that makes each and every one's life better? Right now, I can commit to being more attentive to the people I care about most. Thanks for making me think. :)
The one thing I should improve right now and from now on in my life is
My income!
I have been working on my inner life, inner game and consciousness for years. I am at peace and in awe of my potential and capacity for growth in all areas. As the awareness and clarity of my true north has been made a reality via the percessional effect of one small step after another has been the most amazing journey of my life. Since I knew what to look for as it was unfolding, I have arrived at that place of knowing that really big things are now happening. I only need to allow them and take the now obvious action steps to have it all. Its all in who I am being, and in how I am showing up each day! This is really getting fun to have the clarity of "Why", and finally have both the what and the how at the same time. The Money is getting to be more of game and the old levels of fear have been replaced with levels of challenge. My daily question lately has been: How BIG are you playing?
one thing to improve in my life right now would be to stop settling for second best.
I promise to the world right now that i will leave a life of mediocrity behind me and to never let it rear it's ugly head again. i will not only raise myself up but others also
1. Finish more projects. I am blessed to have many great ideas for improving my life and other's lives and I need to finish more of them. These ideas are not 'mine' and when I do not finish them I ignore the gift and deny my own power.
2. Finish creating my Compose Your Life blog tonight before I go to sleep. Hey, the universe just gave me an extra hour, I am going to put it to good use right now.
From the time I was an adult, pounds of money and pounds of weight have correlated in my life. Too many pounds of weight, have balanced too few pounds in the bank. When I have grown physically much larger, I have become much poorer. And I am in a potentially very bad unbalanced state as I write Ir I could change anything today, it would be to control my eating and spending habits, keeping two charts of daily intake and expenditure so that I can monitor them, becoming more focussed, organised and aware of the tasks in hand. I need to make more money and eat more healthily and do more exercise. In fact even before I had read your email, I had bought two charts to hang on my wall to start writing in daily figures from today in this regard. It is all about discovering ways of earning more money and managing it better. balanced on the scales by more pro-active organisation of my home, my diet, my exercise regime, and my positive attitude towards life.
It may seem selfish to want to focus on my needs, or lack of funds and abilities, but without self improvement, I am unable to help others, and as I work as a health therapist, this is an important issue.
If I could improve only one thing in my life then it is to strive wholeheartedly to help others suffering to change their Karma while grappling head on with my own karma. I firmly believe that there is no hardship or suffering that cannot be surmounted. Its only a matter of imparting courage into one's life.
I determine today to bring greater courage in my life and start living the life of a lionking.
1. I need to remember to always take time away from my quest of becoming a successful online marketer, to spend time with the very people I care about.. My family.
Success means nothing without someone to share it with.
It is very hard to pull yourself away from the computer and I need to constantly remind myself to take a break and spend time with the ones I love.
It also helps to get some excercise..lol.
2. I will promise to stop the waste I have in my life and to teach others the same.
We waste so much time, effort,water,food and take things for granted, while others have nothing.
We don't have the right to waste the life and necessities we have been given when others have suffered or are suffering.
Help them as much as we can. It all starts with giving of yourself.
Teach others this and the world will be a better place or at least it's a start.
The most important thing to improve in my life is the love for (to?) myself every second of every day in all I do.
It would certanly change my world, my business , my family, my relationships. And hopefully by chaneging my "smal"world a dommino effect would start and this change the world in ways far away from me- with me influencing just what is arround and in me.
Love is the key- and if everyone increases the love to themselves by 5% the world would be at least a 5% better world. How would this be? It would definetly make a huge change.
1. I would stop worrying so much about how people perceive me and start acting from the core of "who" I am in all situations.
I'd trust more in my ability to achieve success by helping others.
2. I'd promise to run my business and my life by the authentic core values that are closest to me. And dedicate my life to attracting people who share the same values.
What I would improve in my life right now would be my stamina and ability to heal and use my left hand until my right shoulder and hand are back to normal. I would also improve my ability to focus so that I could pull together all of the information I have to finish and fully monetize my new website to market both some of the products I have collected with resell or private label rights and my jewelry.
What I can and will do to effect the world right now is to recycle all of the kinds of materials that our garbage hauler takes and to put my bin out more than once a month. I will also up my level of participation in my lions club activities and work to get two new active and committed members in that club by the end of the lions' year in June. I will also set and accomplish short and long term goals for my Internet sales and marketing ventures so that I can purchase life memberships and sponsor Melvin Jones Fellowships to help treat and end illnesses which lead to blindness in both my community and the world.
Locally I will get well enough to be cleared to drive, earn enough money to upgrade my vehicle, sign on to help my fellow lions with school and community eye screenings, and endow scholarships to help non-traditional adult students as well as traditional graduating teens to go to college or get training as a firefighter, EMT, paramedic, licensed care giver, nurse or physical therapist.
1. I would improve and more clearly know the power of my dream.
2. I can promise to the world RIGHT NOW, that I will feel, in the core of my being, that WE are pure power and abundance, capable of all that WE dream of.
A1. I want to manage my time better and increase productivity
A2. I want to help underprevileged children have a better future - I'm doing it now by organising fund raising teleseminars for a children center in Kuala Lumpur.
The one thing that I want to improve right now is to have a better control of my time and myself with others.Having helped lots of people irregardless of their race or religion for the many years without complaining has made me thinking for the past few weeks why have I been helping them.I want to have my own time helping myself instead.I don�t want them to look down on me when their situation has improved again.I want to be a little more individualistic.
What I can promise to the world?
Having said that I want to help myself first before others, I know that whenever anyone requested me for their help, I will still help them without asking for favour.That is just me..The �me� that can�t be changed...sigh......I know I don�t have to promise to the world as I know I am already that person........What can I do for myself is a question which I don�t have the answer yet................Sad but true..
1. I have worked all my life thus far to know myself, to always improve myself, to meditate twice daily so as to bring out the best I have to give to the world in love and openness, to exercise and eat healthfully so as to respect my body, to learn how to work towards financial independence from mentors such as Mark Joyner, but if I had to say the one area I would improve I would have to say the area of COURAGE...the courage to actualize my true potential in love, in business and finances, in creating peace in interpersonal relationships and in the world by example and in any personal way I can to end poverty and suffering, especially among the precious children of the world. The courage to stretch beyond my comfort zone....the courage.
2. I promise the world that right now I will make a commitment to do my best to create balance, to do unto others as I would have them do unto me, to send out love in my actions and words, both in my personal arena as well as a world citizen, and, more specifically, to give 10% of my profits to charity.
...how intensely I engage with LIVING my Life!
I want to go to sleep each night knowing I've grabbed opportunity by the horns and danced over it. That if the Mayans were right and the world ends in 2013, I'd go down in that final hour knowing I'd wasted none of it, and there was nothing I'd left unsaid or undone that would haunt me thereafter.
Of course, I'm already taking steps. My current focus is on being BOLD and daring the things that doubts would normally hold me back from trying. I may not always get what I dare to ask for, but I'm having heaps of fun! Sometimes I even get surprised by a "yes" answer...
So Mark, if you want someone to liven up your club - count me in!!!
Crystal from www.crystalsquest.com
The most important thing I need to improve right now is my time management. I need to plan my days and time better to utilize most of the time wisely. God bless us every day with 24hrs a day and we should use at least 16hrs a day if you sleep 8hrs.
I promise to the world that I will sit for 1hr every day and plan my next day very carefully and as wise as possible with God Blessings in the following four ways, my self, my family, my work and for others.
I started for my self because if I am well and take care of my self I will be able to perform the other three much better, my family is the engine that motivates me to work and come home to see them and others because if I care for them some day some body will care for me or my family.
1) I remember to smile-this starts the loving flow of acceptance...
2) My promise to the world is to accept that the world and I are perfect just as we are at this very moment -and that is pretty funny!
(...and then I smile again.)
As it is true, in the physical realm, that you become what you eat. In the mental realm, is equally true that you become what you think…
You are your thoughts
Al Martin
If I could improve one thing it would be my ideas of this economic meltdown we are living in. Instead of looking at it as a dead end, think that every chaotic situation presents a lot of opportunities to prosper. What I will do Right now is to look for them and show the world that I will get the best one.
The first thing I'd like to improve is my health. I have been trying to do what I can (have lost over 80 pounds in the last year), but since the causes of my renal failure and peripheral neuropathy are unknown, I'm not sure what else to do.
I will continue to eat right, exercise as much as I'm able to, and try to lose another 10-15 pounds. Since kidney disease causes brittle bones, I've broken both hips and have osteoarthritis in my left ankle from a severe break years ago, so the exercise part of my commitment is very difficult for me. But I'm working on building muscle and hope that will help with the back and hip problems.
I would like to improve my capacity to appreciate the things I have been blessed so far, and come to the fulfilling realisation that HAPPINESS is Contentment and Gratitude.
If I could tell and change the world this little secret, there will be more abundance and the free flow of love. Then there will be heaven on earth.
If I could improve only one thing in my life right now it would be to bring balance to the way I think and act; go back to the space within where God resides, and not be bogged down with the past and the future but be fully in each moment without presumptions. I would like to become pure as a child and act from the space of love and trust without any preconceived notions.
2. I will promise to the world right now that I will try and be aware in each and every moment of the power of God and the power of now and make each moment the most important moment of my life.
As I say always - I have only one problem,what follows me all the time. Not enough resourses to acomplish my goals and ideas.
There are too much ideas in my head, they involve a lot of people, smart people, great people, big people.
But for that I need resourse (money,time and a lot of energy) With money I can borrow time and energy and make thing what can help other people in the world.
If I could consistently improve one thing, I would like to try and make the world a slightly better place each day.
Paul
1. Find somebody to love :)
2. Keep it positive with everyone :)
Reading the other posts above gave me some ideas thanks everybody :)
1. If I could improve any one thing in my life it would me my relationship to Myself by better remembering that God is not "out there" someplace but in me and I am a part of Him. This would change all my actions to a much more positive frame of reference.
2. I promise to drop all feelings of fear and scarcity and become thankful for all I have, which in reality is abundance.Then I will handle all interactions with others in a much more generous way creating win/win situations for the bettermant of all.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My Career path, for the last 27 years I have done the same thing being a Financial Adviser!
Since January I have realised that this is not my true calling. I need to help people grow and develop and realise their true purpose in life and how to obtain it.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Take massive and decicive action to change the course of my life and others by becoming a life and business coach.
I have already made plans which are slowly coming together to help me start out on my new path.
Live Life With Passion & Purpose!
Martyn
1) To get the knowledge about what I need to do, for me to absolutely exhaust my potential and achieve the rason why God put me to this world, and how I can achieve it.
2) What do I have to do.
- I need to generate enough passive income to quit my job instead of wasting my life in the office.
- I would start posting my blog entries in as many social bookmarking pages as i can to generate backlinks. I would also make daily blog posts related to my niche to atract more readers
For me there are two ways of answering your questions. The first way is to "improve" the "outside' world. Probably in some materialistic way. That could be fun. But as I was thinking of what that might be, I realized that the world is just fine as it is and I can't think of a single thing to change. No 2 answers itself therefore. Thanks, Jaye
Q1 Improve my life? Are you serious?
My life is already better than almost any human that ever was!!
Elly, perhaps you confuse Nisargadatta with Lord Byron, or was it William Blake?, "I think therefore I am".
Nisargadatta was more along the lines of "I AM, therefore I think".
It's not who you are, what you think, how you percieve, what you know, what you believe or what you fear or aspire to that counts, just
"That you are".
Or, in the more personal "That I am".
If you are NOT, nothing else IS, let alone means anything. Does it?
THAT you are is the basis of absolutely everything else. Pay great attention to it.
Q2 My promise is to get as rich as I possibly can, and use that money as effectively as possible.
Apart from what I'm already doing, the only thing I aspire to in life, is to have so much money that I can become a 'professional' philanthropist.
I hang out for the day that I fill out a form, for something or other, and somewhere it says 'Profession', I will put 'Philanthropist'.
It makes me laugh now, just thinking about it - how cool will it be when it's actually happening??
In the league of Bill G, Warren B and George S. Significant.
Nothing ostentatious, I'd rather be completely anonymous, just as long as it's also SIGNIFICANT.
Microphilanthropy, in the form of micro-loans, is making a huge difference to the recipients. And their children.
Don't just feed the desperate and starving, teach them how to make their own way and LEND them the funds to do it.
This is about empowerment, not charity.
When they pay it back, (as they almost all do), that money can be leant out again, to get somebody else going. And on and on. It's absolutely brilliant!
That's what I aspire to. Mark, help me, and you'll be helping thousands, and over the generations,...no kidding... MILLIONS OF PEOPLE LIVE A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.
What else is there?
Stay loose,
Bruce
I would improve my ability to focus with lazer intent on just one thing at a time. I'm sure logging in to Simpleology every day would be the solution so I'm exploring why I don't go there. In other words, what are the secondary benifits to staying stuck?
I promise the world that I will wake up to and express my own infinite genius, and in the process inspire millions of others to do the same.
A timely question!
Today I have decided to stand up for me, to make the choices that bring me joy and fulfil me, to embrace all emotions and express them in a empowered manner, and to use the talents I've been given and the skills I've developed to achieve my desires and intentions.
It has taken a long time to make this commitment to myself, and to be prepared to do what I know it will take to keep this commitment.
And, in a way I do not yet know, my promise to keep this commitment is the best thing I can do to improve the world I live in.
I will: Teach people how to quiet the negative "Monkey Mind" Chatter and live in a peaceful existence within their own quiet space. I want everyone to experience the peace and tranquility that I have since I learned to do this for myself.
I will: Create a seminar series to introduce this technique to as many combat veterans as humanly possible, and begin my quest to have the US Military accept and give them access to trauma recovery as soon as the need is recognized, rather than letting them languish in mire indefinitely, like the Viet Nam Vets have. This is my soul purpose, and I intend to do it with style.
Number one: I would improve (am improving!)my belief in myself. The belief, (the knowing) that I already AM that person who is capable of fulfulling my wonderful, audacious, scary dream of creating a magnificent Center of Possibilities where Humans and Horses Ride the Winds of Change!
Number Two: My promise to the world is to provide the ultimate environment where humans can explore, reveal and expand their highest potential for personal & professional growth, social awareness and collective prosperity. I promise to help others to discover their own emotional intelligence and life's purpose through experiential learning and coaching exercises that engages horses as mirrors to our human authenticity!
THIS is what makes me leap out of bed everyday... to make a difference in the world! ~Love ya' ALL and your amazing promises~ Schelli
My biggest wish would be to help define where I should focus my efforts. I see a world of so much opportunity I seem to get distracted from one to another.
My commitment to the world is to find a way to achieve focus. Because when I do I can put in place my big plan - to use and teach entrepreneurship and move people toward self actualization.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would stop procrastinating things I have and want to do.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
My promise is to do every day at least one thing with no delay starting now.
I have read tons of self hep books I have read tons of How to get rich books.
Each book I read is to help myself an in the back of my mind also to be able to help others.
But,here is the kicker,if I do not lay the book down an "change" my mind set or "get out" an do something positive,then all the above means nothing.
My "kicker" today is to "change" and "get out".
What better way could I accomplish anything?
1. Be the change I want to see in the world.
2. Live a passionate life doing what makes me happy and smile, enjoy laughter and love for as long as I live and breathe
In this life I have learned that learning is just about all, and how you use that learning to the end goal to be the reward.
I would use my time at the best for learning more
[b]If I could improve one thing in my life right now, what would it be?[b/]
It would be to strengthen myself so that i could help human beings to realize, that if be break free form the materialistic burden, we all would be spirituality united in the one goal to preserve our Earth for future generations.
We don't need money, we don't need careers, we don't need things, all we need is to be content with our selfs and each other.
[b]What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?[b/]
To be a stronger human and be able to hold on to my focus on the way.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Looking around me as I think, I believe in immediate intention... here it is, I'd order my room. So when I go out in the world I did it from a strong/orderly base. I humbly submit that this is profound.
There. I did it. Done. No more hypotheticals.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
oh, too late. I already did it. It's all the world. My room included. And now it feels like a theme I can carry into my day. Order. How/where is my attention brought to something with order that I can do. Right then. No big deal. Just seen and done.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
There is only one small thing that I am going to improve right now:
BEING MORE CONSISTENT TO MYSELF AND OTHERS.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I promise to think much more before i do sth that is not on the STRIGHT LINE for my goals!!!
Thank you MJ!
After going bankrupt some months ago, I quit smoking, started exercising, become vegetarian (including fish), stopped eating sugar and started following my dream of being a songwriter. I have never been happier, and I have lost about every financial asset I had.
My promise to the world: I will continue my quest of improving the happiness of me and people around me by taking care of myself and following my dream - thus having so much more to give others. I will start today by writing a happy song about going bankrupt - and what wonderful stroke of luck that has been.
I would change the way I breathe.
the one (two) things I need to do is to make plans ahead of time, and then follow through with them until completed.
I promise to focus more on the things that need to be done and then not get sidetracked until they are DONE!
The one thing that I can improve and am improving in my life right now is to every day be taking action in the direction of my dreams (paraphrasing Thoreau). I now have several coaches and am making myself fully accountable for achieving the goals and dreams I have set out before me, to get the life changing tools of NLP and personal development into the hands of everyone on the planet.
I promise the world right now that I will step up to play my biggest possible game in life and ALWAYS do my best.
1. See/focus the joy in all - what I/we focus on increases.
2. Appreciate the massive good intentions in all - what I/we appreciate increases.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
The outward showing of my inner strength to help people.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Select an action to demonstrate help to others as my number 1 priority every day.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
After living through the most difficult times in South Africa (civil war, extreme crime and poverty, racism, extreme social change and ongoing political instability) and acquiring a massive amount of knowledge, wisdom and practical application in the field of people management/counseling/conflict resolution, training and development and HR, I want to use my opportunity of a 1 year contract obtained by my wife, an expert virologist(Starting 1 December by developing an expert business site to market my dream with the help of an expert internet business marketing company in Canada) despite 26 years of austere conditions in SA to mobilize European organizations to contribute to my dream of setting up a number of institutes that will teach/mentor South Africans of all ages to be creative, think laterally and develop their learning abilities so that they can open small businesses and help themselves as well as their country.
This model I will then want to expand to all third world countries so that they all can become more independent from aid from other countries.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To be able to develop by means of expert mentorship a global thinking attitude and the necessary global skills, abilities and contacts in order to be able to achieve my dream outlined in number 2
Achieving my dream must be my legacy to the world, my struggling country and myself
The one thing I need to improve the most is my focus. My ADD helped a lot when I worked telephone tech support as I could deal with 4 calls at once. It doesn't help with my websites at all because nothing ever gets totally finsished.
As for making the world a better place, I'd like to teach people how to use "The Secret" to make their lives better. However I want to do it in a class or seminar type setting. Not selling anything at all, just teaching people how to be more positive, dream bigger and understand anything you desire can happen.
I am a mother, working women and wife - trying to balance and be good in all fields of life - and have been disappointed by my own helplessness and financial dependence. I want to improve my image of myself - accept myself and move on with life. I want to try and bring more happiness and joy to myself and people around me - and i need to cultivate a positive and strong mind for that. So I promise to take action and improve myself - whenever i get a chance.
I moved to read each of the postings. Your challenge has brought out the real voices of everyone.
1)I would connect my capacity to be effective in time with the people that I love. I find that I can get a lot done on my goals, but don't leave enough time for the "timeless."
2)My experience of finding the inner and outer path as a parent has been powerful and enlightening. My daughter started her life in China. We have had a seven year process to bring her and all of us into a state of ease and balance. I think our story is could bring new possibilities for adoptive parents with children having difficulties. I would like to tell that story.
1. The most important thing that has to change in my life at the moment is our financial situation which is DIRE!! I'm gradually learning to focus better and clarify how to do that, but we are running out of time and the debts are really building up. This is taking my attention away from more important things so I have to build up our income (I so want to do something around internet marketing - it's not that easy but I'm starting to feel like I'm getting there). Once thats sorted everything will be fabulous!
2. I know being so wrapped up in our finances is leaving me no time to think about anyone else and making me very selfish, so I need to put 'our finances' in a 'box' and once I've done all I can each day to change that, get my attention to the people around me who have much worse problems to get through than that, and help them anyway I can.
1. The one thing I would continue to improve would be my total belief that God has a perfect purpose for my life.
2. I have actually already started working to improve the world through a series of children's eBooks that help teach the importance of trusting God and believing that through Him we can not only accomplish great things but that we can literally change the world. The first book is in final editing and I am now writing the second book. After final editing, the first book will be launched along with my web site www.inspiringacts.com which will also include weekly inspirational messages.
The one thing that I can do to improve my life right now would be to get healthier. I promise the world, RIGHT NOW, that I will exercise daily and chew my food longer!
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
A. Continue learning and applying life's lessons
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
A.Right now is midnight, all I can do for the World right now is go to bed and sleep on it and hope to have an answer on the morrow
Hi,
I have done many wrongs to many people. The one change I would make is to forgive myself for the wrongs I have done and thereby be transformed into a forgiving person.
I can, and do, promise the world and myself to daily speak words of forgiveness about myself. Hopefully this will lead me to find other ways to become the person I long to be.
1.The one thing I would improve in my life is the state of my finances so that I can better support my extended family through troubled times and prepare a good future for my children.
2.My promise to the world right now to improve it is to treat everyone with respect, kindness and openness. Connecting with, and understanding people is perhaps the most important thing we can do as fellow human beings to make this a better world.
1 Take action more consistently.
2 Write my action list for each day at the start and work on the number 1 priority until it is done.
Cheers, Brian
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Answer: Earnings/Life style
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Answer: Dump my not earning websites and start anew but not the same way that doesn't work.
One thing I am improving this moment forward is my giving thanks for everythnig in my life at all times. I am clear about this decision.
I am calling out into the world "I AM GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE" I RAISE MY VIBRATION FOR ALL TO ENJOY.
Thank you, Mark, for making me focus!
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be my focus on being the woman I was meant to be TODAY, and working toward fulfilling my Purpose TODAY.
With a full-time CFO consulting job for a group of produce companies, as well as trying to get my own Financial Literacy company rolling (www.TZoneConsulting.com), it's hard to find enough hours in the day. It certainly doesn't help that I'm currently somewhat disorganized!
My "capital P" Purpose is to Lighten Life's Load for others. I do this by using my God-given talent for numbers and money to teach others simple ways of Managing their Money that anyone can do with a minimum amount of effort.
Simple financial literacy is a much-needed skill-set in the world today, especially with the recent financial sector meltdown. It doesn't have to be scary OR time-consuming.
I'd like to be able to formulate a plan for reaching and teaching (hence the "T" in T-Zone) thousands of people how to pull their heads out of the sand, take charge, and break through the boundaries that are keeping them from achieving personal prosperity.
1. lose 15 pounds
2. write a $50 check to the food bank, today, right now. (a habit I have added as I have been adopting Simpleology 102). . .done
1. If I could improve anything in my life right now, it would be my finances - to get out of debt, stay out of debt, and to have financial abundance for personal enjoyment and for the joy of giving back to the world more than I have taken from the world.
2. I promise to improve the world RIGHT NOW by sharing my message on how to "Eat and Grow Healthy" by presenting talks of inspiration, hope, motivation, and how-to's to groups, organizations, institutions, corporations, churches, and schools, and to individuals through coaching and information products.
The improvement that I would make is to pay off my credit cards. I recently found out that I am paying approximately $630 a month in finance charges.
The Promise that I make right now is to shred my credit cards. If I can't afford it with the cash I have then I can't have it.
I like to more happier by giving away happiness to others. Love the life.
I want to teach the students to be success in life FREELY to reach success by themselves.
1 - I've been reading various books, blogs and articles that have helped me refrain from focusing solely on the "What's in it for me?" factors of life. I believe I a am much stronger for it. Not in a physical sense but in an general "feeling" kind of way. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that I believe the more I focus on how I can be of assistance to others the more others come to my assistance. Strange but true. I've been practicing this "new me" for quite some time now and it's a refreshing experience that I'd recommend to anyone that is looking for a positive change in life.
2 - What I can promise to the world RIGHT NOW is that I will continue to help others without expectations, and share my experiences with them so they may benefit from the positive vibrations that result from our selfless actions.
The one thing I'll improve in my life is the one thing that I actually have control over... Me.
To that end, I pledge that I will continually improve myself mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually and any other "ally" I can think of. I will remain humble, look straight into the mirror and say "I know enough to know I have a lot to learn" - then I"ll go out and learn it. I realize that as I rise in station, others will look to me for guidance and leadership, so I will be the best possible "Me" for others to emulate.
If I could improve anything in my life right now it would be myself. I want to more trusting and a giving woman. I want love in my life. I have been working on myself for over 20 years now. I have read books, done workshops, retreats and also counseling.
I want to have a closer relationship with God and give him myself totally. I want to live my life from my heart.
I would say I would like to improve my life by having more money and be able to have anything that I would ever want and be able to help others. I know on a knowledge level that I already have everything but I promise the world right now that I will continue my quest to become truly connect. I am content with everything I just want more.
1. I would improve myself. I would be a better person, as divine as it could be.
2. Always work to increase my capacities and help the others to do the same.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be my ability to commit joyfully and unequivocally to my visions for my life.
What I can promise the world right now is that I will use the clarity and the power of the straight line rule to consciously cut through the circuitous paths I have been intent on following as a rambling wannabe; and in so doing, I will instill a momentum to my life that will inspire everyone around me just by my example.
What one thing can I do to improve my life?
I can spend more time making connections and seeking opportunities.
My commitment?
Make those thousand phone calls to get to YES.
Whatever it is I improve in my personal life right now - it will also improve the micro-world around me and in the long term the world as a whole.
So my promise to the world is: I will improve my life on a daily basis, step by step - focused on my goal.
Hans
First, I want to thank everyone who responded to this post. Everything I have read so far has been very insightful to me personally.
Okay, my repsonses to the questions.
1. Increase my self-confidence in my message. This one thing will lead me to trust in my creations, which will lead to an increase in income, which will lead to an increase in my ability to reach even more people with my message. This change will also allow me to create the personal lifestyle I desrie.
2. I am borriwng this from Gandhi - I am the change I wish to see in the world.
This means to live the message I am delivering to the world. I am consciously and deliberately taking daily action to be a living example. This post is one of today's promises. Opening up and sharig with a greater community.
I will improve my self confidence to a higher level, stop being afraid of things I should do to improve my quality of life
I will love to find my real purpose in life
The on thing I want to improve is my health (I have severe neurological Lyme disease).
The one thing that I pledge to do towards that end is to help others who are suffering - while clinging to FAITH - that I am healing.
I want to be less greedy stop worry about making more money. I will take more time to enjoy my family.
I will be good world citizen and contribute more for the society.
If there is one thing I want to improve in my life it would be my physique. Since I work from home I don't travel a lot like I used to. Its just me and my laptop and lots of chocolates of course:) I want to shred those extra pounds. So I'm going to do 10 sit ups right now and will continue to do everyday.
One thing that I want to improve in my life right now is my financial situation. I can promise the world that right now, I will be open to ideas and opportunities that will strengthen my financial security and I will work with diligence to remove limiting thoughts and beliefs.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now:
I'd double my productive capacity in order to release my new self-improvement/happiness course into the marketplace sooner.
What I promise to do right now:
Double my productive output and impose a deadline.
To do this, I will increase my output to a minimum of 4 hours of focused writing per day -- and finish project development no later than March 16th, 2009.
This self-imposed deadline will help keep me tightly focused.
Cheers to all value producers!
Daniel I.
1. Non-judgemental awareness
2. Meditate
The one thing I can do to improve my life right now is to focus on my health for without good health you cannot focus on the things that matter family, friends, and the ability to push towards bettering the things I can control.
What I can commit to right now is to focus on the future and not dwell on the past. I know that I must focus on the things in my life of which I can control, and to gravitate forwards and absorb all the knowledge I can and use it to better myself and others. To share these things is the true path to happiness.
I can improve on my patience in parenting. The world is filled with so much superficial activity, what with its electronic advancements and resultant information, that it is all too easy to raise a very savvy child lacking basic people connections. I won't lose sight of that responsibility.
The one thing to improve in my life right now is the financial resources to persue my life's purpose of sharing my message of Beingness and Oneness with the world.
I can promise to the world that right now I am totally committed to continue in the writing process. I am in deep and profound gratitude, peace, joy, and love, knowing that my thoughts, words, feelings, and actions are in alignment with the universal life force energy, allowing me to be energetically prepared to receive the necessary financial resources to follow through to completion.
One thing I "HAVE" to change is to...stop fearing man and follow Gods clear direction!!
If I follow what I HEAR & SEE as TRUTH/LIFE.... I wont take unnecessary steps that also make as a stumbling block for others....
Death/DECEPTION
The one thing I would improve right now is to focus. I have so many unfinished projects, I spend more time each day organizing and deciding what to do than I spend working on my goals. The solution - prioritze and just do it. Unfortunately, I am losing faith in myself making any lasting change.
1.PROCRASTINATION...stop it!!
2.Stopping '1' means i'd get through the 'general'
to the much more useful
'specific' stuff! (",)
The thing I want to improve most right now is to see God/Spirit in the person in front of me and show them the love and appreciation everyone of us deserves.
The promise to the world is that every day from today on I will move with even greater focus towards my big goal - which is helping other people to improve their lives on all levels, physically, mentally, spiritually, and financially. Only when everything is in balance, we can be at our best.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Pacing. If I could score or choreograph my daily life to have variety in its rhythm, I would alter the breakneck speed with which I rocket through existence. If, as I create my story on this earth, I could remember to write in a pause or two, vary the tempo, or set the shutter speed to capture minute movement, then my life might become a poem, a dance, a photograph that honored the lives and environments around me instead of tearing them up as I barrel through them questing for my own meaning.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will be present in this moment - NOW. In doing so I will give full attention to this thought, this word, this action. Full attention will prevent me from causing thoughtless injury, will assist me in performing at my highest capacity, and will allow me to interact with all beings in a manner which uplifts, respects, and encourages.
One thing I should improve right now is to stop procrastinating and wasting time doing things that will not lead me towards my goals / purpose.
I promise to take small consistent action towards improving my life and helping others.
There is nothing to improve and nothing to change. I just want to truely open my heart all the way to feeling, listening and following God within.
Divine peace, compassion and following my soul purpose. WOW! Hot stuff! Exciting life!
To overcome my fear of failure. I recently lost my job due to layoffs and I'm having a hard time finding a job due to current economic condition. Throughout my working life, I have tried to learn many things, i.e. real estates, stocks, online business, and yet, I never start anything substantial and I keep holding on the perceived security of a job. Now, the security is gone. I will figure out a path to take and take immediate action and to know that failure is just a part of a process and to know that what's important is to take action!
***What is the one thing that I would improve in my life right now***
The one thing I CAN and WILL improve in my life right now is my committment to achieving Financial Security.
However let me point out.... that whilst the money will be great and the attainment of financial security is something that I am, and indeed we all are striving for.....FOR ME - its not just about the money or the security - IT IS about the journey and the person that I will become getting there.
Continual growth and learning, investing in myself, my collegues and my Family along the way.
I will not let it change who I am, the way that I treat people or the beliefs that I hold dear, rather I will continue to grow and be moulded into a far better person who acts with integrity and passion.
I have just begun this journey and undertake to follow through on my committments/promises to myself and those around me.
""You don't live your life in a vacuum, the things you say and the things you do, profoundly affect everyone around you - BE the change that YOU wish to see in Yourself and indeed the World""
Thanks to Mark I have an opportunity to break the long established pattern of laziness and fear which enables me to think about things and not act. We each have within us the answers to our problems because we are the creator of them. Peace and joy can be ours and we can share these gifts with the world as we give love and loving thoughts to all whom we meet. By these actions fear will be left behind. I have just done the one thing that is my first step to making a difference. Writing this blog Love and blessings

"This is my entry for the Simpleology KaizenClub.com contest"
I would want to live in the moment at all times so I could give everyone I touch my complete self and be more in focus of the things I need to accomplish.
To improve the world I will promise to give boundless love to everyone I come in touch with and accept people for what they are, giving them my all.
I promise the world today that, I will publish my written words of thoughts, that all the world will benefit as others already do.
I will focus on a strategy in order to gain financial freedom. Success in this I can help and support others, my siblings and their siblings.
The one thing I would improve in my life would be to exercise greater control over my inner peace.
This would be my platform for controlling many other ailments such as: procrastination; self-doubt; fear; harmful addictive habits; anger; clinging to the past, and the list goes on.
I will then be freer to keep focussed on each issue in the moment and proceed in a straight line to achieving my blessed targets.
I promise the world that as of right now, I'll begin to improve it by slowing down, reaffirming my commitment to physical exercise and better eating habits, and very importantly, practicing better breathing techniques.
All positive results will follow as long as I'm operating from that peaceful base.
1. Stop hesitating/procrastinating and finally act on what I know I can contribute.
2.Write a book that explains in simple language with the aid of graphics our (human beings) structure and our link in the creative process. How the universal laws (like Gravity and nature abhorring a vacuum)work for us and against us. Basically that there are no secrets when your perspective changes.
One thing I can do to improve myself is to OBEY. Obey GOD's Commandments.
I can promise the world that my faith in GOD will help someone.
How could one stop procrastination? How could control his destiny? How could one have the perfect romantic love?
How could one build real self esteem?
The "One" is me, looking at the child within myself want him to grow, ready to take responsibility right now!!!!!!!
I would improve my alignment and congruence with my goals to help people bring their dreams out onto the Internet. When I actively align my Higher Purpose, Identity, Beliefs, Capabilities, Actions and Environment each day, I stay on point and accomplish more.
I promise I will finish my book on the above subject and get it out to people. Alignment is the key that unlocks all the power, talent, potential and capabilities you have within you.
The thing I want to improve in my life right now is to improve my relationship/have more quality time with my wife and kids. I believe I have to make more money in order to do this comfortably, but I also realise I can choose. So right now I promise the world that I will quite simply get off this computer, go and read my kids a bedtime story and then focus on my wife's wants and needs. Bye for now and wish me luck.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
1. I would awaken the giant in me.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
2. Have faith and trust in me as before and put one foot in front of the other and keep going and touching peoples heart along the way.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now, it would be my wealth, so I PROMISE the world that I will always embrace a wealth state of being from RIGHT NOW.
Fist thing I would change about my life right now is: Myself, I have a negative way of seing myself as someone that always want to make everyone else happy except myself,cause I dont think I deserve it.
What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW is to love myself enough and be big enought to say no when I dont want something or dont agree with someone else actions.
The one thing that I would like to improve in my life right now is my financial situation. I make a promise to the world right now that I will work with focus and determination to improve my own financial situation. In order to make a good living from my creative work and be able to support animals welfare projects with funding.
Right now i would like to improve my connection with me because it's the root of how i see and how i create the world.
I promisse myself that after this words, i'll feel my breath everywhere and talk to me consciously that everyting in life happens for to make me feel good! I'll develop my extraordinary ability to make time stop! :)
From the heart,
Thank you.
The one thing that I would improve right now is to recognise my own success. To many times I feel that I am starting from scratch and feel I need to lift myself off the canvas and climb the massive mountain yet again, instead of seeing that I had had success and I just need to take another step today, not the whole mountain.
To the world my promise that will make the most difference to my life and that of my loved ones would be to give up alcohol becuase it is my failure and has never contributed to success.
the one thing I would improve right now is to stop thinking only of myself and come back to believing in the power of cooperation.
The one thing I can do now is to focus on prayer and my wishes for the world. Simple gratitude for those things that are improving and for what will improve is so powerful, and so easy to manifest.
The one thing in my life I would improve right now is my business savvy. I'm about to launch a beautiful little Law of Attraction tool that people can use to quickly and easily increase their energetic vibrations.
I promise the world that I will complete the design of the last little component right NOW, and that I will launch this product within two weeks.
Thanks for the opportunity to express my intent. Now, back to work . . .
If I could improve only one thing in my life right now it would be to act, breathe, walk, think, feel & talk according to what I know I should be doing, thinking, feeling, saying, implying...
To start as of today to live my life full on, no holding back to "not hurt anyone's feelings" (maybe even mine actually).
Bridge the gap between my internal reality & the shared reality we all live in on a day to day basis.
Actually do, be & have all that I know I can do, be and have. Take the training wheels off and start living life to the fullest.
2. I promise to the world right now that I won't make any promises other than the one(s) I promise to myself.
As of today, I'll do all in my power to manifest my heart's core desires and align my actions with intuitive awareness + (shared) reality based feed-back (real world results).
Thankfully,
Sylvain
I would develop a life and business plan and follow it religiously so that I may achieve my dreams.
I promise you all and the world that I will develop a plan covering my Personal, Family, Business and Health goals. Participate in a thirty minute coaching session on planning on Wed 5th Nov 2008. Develop a software program to help people plan, in a JV arrangement, so that they may also achieve their goals.
Stop wasting time reading books and browsing the net for new ways of improving myself. Start doing something about it - now.
The world needs more people who believe in it. I promise to be someone who is capable of doing (no, actually WILL do) just that...
I would definitely improve my financial situation. Also try to help more people especially young men or boys so that they wouldn't have to go through the things that I went through growing up without a father. I do promise the whole world that I will go forward with the attitude that whatever I do to better myself It will include others in trying to help them through messages in songs being that IAm a singer/songwriter, artist that paints, IAm also writing a book also IAm an inventor and will use my skills and talent to help other people in the world realizing were all in this world together what's good for me is also good for other's Thanking and praising Almighty JEHOVAH GOD in JESUS CHRIST name.
On self-improvement, computer-eye fatigue is probably my biggest single obstacle. A month ago, I started a course of vision therapy that I'm hoping will address this and allow me more time at the computer.
For the world...I've been fortunate to actually achieve some change in the world, but there's far more to be done. four years ago, I launched an international Business Ethics Pledge http://www.business-ethics-pledge.org to create a tipping point where Enron-style business will simply become unacceptable. There are steps I can take to build more momentum, and in the next few months, I will actualize at least some of those.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
It would be MYSELF. It's that simple - thank you Mark for making me see that clearly. It is only me who is responsible for having the life that I have, and still me who can make the move to towards the life I want - thank you again Mark for giving me the tools for that.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I PROMISE that I will have the patience and the perseverance to go step by step on my way to success
I would want to improve the flux of energy I know I have to the world and make an impact in which both parts would become stronger every day. Rescue my real self from an inner prison and bring it to the place it deserves. As it's said, you need to help yourself before you can help the others.
In order to achieve this goal I'm going to start thinking positive over every event of my life happening from now on. That way, I'll be able to build up good energy that I can use for my purposes so my imprisoned self gains confidence to break out from its confinement.
The great philosophers have differed in their opinions as to the purpose of life. It should be obvious that the God Who gave us life is most qualified to also give us its purpose.
Jesus said the greatest of all commandments is that we are to love God with all of our heart and soul and mind and strength. I believe if we do this all else will be well.
Continually changing my love for Him to a greater love is the change I want to make.
I promise the world I will pray and meditate and live for this purpose.
WHAT I MUST IMPROVE RIGHT NOW:
1.Never doubt even for a moment what you desire!
2.Believing you already receive what you desire
3.Not to worry about HOW to Realize your desire
4.Let the inspirec action take the lead
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be to spend more time looking at my belief systems that hold me back through the powerful modality of Theta Healing - discovering your sub-conscious blocks and clearing them. I struggle with the ones that bring up the most emotion in me. In other words the things that will allow me to clear out my biggest blocks.
To do something really constructive to improve the world I would put myself out there more to help other people with clearing as I wish to do for myself for I am a teacher of this modality and do not make myself available for this by my small minded thinking that someone will judge me for my strong beliefs in this very left of centre but perfect choice of career for me.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be myself esteem.
I promise to the world that I will love, take care and beleive in myself the way I do all this things for everybody else.
My commitment would be to live my life. For too long I have frittered my time away. Looking back and realise all I do is talk and talk but never do any action. The biggest changes in my life have happened over the last few months and this was due to coming to the conclusion on making small changes and gradually working up. I am now stalling. I need help to take the next step and fufill what I know I can be. I don't want a mediocre life. I have so much to give but I'm not "there" yet.
It would be staying connected with my spiritual guides and purpose at all times. I would be able to hear The Holy Spirit speak while doing ordinary daily tasks. I am doing Spiritual Exercices to refinine, tuning in my vibrations to resonate with Spirit. Without Spiritual Connection we are machines. I find when I am Connected I have Syncronicity and a Soul Perspective on life.
Which gives me everything I need when is useful to me and lets me be wherever I need to be when the time is right. Then I focus on life tasks and divinley guided.
As Ralph Waldo Emerson says, health is the first wealth. I am overweight and that could impact my health. It certainly affects my energy level, and thus my ability to work on other things in my life as well.
I'll start envisioning myself as healthier, since it all starts in the mind. I'll also start eating healthier, and continue with my new-found habit of going to the gym daily.
If I could improve one thing right now it would be to help someone improve their life. I will promise the world my contribution to help in whatever way I can.
Sticking to a plan and finishing what I start. Everything comes back to that. I have got a few massive things starting and they will be lifechanging as long as I stick to the plan and don't get distracted.
So today I'll make my short-term plan for the day keeping in mind the longterm plan for the future. And I'll do it.
My favorite saying:"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb discussing what to have for lunch.Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote."I am 57.I have always wanted my own business.However the "Wolves" in my world, ie,my thoughts and the people with whom I associate have told me to forget it.Just be happy with a pretty good job.Well life has almost passed me by!The one thing I need to improve?Change my associations.Both my own thoughts and the people who give me counsel.My promise:Not to giveup.Ever.Then teach others by example!
1. Experience the full state of enlightenment permanently!
2. Continue to develop myself and help anyone along in the process!
To be completely free of ego so that my heart and essence would be infinitely released to fulfill the purpose and passion I was created with.
To see change in the world it has to start with me. This means I must be willing for change, realizing it comes from within and only by desire. Even I can not change me. I can only be surrendered to change and I confirm that change has already started. I promise to allow love, peace and happiness to flow through me and be contagious, infecting all I come in contact with. Let this be the Pandemic Cure that sweeps our world. If God can make an Ass talk, He can start a Pandemic Love Virus through me.
Hi Mark,
Here are my answers:
1 - The thing I could improve right now is my physical health.
Your body is your temple and I've put a lot of focus on my mental condition and now need to do the same work on my physcial health. I've already started and results are good.
2 - I promise the world that I will keep my mindset positive and generate as many positive vibes as I can to add to the global pool of thoughts and bring the positive impact of that up to help others have a more powerful source to tap in to.
Regards,
Andy
1. I would let go of being caught up in the personalities of the people I interact with, and the seeming complexities of the situations I encounter. I would see the light of Spirit at the heart of each person and the simplicity at the heart of each situation.
2. I will act more in congruence with my inner connection with the love that underlies all of life, and encourage others in this opening.
The answer to both questions is the same.
Right NOW I can "improve" my attitude by focusing on LOVE and GRATITUDE.
Guess what! According to Dr. Emoto this is one of the most powerful actions I can take to heal the waters of the world. Water is the "life support system" of our planet.
(Read interview here:
http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/nov1/cwater.htm)
How much of my/your body is composed of water? (More if you follow Mark's advice!)
In truth, the separation between you and the world, between me and the world, is an illusion. "We are the world."
LOVE and GRATITUDE.
The one thing that I am improving right now is my health. I believe that if a person gets their health to be the best they can, they will react better to other people, have a happier outlook on life and be able to contribute more positve things to this world.
As for the world, I am doing my part to improve it by sharing my experiences with my Lord and Savior. Hopefully, others will understand His love and want to share also.Pass it on....
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Focus. The world is at breaking point with information overload. A way to wade through all the crap would improve my life immensely.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Unsubscribe from at least 75% of the blogs, feeds and email lists I belong too.
I would like to keep my focus, decisions and energy on my goal without compromising my vision due to criticism, self doubt or distraction by other opportunities and strategies.
I will focus on the strategies and tasks that I have planned to pursue. I will strive to become proficient at these methods and eliminate the ones that aren't a part of the plan.
I will not let self doubt or family members' impatience, affect my belief in my ability to achieve my goal and I will remember that it will benefit others.
I will not be sidetracked and buy into opportunities that could bring faster results or could compensate for possible failure.
I will remember the depth of passion that this goal has aroused and the emptiness that I will feel if I betray myself to appease others again.
I will acknowledge that I am uniquely qualified and effective in my profession. And my success will not only benefit me but others as well.
1. If I could improve one thing in my life right now, it would be to find peace and joy in all my circumstances, regardless of their outward appearances. In that way, my love for my family and for humanity will be more evident.
2. Since I cannot hope to change the world without lighting my corner of it, I promise that I will deepen my prayer life so that I see each person through the eyes of Christ, Who loves each individual beyond all measure.
(1) LOVE MORE: Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
(2) FEAR LESS: Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you do suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear what they fear, do not be frightened. But in your heart set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect. Keeping a clear conscience so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ will be ashamed of their slander. It is better to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit.
1. I would have the concentration and self-confidence it takes to complete all of the projects I have set up for myself, all of which lead up to a bastian of Human Evolution, the AIP (more on that later on).
2. I will write up a clear vision of the AIP in completion, and begin a backward plan to this very moment. I will complete this by the end of next week.
The one thing I will do to improve my life... I will listen to my own voice above all the others because the answers I seek are already inside of my heart and as good or better than those I seek outside of myself. I can trust my inner teacher and God to give me laser instructions to live life on purpose and with mission.
What will I do right now to make the world a better place? I have already stepped out of the boat and from behind the curtain of fear and judgement and put my heart and my voice into the world to empower and inspire women to become the woman they were born to be. I am already in action, using my gift, touching lives. The world will be better when each of us is doing our fair share in the circle of community around us where we do have influence instead of waiting for the perfect time, to be perfectly equipped, or to get it perfect. We have to start where we are, right now with what we have.
Sharmaine
If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would completely remember and embody my relationship with my God-self.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will meditate on the sacred heart within myself. This meditation will remind me of my pact with the divine to bring about world peace. While in meditation I will beam out love, acceptance, forgiveness, calmness, trust, serenity and everlasting peace to all beings.
What I would improve about self is to learn to live as if I was dying within the next 30 days. Build better relationships and do the things I always wanted to do such as write the book I want to write.
For the world I will continue to pray daily for the conditions of our nations and its leaders Peace.
The one thing I will improve right now is the value association with me brings to others. I understand the value I receive is directly proportional to the value I provide for others.
I commit to leaving all I encounter with a sense of increase and advancement. All will feel supported in their quest for more.
Right now I would improve my self Discipline and the structure of my life. I can promise the world that starting this moment I will right down my goals for the upcoming week, and what I want to get accomplished each day.
If I can Put a million dollars in my bank.
Right now: I raise my hand to agree with all those future millionaires like me to do everything that needs to do to get that success soon.
1. Manage my time
2. Build good relationships
1. To stop living in regrets for all my failed yesterdays, forgiving myself and freeing myself from the past so I can be fully in the NOW. To love the person I am today, embracing what I see in the mirror with love and respect. To live in gratitude for all that I do have and know that I am doing the best I can and that I do better everyday as I learn to love and accept myself more and be open to my greatest good.
2. To do all I can to be #1. therefore being a positive energy in the world instead of a negative. Allowing me to be of help and not a hindrance to the people I meet along the way.
1.I will never judge anybody and for any reason, including myself.
2. I am a living instument of LOVE and service for others.
1. If I could improve one thing about me, it would be overcome even the last bit of ego and pride.
2.My aim is to spread the knowledge where it is lacking.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
If I could be more focused and complete the things I start, then I would really be more effective. I really have a bad attitude. I get bored easily and never complete the things I start. :(
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I can try to stop starting work on new things until the old stuff is complete. But I am a little restless to actually do it. I need new stuff in life. I buy many books, but have never completely read one. But I can try...
1. I will improve my self- thoughts on everything in my life experience.
2. I promise the world around me that I will always find and focus the positive aspects of a person/situation, no matter how 'bad' it is.
1. My finances. I am producing my album at the moment (my dream is to win Grammys for my songs) and am coming up with some challenges to raise the money for the recording budget. I have a website which is still in the design stages. The idea I have is to ask people to buy my album before it?s produced. My vision with my album is to show people that ?Anything is Possible?, if you choose to do it! I have been working on this dream for 7 years now and I?m past the ?if? it will happen I?m at the ?when? now.
2. I?m going to do something that is a bit bolder for me to do and ask for your help (I?m not good at asking for help) Mark, to help me spread the word of my website and concept. I'm not asking for someone to just hand it all to me on a silver platter (although that would be nice) but for people just to take a look at my idea decide for themsleves if they like what they see... :-)
1. I would improve my self-discipline.
2. I would do it on a daily basis, beginning with smaller challenges and moving towards bigger ones. I would evaluate my progress every evening in a diary, and doing larger-scale reviews on weekends. Actually, I have begun this process to form a habit, and I can promise to the world to persist on it
1.I would improve my project management skills, in order to stay focused on my goals and get rid of all unnecessary doings.
2. I promise to the world to help people to get rid of their debt by teaching them how I did it in order to be free of debt in a short time. I will start to do this from now on. It will make me happy if others in the world could experience financial freedom for example by applying the law of seed and fruit.
1. War, conflict, clashes, hostile meetings, inappropriate force, conflicting stand-offs, face-offs on loyalties, and even plain foul language. The whole spectrum of man pitted against man preventing solution to severe crises like ecological and financial debt or hunger and disease.
2. The home is the institutional block of all modern civilization. The ocean is built from individual water droplets. World-scale conflict bubbles up from unresolved experiences at home. Believe today’s media/internet can be powerfully leveraged to reach into the heart of 20bn people and draw out goodness and wisdom hidden in homes more easily than seeking peace via bigger organizations.
1.Obey my inner voice which I do believe is the Holy Spirit ,as promised to us if we ask our Father in Heaven daily for the Holy Spirit.
2. Listen to that inner voice now and not muffle and drown it out with countless distractions.
Thank you, Mark, for your so generously sharing!
Hi ,
1- if I could improve one thing in my life , it is my ability to find my whole competencies (physical & mental power) and the way to activate them and apply for myself and other people I could communicate with them to enhance their positions of mind (that's a way towards better life) and enjoy themselves...
2- I promise to the world that every one will be as importatnt as the others and every body will have the opportunity to use his/her abilities and enough training for gaining profit and relief (this principles will be authorized :every one will be given as much efforts he will do and should be responsible ..
Believe in myself and cut out the self destroying negative thoughts.
To make this happen?
Set real goals, use my simpleology 101 and 103 - Replace negative thougths with constant positive affrimations. I don't want to have to work on myself but until I do this I cannot truly help others and properly self-actualize.
The one thing I would improve in my life is my trust in God. What I can promise the world that I will do, is to constantly keep my heart open to God until I feel assured that I will reap all that I have sowed during the last six months, since this will benefit all.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now, it would be my financial situation.
To improve it, I promise to the world right now that I will resolve to do the best with whatever is available. Take action anyway. This will give me the confidence to find and utilise additional resources — even when it initially seems like there are none.
I will help others to look for the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit that exists even in the worst situations. See the other person’s point of view (customer or neighbour) and figure out a way to solve the problems they face. My own fortunes will improve as a result.
This, the first day of the rest of my life, begins with taking action to thank those who have encouraged and supported me during my wimpy, self-centered days, and to take action to contribute to the welfare of those that I know how to help and connect them to resources that I know about. Time to act.
I can improve my mindset to focus posivtively, and start working seriously on being everything I can be. One cannot improve just one single thing -- it has to be complete, a unity.
I can promise that it will happen from today.
I would definitely improve the ability to let go of FEAR,in all kinds of ways.
I think that pretty much all of the problems in a human's life,come down to fear.
Fear of what other people would think of you if...
Fear of what would happen if you choose to...etc.
My promise to the world:
From now on I will keep on encouraging myself to keep my head in the NOW,because there can be no fear when you live in the now.
Fear appears when you think about things yet to happen,or things in the past.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
It would be financial aspect of my life .
I have done a lot wrong with my money ,may be say mismanagemnt of my hard earned money.Due to mismanagement of my money I am now suffering a lot which I feel like never able to regain and totally ransack and mad.
so I am going to imporove my money management for a better future for me and for my comng generation.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I am visioning for green money management for my coming years.I will also take help if needed from professional financial consultant and take classes on wealth management also.Even will try to inspire my colleague/my business associate to think on this matter and pull them to go for wealth management.
If I could improve one thing in your life right now it would be to have a better ability to attain more wealth, in all its manifestations.
What do I do to make this happen? Look to JFK's 1961 inaugural speech. I can't save the world but I can save one small piece of it as can/should everyone!
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
The one thing that needs improving.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Right now to focus my intent on inner peace in the hearts of all living beings and commence breathing that intent and will that a laugh so big it envelops the consciousness of all on the planet starts now.
The first thing to improve in myself is fear. Not fear of failure, but fear of success.
I promise to help others to own their own house by educating them on their opportunities, and success will be metered in small quantities, one at a time.
I will lose this unwanted weight and have control over my body right now.
I will start recycling more, drive the smaller car, and teach my kids not to waste water, elec. etc. and help the less advantaged if they can.
1. For the world, there is one thing for me, that is primary above all else right now. My goal is to educate the world as to the importance of saving our oceans. Water is life, without the healthy & abundant life of the ocean there is no life, period. By being the beacon that I am, I will change the world.
2. For my family, I will continue to be a beacon of love and peace, to light the way when they forget what is most important above all else, love & peace for ALL mankind.
The one thing I could improve right now is to stay focused and I will do that by only doing one thing at a time and to stop multi-tasking.
The one thing I would love to change in my life right now would be to love myself and accept myself as I am. Until I am at peace with myself I cannot be at peace with the the rest of the universe. For now I can do something unselfish for others and then convince myself I am a better person for it.
I need more education.i mean want to go for my master program and more certification.
To get this done i just have to work hard now and get money to move ahead. preferably study in canada for a better education that i think i need.
Q1. The most important thing to improve right now in my life is the CAPACITY TO SET HIGHER GOALS for myself, my significant others, and my business?
Q2. In order to improve it, I can promise to the world right now that I'd learn and expand my mind and share with other people my best ideas and strategies to increase our awarness for higher goals.
The greatest personal improvement I could make right now is to believe that I CAN achieve any goal that I set for myself, with God's help; and to ACT AS I BELIEVE.
My promise to the world is that, after providing for the needs of my family, I will give back to help make the world a better place for children, especially those who are the most needy and disadvantaged. Because, if we do not love, nurture, feed and educate our children, then this world has a very bleak future indeed.
1. I would improve my belief system into a deep seated, unshakable, inswervable belief that no matter what, I will experience the personal, professional, financial and lifestle success I desire.
2. I will begin by making a list of reasons why this belief is right and proper.
Self-Improvement:
SIMPLIFY my personal environment by returning to BASICS...what really matters...FAMILY, FRIENDS,FOOD from NATURE, DAILY EXERCISE, RESEARCH,
Intellectual Curiosity...even a simple drive to ABUNDANCE to SHARE with others. Move away from mass commercialism,consumerism
corporate competition to simple individual decisions.
WORLD-IMPROVEMENT
As a teacher, my goal has always been to teach. It's time to teach SIMPLICITY...simple HEALTHY LIFE MAPS to SECURITY and FULFILLMENT. I have already published ebooks and slide presentations about simple, "grassroots" home businesses and powerful phytonutrients.
The #1 thing I need to do is change MYSELF & not my wife. I need to love myself unconditionally, first,then I'll have a better perspective on our relationship together.I promise the world that I work at this daily, and will take another course of action to succeed,right now. Its hard, but I know it'll be worth it!
The one thing in my life that I would like to improve has to do with my health. I have been told by my doctor that I have hypertension and high cholesterol; also I've recently had an angioplasty for the precursor to arterioschlerosis, a condition called renal stenosis. So, even after the surgery, I still have to take pills for hypertension and cholesterol, and the pills wreak all kinds of havoc on my muscles and other parts of my system. Matter of fact, right now me and the so-called cholesterol-reducing pills are not getting along at all. So, what would I do to change things right now? Stop smoking. I'm going to do it this month.
1. The answers given to Life.
2. Restructaring myself in a new way.
I am improving my life already by watching the mind movie I created as a result of watching The secret video. This is working already and I feel good about myself and my family all the time.
My goal is to keep watching and benefiting from the change in my attitudes a form of continuous improvement.
You can see the movie here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqqK2cJRmNo
Improve: Overcome, defeat my Habit of Procrastination.
Promise: Endeavor to improve current personal state of affairs so as to become a more respectable and admirable human example.
Humbled by some of the grandiose poatings I have just read, my offerings seem but small and simple but they are sincere.
The one thing I would like to improve on in my life right now is 'serenity'. To achieve unflappable internal peace and serenity no matter the outward influences.
Promise is a big word. I don't want to put down a long list of things I'd like to change or offer the world that I may or may not be able to deliver. One true promise I can make is to smile at everyone I meet. A smile is a sign of warmth, acceptance and friendship; small treasures that are sometimes scarce in our modern world but often make a big difference.
If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be? I am thinking positively about the US, as well as my own personal life. My focus is on what I can control; learning from the past; planning for the future; remaining present to present moment. Fear, panic and negativity have no place in my life.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it? Stay focused on what I am accomplishing; use my talents and gifts to the best of my ability; be of service to others.
The one thing I would do right now to improve my life is to stay focused on my goal of having an online business devoted to environmental awareness and green living as my contribution to saving this planet from total self-destruction and to stay connected to my divine ability to create and manifest joy, abundance and love every day. RIGHT NOW,I promise to banish all negative self-talk, fear and doubt and to steadfastly pursue my goals.
1) I don't have the freedom to do anything I want. I can't help the rest of the world, for I have got myself into $100K of debt and need to create some sort of higher income.
2) Once I have dug myself out of my financial abyss and have stabilized my financial world, I will enjoy financial freedom for the first time in my 66 years of life, and will then begin to focus on giving money and time to others who are less fortunate than I am soon to be. I have to "unplug" whatever it is that is stopping money from coming to me.
Mark, thank you for this question & challenge. It forces me to think and I realize that the reason why I am not as successful as I would like to be is my lack of focus. You have designed Simpleology WebCockpit for that purpose and yet, I have not utilized it.
I would improve on my ability to focus by utilizing the Simpleology WebCockpit. From now on, I promise that I will start my day with the WebCockpit.
To be successful in Internet Marketing, it's not enough to pick Mark Joyner's brain; I also need to work as efficient!
The one thing I would improve right now in my life would be my energy levels. I believe, with energy, everything else can be achieved.
I promise to the world that from now on, I will be more mindful of all areas through which I lose energy. Thank you Mark for creating a forum to publish to the world.
1. The one thing I would improve right now is my financial situation. I know this sounds so shallow but it's a bit more in depth than it sounds. True I want better financial health for my self. But in addition to that, I really do want to help people in need and even more so, animals. And that is pretty difficult to do without money. Yes, one can volunteer etc. But it takes money to really make a difference even if it isn't millions. For example, I am aware of a park in the city that is over run by ferral cats. What I'd like to do is set Have-a-heart traps to capture them, have them spayed/neutered by a vet then re-release them. The purpose is to slow down and eventually stop the reproduction of suffering cats. And who knows there could be recently abandoned cats that are still friendly enough to find homes for.
2. What am I doing RIGHT NOW. Well obviously at this moment I'm writing this and Mark, I now see the importance of this. Thank you. The other thing I'm doing is, I'm on my way out the door to mail a check for Pet-sitters insurance so that I will be able to conscientiously start a pet-sitting business. I'm experienced in this going on 5 years and it's time for me to break out on my own.
I believe the single most important thing for me to do is DISCIPLINE.
- DISCIPLINE to work on what I really want from life.
- DISCIPLINE to stay focused on what I am doing right now.
- DISCIPLINE in applying the skills of goals planning to myself on a consistent basis.
I would focus on being the best I can be Spiritually, Emotionally & Physically and I'd insure that I gave to others.
Each day I review my purpose of optimizing my life and work to achieve this.
I would change my attitude and thoughts about money.
(I'm working on it - getting rid of the negative and increasing the positive).
I promise that every day I will say to myself that money is a tool. I am open to receiving it and will be grateful for all money flowing my way and return it to the universe.
To procrastinate less. To have a stronger desire to take action.
I am having a hard time promising something to the world to improve it. I know it is up to me to take action to make it better but this is what I struggle with.
The one thing in my life right now I change would be the inability to hold in my mind the condition desired and affirm it as an already existing fact. I promise to let positive thoughts destroy negative ones so I can achieve health, wealth and love and return each to the world in kind..
1. re-evaluate in order to Build, improve & strengthen relationships.
2. Stop limiting God & start seeing a new picture of myself.
Develop an efficient system to transform my creations into highly effectively marketed products and services for my business.
Start asking myself before I start a task how does this fit in my overall plan.
Thank you for this opportunity.

One thing that I want to improve is my mind. If I obtain Godly wisdom and knowledge in my life. It's like the statement, give me a fish...Show me how to fish, then you feed them for a lifetime! So I would improve on renewing my mind and gaining wisdom! Then I can not only truly change my world, but I can truly change the world of others as well!
If I could improve one thing in my life right now, it would be the results I am currently getting in my life. I promise to the world that I will motivate myself to create the plan I need
RIGHT NOW in order to achieve the results I want, go after my dreams and achieve my goals!
I would improve my focus... as a kid, I loved a couple of things, or chose a subject, and pursued it completely. As an adult, I've become sorely scattered.
I will master a cornerstone piece of software at work, helping to launch a small company and the principals vision.
Stop thinking about what I could do, start doing.
Close "open loops" -- when an idea strikes either take immediate action or schedule a specific time for action
1. I would be prompt and punctual for all appointments and engagements.
2. Prepare myself now for my activities tomorrow instead of when I wake up in the morning
1) I would continue my work to love others more and judge less.
2) I have a vision of hosting large public conferences in which specialists in the fields of human potential, business development, personal finances, physical & mental health and HOPE will join together for one night to INSPIRE people to achieve personal greatness. Even if each person in the conference made only one change in one area of their life, it would be like a pebble in a pond, and the ripples could create a revolution. I am actively working to make this vision a REALITY and continue to point out the positive in the world to nearly everyone I meet.

If i could improve one thing,it would be to have" a focused mindset of abundance"this would keep me from allowing the internal and external distractions from taking me off tract.this awareness would increase my ability to manifest my goals in all areas. I can promise the world that that i will improve my awareness and ability to manifest.i will share this knowledge and help the people that i can.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To focus on one path to put my energies into to succeed.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will decide on the path, focus my efforts and act to succeed, seeking a mentor for guidance.
The message the universe has been delivering me lately is that helping others to fully do the thing they were put here to do, is the thing *I* was put here to do.
I'm already doing that for a living, but it's easy to lose focus, waste time, play small, get caught up in a scarcity mindset.
1- So the one thing I choose to improve is to be living with that as my focus and intention in *every* moment.
2- My promise to the world is to have at least one conversation every day that helps someone get present to what they were put here to do.
1. The most prominent thing I would like to improve in my life right now would be my ability to give unconditionally of my time to help my fellow man.
2.I would like to promise to the world that i will endeavor to make myself available to help people whenever I see some one in need.
If I could improve just one thing in my life it would be to have better clarity of my wants.
I am a person who loves to add value and lead by mentoring and helping others.
But what I miss is the part where I ask for what I want.
I am successful in spite of this flaw. I could be free of worry without it.
So I promise the World that - without changing all the good of who I am - I will clarify, ask for and claim what I want.
The most important thing I can do for myself right now is to stay in the present moment. This is the time when I can be fully aware of what is, open to it and not be afraid or judgmental, for they spring from projections into the past or the future. When I act from, and in, this place then my action will be congruent with what is and who I am.
To be wholly myself in the moment is the only way I can improve the world, so my promise is to train myself to stay in the present moment.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To have a positive effect on everyone I meet each day.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will focus all of my energy on creating peace, acceptance and harmony in the world.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
The one thing I would improve in my life right now would be my financial situation so that I could provide a comfortable life for my family. Also I would love to be able to allow my parents and my in laws to retire early.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
The thing I can promise to the world I will do is to continue to raise my children to be honest, trustworthy, helpful and generous to all.
The one thing I would improve right now in my life is living and making strengthening decisions that show integrity matter what.
Kaizen is about small steps. Right now I am going to return the banana's that I have taken out of the fruit bowel from work to consume at home and go buy my own from the grocers. No more freeloading as I have been doing lately. Otherwise, it will escalate and snowball into a much bigger issue that goes beyond taking fruit.
Right now, I want to improve my productivity in doing the tasks that define "harmony at home." I promise to the world that today, I will "always be employed in something useful" (B.Franklin). The actions that I do will be visible right now to those I live with.
I have to admit, the one area in life that needs improvement is my finances. I promise to the world that I will cultivate a mentality of abundance and not of lack, that I shall foster a spirit of gratitude and that I will open my eyes to opportunities instead of dwelling on misfortunes.
1. I will improve my relationship with everyone I meet, right here, right now.
2. I promise the world to be extremely slow to anger, very fast to forgive, and to provide maximum kindness and assistance to everyone I meet.
The one thing I would like to improve in my life right now is my financial situation. Once this is settled, I will be able to walk away from my "ball & chain" J.O.B. and fully concentrate on what I enjoy doing most - helping others.
Through the sales of my newly printed personal journal "Reflections of Gratitude" I am planting trees to give back to the environment. The Earth is a beautiful place, and we take so much from her and rarely seem to give back. In turn, the people who buy the journal will become more grateful and realize this is a great place to be and how much we really have. It's not about the material things, it's about what's inside you.
The one thing I would improve in my life right now it would be my gratitude awareness. I am blessed to be living at this time,in this country, with the relationships I have and the awareness and knowledge to become the best me.
To improve the world right now,I can think, be and act what I want in the world today, peace,understanding and love.
1. I will improve my patience.
2. I promise to the world to be nicer, kinder and more gentle and forgiving to everyone I meet.
1.) Definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. Change means going out of my comfort zone and do what's needed to get the results I want.
2.) Have big dreams and be grateful. We live in a world where everything can be chaotic. Over time, we forget to dream big. We are living to survive instead of living towards a dream. We stop short at being “comfortable” instead of working towards good to great. We forget that in order to have more, we have to be grateful first. I change my life by: http://everydaygratitude.wordpress.com
The one thing I would improve would be my kindness towards others.
I've already started.
Please vote today.
I need MORE TIME to do things that are important so I can also take time to enjoy life! I can promise the world that I am DEDICATED, steadfast, and patient in reaching my goals. I think everyone needs more time to enjoy life and I would be delighted to have that opportunity to help others relax and rejuvenate mentally and physically and to get organized so they could also accomplish more for themselves.
I would improve my skills at remembering we are all spiritual beings having a human experience and to honor each person's spiritual growth to unity consciousness; therefore react to each person and experience with compassion and love.
Right now, I will improve the world by going out to Vote for Change! And then holding space and participating in a prayerformance honoring the birth of a glorious new tomorrow full of love, light and compassion.
The one thing I would love to get accomplished as soon as possible is to have my business less dependent on me (goal: 50% improvement in 60 days).
And what I promise to do right now is start working with a new model, based on ads in semi automatic sites. Have been thinking about it for a long time...
Thank you for another inspiring push ahead lesson!
I just came across this a bit accidentally and was pleasantly surprised by the content of the answers...wow what a questions...
so therefore I will have a try at it..
Well whatever your condition is, I thought, it starts with you, and that of you that has a power over the rest of this "you", so your mindset.
It must be a mindset that gives you genuine power -not a thought of weakness and limits.
With that power you can start working on your weaknesses and limits to transcend them.
So for me it would be the work itself and creating this limitless identity for yourself and with that, being able to contribute to the realations with people that you have.
Ultimately creating a life of value.
Thanks for the question I'll start fresh today,
Jorke netherlands
I would improve my Focus. Focus on doing one thing at a time and I specially need to focus on myself, because I am always thinking and helping others, but never myself. I promise the world that I will help myself first from now on in order to better help others.
1. I would expand my personal community and the reach of the vision I'm working on and standing for.
2. Dedicate myself DAILY, through systems, expanding reach, and uncompromising diligence to manifesting in reality the vision of working with and building leaders who are transforming the world.
I would let go of the fear to be in the unknown. When you are uncomfortable, it's because you are learning. However, most tend to give up when it gets hard which hinders your continuous improvement as a person. Never get comfortable, never give up!
I promise to the world that next time the fear and doubt appear, I will dig in and work harder, work smarter and not stop until I have achieved my goal.
Focus more on Lord Jesus,
to get direction and guidance in all I say and do.
For the world, I will care
more for my immediate
family, friends and
associates.
Peace,Love $ happiness.

The one thing I would improve in my life is not to falter with my vision nor letting the negative voices, real or imagined, also known as fear, trip me up.
My promise to the world is that I will stay focused on my mission of improving the lives of our young by teaching them and allowing them to emotionally express in positive ways which overrides my fears.
I want to know myself and be sure of myself, because that's where it starts, from us. Just stop all the second-guessing and fully trust in the decisions I make.
I'll countinue being me and hopefully make people happy because that makes me happy.
1. I would remove procrastination in my system as well as my inability to stay focused on my goals.
2. If I want to change the world, the change should begin in me. From now on I would practice by heart the five laws of Simpleology specially the first one which is the law of straight lines.
If I could change one thing in my life it would be to manifest greater financial abundance. Having the means to keep learning, healing, teaching and experiencing more pleasure in life is crucial and these activities shape the depth and breadth of my contributions to this world. I also think it would help me to create a beautiful, Loving relationship/partnership with an amazing man who shares my vision and desire to help others. : )
The way I can translate this immediately in the world is to feel considerably more peaceful and open to the wonderful learning invitations that so often come my way. What I have learned, I share with others and always will (Purpose). I think I'm pretty good at it and there is so much more to learn/share that would be uplifting.
Creativity flows from softness -not constriction- so the constriction of "lack" cheats the world of many gifts...gifts like just being a vibrant, open, Loving Being on this planet, working to end poverty and poor living standards, projects that inspire and move people...there are just so many worthwhile projects waiting in the ethers!. Yes, we can focus on helping others but the change needs to start at the source first: "Be the change you wish to see in the world." (Gandhi). I continue to work away on my own strength, courage and vision - and am committed to helping in any way I can.
Thanks for the opportunity to share! You do good work here.
Be Blessed.
Nancy
1. One thing to improve my life Invest more time in learning what God's will is for my life.
2. Promise to do right now This promise is to God, not the world, in that I will learn His word and apply His ways in my daily actions. I want my faith to be recognized not just by words but by my actions. I am here to serve, not to be served.
The one thing I would improve is what I focus on. Dr Dimartini says, "Your values (the things that take the majority of your focus), dictate where your money is dispersed." Hmmmm ....
Ghandi said, "you must be the change you want to see in the world". I can see that if every person did that, the world would be very different to how it currently is. The change I want to see in the world is for everyone to accept the differences between peoples and cultures and to stop trying to "fix and change" them. So, that's my promise - to become a good listener, acknowledge others and give up trying to fix and change them.
I made a video - http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=_jYX5sTnxy0
The one thing I would improve upon myself is accountability to what I promise myself I will do and achieve, in terms of Financial independence.I promise to help as many people as possible to improve their lives, which will indirectly help me to become Financially free.
The one thing I need to improve on is FOCUS.
I let too many meaningless external issues affect my ultimate success. My first improvement needs to be better focus on my religious beliefs. I believe that this step will ultimately lead to my idea of prosperity which is financial security for my family and to increase my giving to the future or our country (our youth).
The one thing I would improve in my life right now is to feel love, to think love and to act love. In everything I do: toward myself, at home, at work, in my personal en work relationships. Only by acting with love and honesty true success will come.
I can promise to the world that right now I will start loving myself! By buying myself some beautiful flowers, a nice bottle of champagne :-) to celebrate the new president in the US (I live in the Netherlands, but I think he is a leader for the whole world!)and feeding the birds on my balcony. Because acting on your thoughts and plans begins with small steps!
If I could improve one thing, it would be my mind. My desire is to have wisdom to know and do the right things all of the time and to be true to the person God made me to be.
The one thing I can give to the world right now is unconditional love.
I would improve the love I have for myself.
For over a decade I have allowed hatred, anger and negative thoughts to consume my mind. No wonder I lack in focus, desire and love for others.
I am learning that when I love myself first, then I am able to love others. How can I love others when I don?t even love myself?
I promise to the world that I will improve my self-love by telling myself "I Love Myself."
I promise I will do this everyday for 15 minutes, and 30 days.
Scott
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To become more focused on my "Inner Wizard" work. It's life changing for me and my clients and readers.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Advance the concept of hope with the reality of those techniques that create personal improvement via both the actions of Kaizen and the exponential shifts that are possible with understanding of your "Inner Wizard."
I will do when I have decided on a course of action rather than only thinking about it.
I commit to completing the tasks I deem important and letting my actions speak for themselves.
I want to improve Self-discipline.
And I promise to start my day by giving some time (30 minutes to 2 hours) to the most important projects in my life.
I made this video - http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbt172vbJEs
enjoy :)
PS I got the aspect ratio right this time - ha uploaded late last night
I would change the job I'm performing, or change jobs completely. I'm a small business owner(10years), with one employee(I've had many, many), and need more. The business(insurance agency)is so complicated that most can't do what's needed, or won't, once they learn the job. I'm so covered up with paper work and required documentation, and other service that there is no time to produce.
I commit to never giving up looking for the right employee. Continuing to persist in the attempt to work ON my business, not IN my business. And developing, and improving systems for training & managing my business.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To connect more - smile at strangers, share my life, touch your life.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
To connect more - smile at strangers, share my life, touch your life.
1) To start meditating
2) By improving myself now I am helping the world by becoming a better, more positive person each day
Improve my phone skills and sales techniques.
Make more phone calls.
Change: I want to LIVE!
Promise: I promise to LIVE!!!
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Answer: Be more present
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Answer: Be more present
I know this is the only life I've been given, I need to understand that and do what it must take to experience life in all facets. I wish to use my sight, hearing, sense of smell, touch, and taste to fully embrace the beauty in all that surrounds me.
I promise to you all that I will continue to celebrate the differences in all of us and with my hand in yours, I promise to face the change of humanity, together.

2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it? - I can promise the world that I will work on this focus process by planning my days in advance and evaluate them afterwards.
1. If I could improve one thing right here, right now it would be my ability or chance to stimulate your interest to the point that you will give me one of those hours of your time.
2. The one promise I can make is to share those things that I have learned so that others can be spared needless pain and suffering. "I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; I will not refuse to do something I can do." ~ Edward Everett Hale
The focus on authentic satisfaction is best for oneself and everyone else.
That's the best answer I have.

2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Continue to remove items from my home and donate them or trash them!
Hi Mark,
1.Take Positive Action
2.Take responsibility for my role in the world
1. I would like to improve my control over my personal situations work, relationships etc..
2. I promise that i will be mindful of the impact on the environment I have whether big or small. It's evryones world not just mine.
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be my stress levels. I have financial stress, relationship stress (especially around family) and business stress. My time is not my own and I often feel at the end of my rope. I need time to breathe, to re-focus, to move forward. That would be just excellent.
What would I promise to the world to do right now to improve it? To smile more. To not pre-judge others. To share my gifts with those that can use and benefit from them. To help others realize the potential that lies within themselves and the abundance that lies externally.
1) Right now Mark I would like to mostly improve my concentration span to focus on the great changes that I know will help our future understood children...
2)My promise that I can do right now to change the world RIGHT NOW, is to teach and share my love!
I know exactly what I need to improve in MY life ... I need to commit virtual suicide.
I have procrastination stagnation; a combination of information addiction and action paralysis.
That BIG jump from (top) of the "millions" of digital and document pages of wisdom I hoard will end it all. Is the "ANSWER" that will jolt me out of my stagnant condition and take ACTION somewhere in there? Who knows!
I promise to end the life of this virtual loser and be re-incarnated as the successful manifester I know is lying dormant; ready to succeed.
the one thing in my life i would like to improve upon is my attitudinal approach towards things in life. Because i blv dat a truly positive attitude helps in going a long way in helping any individual to achieve their full potential.
From this day onwards i promise to do my utmost best to achieve this feat.
Cheers
If I could improve one thing in my life right now it would be to finish what I start. I am learning to take one step at a time instead of trying to eat the 'elephant' all at once.
I promise the world right now that I will empower 5 million people to find and fullfill their purpose through Health and Fitness.
#1The first thing I would improve right now is my focus and sticking to the steps towards my goals. It seems so odd to be writing that since I often help other people do this: take vision into action. I think I lost "my way" (read, my way that worked for me) when I switched from working in large organizations as a team leader/manager to working from home by myself. It's unbelievably difficult for me--and that's hard for me to admit.
#2The one thing I am able to commit to which will help the world is reaching out to teach, coach and mentor anyone who wants to learn what I've learned, and learn it with a friend at their side who intends always to hold the compass and orient in the direction we are going.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My health. It's been a hellish year, filled with problems that have held back progress in so many other areas of my life. Investing in my health will fire-up new energy and vitality to do some great new things for the people and things I care about.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I promise to share more freely and widely - finding new ways for every little extra nugget to catch fire and spread to as many people as I can reach; to make their lives better.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would improve my ability to inspire others to become the very best person they can be, by showing them the way in being the very best me that I can possibly be. No limits, full integrity, internal clarity, external ebullience, and boundless optimism will reveal the way.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I promise from this moment forward to look for the best in all people, and to help them to bring that out to show the world, through allowing others to see the inner beauty that is revealed when hearts and minds are opened. I promise to allow my inner beauty to shine on all that is done to help others discover their true nature.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To have $ 1 million and health & free time to expend it.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Propose simpler rules for city planning.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
To be open minded enough to learn and accept the real me.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
To help others do the same in any way possible.
It's amazing to be looking at these comments and how the same we all are. I do have problems with focused thinking, self esteem and not accomplishing what I really want to do.
And I do want to be in service of others. I have proved that before and will continue to do so. But I do need to look after myself and my weight and lifestyle.
All the best,
James
1. I have most of the information and knowledge I need readily available, I know how, where to get it and who to get it from. All I need to put the finishing touch and make all I can be is this little trigger that will make me decide and act right now.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
If I can be a better person, the world can be a better place. I help others to become better also and in turn...
The one thing i want to improve in my life is my relationship with my ex. I truly believe that we were meant to be together and we will be. The one thing I can do right now to set this process in motion is to be myself, positive and strong. I will read positive quotes every day and ensure that i meet tiny goals for it is only when you see yourself as a winner that you become one.
I would like to focus on my family when I am home instead of unfinished work.
I am going to plan each day effectively so that I can dojust that.
I need to eliminate my inclination to compromise. I grew up with big dreams that manifested in my Future Diary. The problem is that as I "grew up", those dreams got set aside as I compromised them, and me, to "fit in" with the world. Though I am "successful" - I make good money and have a wonderful family, I am less then what I was meant to become because of compromise.
Today and every day I will examine the choices I make for compromise and ask "Is this what I really want? Will this get move me towards my dream?"
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Having the courage and focus to FIRE...I've been AIMing for ages...it is time to get off my duff, take what I know and take action on it. Stop making excuses and giving into fears and launch!
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will write the offer for introductory coaching sessions for "Living a Kick-Butt-And-Take-Names Life" today!!!!!!!!!!!
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Have sex everyday and make $500 a day
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Work and create jobs for people to work for me.
1. I could, but more importantly, can and WILL improve my life by renewing my commitment to my self, NO MATTER WHAT! It has been far too easy to let a day slide by without renewing that commitment. This posting has energized my enthusiasm to commit and care for myself! Thank you, Mark
2. I commit RIGHT NOW to be more positive and loving, to myself, and all those I come in contact with. I know this requires connecting with an "attitude of gratitude" daily. Thanks Mark for this connection!
1.If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Change my thoughts so that my attention and attitude retain a laser-like focus on creating abundant and fulfilling happiness.
2.What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Spend 10 minutes every day visualizing the emotional, mental and physical experiences that comprise bliss.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Remembering what I love. I've worked so hard for so many years, that when I DO have free time, I can't remember what used to give me joy.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Be a beacon that shines for hope--in my words, deeds, life.
Trying to see the world through the eyes of others, regardless of race, religion, culture or any human construct that defines us is very difficult. Eliminating our bias is a monumental task and most never make the attempt. I try every day of my life to achieve this.
My effort to make a positive change in the world is to show the country of Colombia in a way that I have never seen on American television. My blog at www.theothercolombia.blogspot.com is the vehicle for this effort. Understanding, acceptance and appreciation for the value of each individual who shares this planet can't be achieved in sound bites. I hope to make some small impact on the lives of Colombians by exposing to the world the reality of this beautiful country.
1) That I choose to take actions that bring me closer to my desired targets.
2) That I will make decisions that strengthen my power.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be? I would reach deep inside and realize that I am worthy of success and that others would want to work with me on a project to improve our self worth. All of the positive attitudes in the world cannot erase self-doubt. I would love to eradicate it for life…and show others how to do the same thing
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it? Change begins from within. I promise to work harder on myself than I do on my job….and share the dreams for success with as many as are willing to listen.
The one thing I would improve in my life would be the quality of my relationships with others.
What I promise to the world I will do to improve my life is to learn to focus on the other people I come into contact with. To be present, compassionate and available to
have at the least, a pleasant interaction.
I would improve on my ability to do the things I need to do to attain my goals. I promise to the world to do my daily target praxis and to stay focused on my short, medium and long term goals.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would improve my business so that I can earn a full time living on the internet.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Do a Kaizen time pocket first thing every morning when I hit my desk :0)
The one thing that I would improve in my life is my cash flow. Not to buy things but to do things. Money is energy and with money, as with energy, work and projects can be made real. To build and create in this life you must have two things, money (energy) and time.
The thing I would do most to improve the world is to work on myself. The only thing you have control of in this life is yourself and your reactions to life. You cannot control life and certainly not other people but you can control how you react to life and other people. By growing in sprit and understanding you influence life. By bring love into your life you create love in the universe. W. Fred Hendrix
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My personal commitment to my success, which is important because it helps my family and community.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I think the most important think for young people is learning how to handle finances. Teaching kids and talking to them about how important it is to learn financial skills helps empower them. As a result I will feel empowered to move closer to my commitment to my own success to model what I am teaching.
Get permanently out of the losers zone. Keep moving forward no matter how hard and painful some things might feel. To become the kind of person I want to be, I must stop wasting my time, talent and energy and choose the right thing to do.
From this moment, I'll start doing what's necessary to overcome the obstacles in front of me, keeping my sight focused on the prize as I follow this vision.
Suddenly, persistence and determination will pay off and I shall be doing what people around me think is only a dream: I'll be changing the world.
One out if many things in life that I've started to improve is connecting and being more loving with my family which consists of my grandparents who live a few minutes away from me and my mother and father living in two different countries apart, building new families, setting different goals for each other and many miles away from me.
To improve the world, I can promise to start within myself, reflecting and working on becoming less judgmental
and more loving human being.
I need to "declutter" my life.
I will start in my personal environment and redistribute (recycle),remove (discard), or relocate (find a home) 10 things each and every day.
The most important thing I can do is stop procrastinating. As a psychotherapist and writer, I have the capability of affecting more people (including myself) than I do at this time. The step I can take is to go directly to the task I avoid (usually writing or working out.)
If I could improve one thing in my life right now, it would be my ability to master the moment. I believe everything we seek in life always breaks down to moments... moments when we decide to honor our highest values or not. And, mastery of these moments, gives us the POWER to achieve anything we desire in life.
My promise to the world is that I will continue down the path I'm on. I've been focused on my own personal power for awhile now... and I will continue that... making the world a better place for all of us.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Forgive
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Love
I would change my bad habit of allowing clutter to occur......you know, like on my desk.....in my closet.....all over my work bench and in my basement. I'm not necessarily a slob, but I do have a bad habit of allowing clutter to occur and I think it inhibits my productivity sometimes. So, I realize this isnt as metaphysical as a lot of other folks, but it is real and my commitment from this point on is to make a master list for each area of clutter and address the list systematically......dunno the details yet......daily or weekly maybe.....but I can at least start the list!
The one thing I will improve in my life right now is to focus more on my relationships with my wife and children, and those within my circle of influence, to guide them in their growth, encouraging them to become all that they are designed to be.
I promise to improve the world right now by continuing to provide my experiences and knowledge to help others learn and grow in their relationships with one another, and to mentor others with encouragement and direction so their fears and doubts are dispelled.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My belief. Belief that anything is possible and that I (or we) can do it. The belief I had when I was younger. We are at a moment in time in our country where we can all hitch-hike on that positive belief...that indeed, anything is possible and we can do it.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
Be more grateful, appreciate the tools I've been given, assess the assetts around me and I am making a committment to use them wisely and with energy!
I need to be present,aware
of all aspects in my life
and focus only on the ones that take me forward.
I promise the world to be aware of what I say,what I do,what I eat,in an effort to keep moving forward and just improve a little bit
each and every day.
****Independently Healthy,
Independently Wealthy.****
this is my goal, and i would improve upon the wealthy aspect,
as i have wonderful results on the healthy side.
i would learn more efficient ways of building value,
bringing life-affirming content to people's life, through marketing,
and product creation.
this will lead
to passive cashflow,
to build a foundation
of independent wealth.
***so that i may give generously, to help others
in their journey,
their journey of the soul,
their journey to source.***
For the world,
i would work on myself. Bring myself to a higher understanding,
higher frequency
and vibration,
through optimum health food choices,
optimum embracing of a positive mindset,
**an attitude of gratitude.**
this higher yearning will **automatically** uplift those around me.
a rising tide floats all boats.
one specific example
would be to continue to inspire people with the possibilities of a vegetarian diet.
****Going veggie,******
i believe is quite simply
the best way one can help oneself, and by extension
the world.
****going veggie,****
*automatic health benefits,
*peace of mind
(not involved with cruelity,and not partaking that violence,negativity into own body, mind)
*mind boggling less strain on earth's resources,
*and an automatic raising of vibration bringing one that much closer to source,
and closer to wake up and remember who we really are.
(spiritual beings having a human experience)
****going veggie,******
a simple, easy decision
that anyone, anywhere
can do and reaffirm
each and every day,
every meal,
that will have huge rippling positive benefits,
automatically,
yes, automatically.
*going veggie for oneself,
automatically helps the world.
that's the simplistic beauty of this easily doable lifestyle.*
sincere thanks
for the consideration,
peace and blessings.
look forward to the club!

1. I would improve this very moment. I would not be here writing this comment, but embarking on the adventures I dream of, shucking the mental baggage of negativity and lack of belief in myself that constrains me.
2. I promise the world that I will look at it renewed, with a hope of a better, more productive, more positive life for me and my loved ones and that I will give the best of myself to help and love others out of respect for the gift of life and the wonderful chance that I've been given.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
FOCUS and clarity of PURPOSE. I'm working fulltime but have launched my Virtual Assistance Practice last July. It is hard to sustain the energy of working, running your own biz on top of managing your household. I know I have what it takes to make it as an Entrepreneur but my husband has been jobless going on 2 years now and I don't want to jeopardize my F/T job. I'm hoping that I'll find my wings soon to break-free from the 9-5 grind and be off running with my VA practice. I need the financial support to do this so as I don't put my family into further financial hardship. My 9-5 is literally killing my soul.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
To BE - also, be MORE AWARE of myself, my strengths, my weaknesses and how I can be of service to everyone I encounter knowing that I possess these qualities.
1. Focus: I will eliminate my habit of working too many projects at once. I will focus on just one project until completion. My priority project is HomeSmokeEater.com.
2. I will help the world by effectively marketing my home smoke removal system. This will help families living with smokers by eliminating the majority of smoke and odors quickly and creating healthier and happier homes. Removing the smoke quickly and quietly will minimize the huge negative health impact and also greatly minimize family fights caused by the smoke. I'll start today with a new PPC campaign and PRWeb Press Release.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
I would root out, understand and address all of the issues which I currently bury by eating. Which sabotage my relationships. Which sabotage my professional and entrepreneurial efforts. Which keep me from living by choice instead of drifting in fog.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I will start journaling when I notice myself making a choice. And I will follow up in the journal with how that choice affected my relationships, goals and values.
The one thing I can do right now to improve my life, I'm already doing. I'm combining the teachings of S. Covey, D. Ramsey and some guy named M. Joyner to improve my character, health, finances and spirit. This will lead me to the personal freedom to grow and excel. My promise right now? I will never quit.
1. For the past year I have been floating in a world of two many ideas and too little progress. I want to settle on an opportunity or idea and see it through to completion.
2. My promise is to take action taking by first setting tangible, measureable goals, both long term and short of what I want to accomplish in 5 years, in the next year, in the next months, weeks and today. Than follow through with constant reminders and holding myself accountable through the support of family and friends and taking the steps necessary to accomplish my goals.
the thing I would most like to actualize in my life is moving from thinking, to doing, I want to start taking action! Each night, I pledge to make a list of 3-5 things to DO the next day so that I can start taking action right from the beginning
My mission to the world depends on my awareness of each NOW moment. I want to be completely aware of my destiny that I might fulfill my commitment to this planet and the human race to which I belong.
I promise to listen to that little voice inside of me that guides me in every NOW moment that I may complete the mission that I chose before birth.
Love and Light,

I would improve my inner life, my own leveel of joy and happiness. This is most important because we are all connected and the only way I can help others is to help myself first. Happiness and joy are what people want most and what I beleive God created us for. It is a living frequency of Life itself and what more can we be than the most alive we can be. Then we become a world of uniques geniuses. And in a world of unique geniuses,,,wow, we can do anything and everything, break through all barriers and boundaries and reach out to unlimited vistas of living. We can use 100% of our brains instead of 5 and be what we were made tobe and in so doing the planet itself will add to the entire universe, as I am sure Life is abundant all over this created universe and we will be ready to join in and be part of the greater civilization. I am all for reaching our total potential, all of us together,,because if one of us is not fully alive it effects all of us and each of us that reaches that fullness offers it to everyone. The hundredth monkey prinpicle.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
Chaning my perspective of my finances from feeling stuck and helpless to proactive and co-creative. Feeling worthy to accept and receive, letting go of fear and self-sabotage, and claiming and honoring my power - I am here to do great things. Whew!
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
To remind myself each day of my connection with the Divine, to re-member my true source is not external.
No fear! Walk through the fire!
The one thing I will do to improve my life is to reach out to as many people as I can to share my knowledge, beliefs and feelings about what is going on in our global crisis. I will continually and rigorously reasearch and share what I can with as many as I can becasue we are at a very serious tipping point and the global consciousness needs to be pointed in the right direction. In these times we need to understand the incredible earth moving power of a collective consciense and how we can help one another. I promise to the world that I will write a book with a clear, SIMPLE game plan that will be my part to change the the tides of thought.
1. How I could improve my life? I would increase my compassion and understanding of people who seem lazy, uninspired, and victimized by something or other. This would help me get past my frustration at them when they do not give themselves power and complain instead.
2. How could I improve the world? One by one, with the people I meet, I can stand for them giving themselves personal power at whatever level they are currently operating from.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
A. One thing I Choose to improve in my life right now is connecting with my higher source (on a consistent basis) in raising my energy and vibration level to assist others in raising there energy vibration.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
A. I promise I will start with 50 full wave breaths each day and connect with like minded individuals where we may assist each other in assisting those who are looking for guidance.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
My writing, and speaking skills, my self discipline and development to keep in a forward movment.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
I promise to my self and the world that I will continue to practice self dicsipline. And continue to develop my areas of essence to create and produce outstanding value (uniquie to myself) for all humanity and the universe.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
The mission Christ has given me for my life is to be like the dawn in all my relationships; to brighten spirits, to bring hope like the morning and to quietly shed light into every dark place like daybreak quietly brings forth the sun. I wrote that mission statement in 1982. Since then, everything about the dawn fascinates me. All the scriptures in the bible about the dawn are incredibly powerful for me as I seek to fulfill my life's mission in Christ. So President Elect Obama's victory speech meant a lot to me even though I didn't vote for him. His quote "the dawning of new leadership in America is at hand" absolutely lit up my dark TV room at around midnight on election day. I hurriedly posted an Election Day hubpage so that I could capture the moment, the new dawning of leadership in me. So here's the thing, the one thing I would improve in my life right now is my leadership skills. That takes work that I haven't been doing. As a business owner, as an American citizen and as a Christ follower, I will work hard to improve and be more like the dawn in all my leadership responsibilities.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
My promise to the world that I will do right now is to be of more help to the homeless in my city. I've met several people without homes recently - women in unrelenting poverty - who come to a day program at one of our faith-based inner city rescue missions. Not sure how yet but I will be like the dawn for these women. "A new dawning of leadership in America is at hand" and it includes me.
The one thing that I need to do today is put action to all the knowledge that now have to act upon NOW! Stop waiting until everything is perfect. Knowledge is only real power when there is ACTION! Start NOW!
The thing that I can promise the world right now is that I am building a "DREAM MACHINE". That I will share how to build a Dream Machine with everyone who will listen. It doesn't cost a dime to build and everyone can do it. It is FREE! If you can remember the word "BUILD" you can build your very own "Dream Machine".
B-U-I-L-D: B-Is For Believe,
U-Is for Unlock, I-Is for Imagine, L-Is for Love, and D-Is for Dedicate. Start to build your "Dream Machine" and Never Stop! Start and Never Stop!!
Thanks for letting me share.
One area I would improve upon is my ability to focus and maintain my commitments through to completion. The world comes at all of us at a thousand miles an hour and from all different directions. Work, spouse, children, friends, community - everyone and everything needs our attention - or so it seems. In our frenetic race to keep everyone happy we lose our focus.
One thing that I commit to doing today is obtaining clarity on my goals and committing them in writing.
1.
I am very blessed to have a loving husband, and wonderful children and grandchildren, since my husbands near fatal accident 6 years ago, our financial life has been difficult at best. I would change my financial situation to prosperity rather than difficult.
2. I am writing this comment to enter this contest, and when I finish it I will open Simplology 101 and complete my next lesson. Making positive proactive changes in my life is my journey to prosperity, teaching others to do the same is my goal.
Thank you for the opportunity to think of all that I am grateful for.
Blessings

If I could improve one thing in life this moment, it would be the ability to instill an inner belief that I can achieve my dreams. Only by realizing them, will I be able to help others reach theirs.
Right now, I promise the world to be more accountable to myself, to focus not on wasted time, but on what can be done with the time that remains. I promise to do what I dream despite fears within. I promise the world to CHANGE, walk boldly into my vision of happiness and to bless others as I am being blessed.
1. If you could improve one thing in your life right now, what would it be?
A. The main situation I would like to improve right now is to somehow help my wife stop cheating, lying, drinking, spreading poison, vilifying me, and being disengaged with the kids while we try to dissolve our marriage, for everyone's sake. She has and continues to demonstrate the desire to do her own thing and complete her second divorce without really attempting to build a partnership.
2. What can you promise to the world you will do RIGHT NOW to improve it?
A. I will continue to try and forgive and stay above the drama by doing everything possible to avoid contributing to it while guarding my attitude and actions and ensuring my responsibility to, not for, but to my son and step-son. It seems to make her angry that I rarely engage in her antics and that my biological son, especially, enjoys being with me. It's a seemingly no win situation but I continue to believe things will get better if I keep practicing actions such those in simpleology and other proven good sense habits for living. I look for ways to help her be engaged while attempting to minimize the opportunity for her to take offense at them. I look for ways to help her parents engage with the boys and try to set routines which help us all function at our best. I support her in front of the boys as often as possible while trying not to provide the opportunity for her to say she doesn't need my help. I try to talk about our differences away from the boys and realize I can't force her to ever finish a conversation to a mutual agreement of any kind. I can only offer my thoughts and ask for her to help me understand why she doesn't work together. I will keep trying not to judge and stay present and take care of myself more and more for everyone's sake.
If I could improve one thing in life this moment, it would be to focus more time and energy creating inspiring, uplifting, educational, and entertaining stories in the form of novels and motion pictures.
Right now, I promise the world to write bestselling books and make movies that will inspire, uplift, educate, and entertain the human condition.
