This Week's Challenge:  Take Time for Yourself

Renewal is a Quadrant 2 Activity (not urgent but important) however, we must be proactive to make it happen.

Give yourself permission to take thirty minutes just for yourself today.  Find a "stressbuster" and do it!

Ask Yourself:  Are urgencies crowding out my renewal time?

"This is the single most powerful investment we can ever make in life...investment in ourselves."

- Stephen Covey

This Week's Challenge:  Develop Your Heart

Our emotional life is primarily, but not exclusively, developed through our relationships with other people.

Choose one way to build your social/emotional capacity this week:

- Invite a friend to dinner

- Forgive someone

- Text or email a friend you haven't heard from lately

Ask Yourself:  Who can I connect with this week?

"To touch the soul of another human being is to walk on holy ground."  - Stephen Covey

This Week's Challenge:  Sharpen Your Mind

As soon as we leave school, many of us let our minds atrophy.  But learning is vital to mental renewal.

Choose one way to build your mental capacity this week:

- Keep a journal

- Read a classic

- Develop a hobby

Ask Yourself:  Do I begin the week mentally refreshed?

"There's no better way to inform and expand your mind on a regular basis than to get into the habit of reading good literature."  - Stephen Covey

Spirituality is a very private area of life and a supremely important one.  It draws on the sources that inspire and uplift you.

Choose one way to build your spirituality capacity this week:

- Refine your Personal Mission Statement

- Spend time in nature

- Listen to or create music

- Volunteer in your community

Ask Yourself:  Am I centered on my values?

"The spiritual dimension is your core, your center, your commitment to your value system."

- Stephen Covey

Physical renewal involves caring for your physical body...a healthy diet, sufficient rest, and regular exercise.

Choose one way to build your physical capacity this week:

- Set your alarm...for bedtime.

- Find a way to be active that challenges you.  Add a new component to your exercise routine:  endurance, flexibility, or strength.

Ask Yourself:  What's one way I could improve my strength and resilience?

"Most of us think we don't have enough time to exercise.  What a distorted paradigm!  We don't have time not to."  - Stephen Covey
