Define Your Reason This Season
The PURPOSE of DEFINE is to provide a positive haven for people to pursue their dreams and achieve their goals while in the presence and encouragement of others.  Now this makes sense to the team at DEFINE, because this is what we strive for and build for everyday.  And of course it makes sense to our members, or they wouldn’t have joined.  And it’s easy to promote this concept within the group, both to DEFINE and our members, because we all want the same thing – To Enhance Our Lives.

However, we all know people who wouldn’t get this idea, because they don’t know an incredible place like DEFINE exists, or they’re not ready for it, or they need external motivation.  So what we’re doing to congregate in 2008 is provide weekly and monthly recurring events to increase the exposure of the mission at DEFINE, to let the world know that WE are here to help YOU attain success; whatever that definition is for you.

Earl Nightingale said it best when he defined SUCCESS as: “The Progressive Realization of a Worthy Ideal.”  We like to say: “Define Your Reason.”  And the beauty of either statement is that YOUR definition is always changing, evolving and improving, whether you are aware of it or not.   Why would you want it any other way?

So to help YOU and YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS and ASSOCIATES become more aware of what DEFINE has to offer, here are the 2008 DYR offerings you can attend for FREE, whether it be to learn about DEFINE, to Network with some of the most SUCCESSFUL individuals in San Diego, or to just have a blast:

Holidays are about Family!

fam·i·ly  [fam-uh-lee, fam-lee] a group of people who are not necessarily blood relations, but who share common attitudes, interests, goals, and purpose.

This month we hope that you reflect on the definition above as a broadening of your understanding of FAMILY, because many of you will be surrounded by your loved ones, biological family, and friends this holiday season. However, for many, the holiday season is one that can be solemn due to lack of biological family, the recent loss or passing of loved ones or friends, and these all-too-common facts of life can dampen the otherwise joyous reason for this season!

When I weighed in at 236 pounds as of the new year, I already had some lifestyle changes in mind. On January 1 I took up temporary residence in Lake Tahoe with the intention of snowboarding myself into shape for three months solid. Indulging myself in the sport several days each week got the ball rolling toward my fitness goals, but I soon realized that I wouldn’t make it all the way to my goal just by playing on the mountain. I added a gym membership to the mix, and in combo with my outdoor lifestyle I was able to lose 12 pounds by the time I moved back to San Diego at the beginning of April.
