Organize a Fired Up! party-
where people come together and celebrate what gets them Fired
Up!. Have upbeat positive music, healthy food, lots of laughter
and joyful celebration about the positive things going on in
peoples' lives. Everyone shares their dreams, their passions
and their victories. You can even make it a costume party where
people dress up as though their big dream has been completely
realized.
Ask everyone the question "What's
the Good News?" With so much bad news in the media and
so much negativity out there, start focusing on what's going
well in your life. Share your good news and ask others about
theirs.
Host a dream collage evening-
Invite over 3-4 of your friends and get a bunch of magazines,
poster board, magic markers, and glue sticks and make dream collages
about your dreams. See full dream collage instructions inside.
REFER
TO FIRED UP! ACRONYM
Create a "Feel Good Folder"
for work and for home. This usually contains cartoons, cards
and thank you notes, postcards of places you might want to visit,
pictures of loved ones, newspaper clippings which inspire you.
It can be a folder, a lovely gift bag, a hat box, or whatever
works for you. Use it whenever something unpleasant happens or
whenever your flame dies down, to reignite the fire inside and
get excited again.
Host a Fired Up! week at work,
or at school or in your community. Employees, students or community
members can:
* maintain a daily success list
* share inspirational quotes - blow-them up and put them on the
walls;
distribute them on paper to everyone
* create action options for affirmations
* share inspirational music, books or stories
* talk about their dreams
* form Fired
Up! Inspiration Circles
* participate in International Make a Difference Day
Share your gratitude for
all the good things in your life. Start a gratitude journal and
record 5 items a day you are grateful for.
Participate in a service project
for International
Make a Difference Day Helping someone less fortunate
than yourself is one of the best ways to shift out of negativity
or depression into expansion. Be sure to choose a cause that
comes from your heart, and participate in a way that you feel
good about. The fact that you are focusing outside yourself to
serve others will get you Fired Up!
Complete the Fired Up! Action
Plan for Dreambuilding and start living the life of your
dreams. The more you do what you love regularly and the more
you share it, the more Fired Up! you will be. That fire is contagious
and it ignites the flame in others. The time is now. The choice
is yours. Get Fired Up!
