as much as I'd LOVE for you to have a day honoring me - what I really want you to do is have a YOU Day! Not a date night. A YOU day. Do NOT clean, organize or plan for the future. Don't go to the spa. Don't shop. Don't leave the house (except to walk - but NO exercising). Don't do anything but celebrate YOU all day. Watch TV in your bedroom. Watch your favorite funny movies. But don't get dressed. (Make sure you have your favorite snacks - the ones you aren't supposed to eat - like frosting right out of the can). Whatever you do - make sure it's the opposite of what you'd normally do. Drop the kids at a sitter and have the house to yourself to do NOTHING. Reading is even ok - as long as it's trash for your mind. Then see how bad you feel the entire time, because I promise your best friend GUILT can't stay away! Then sit with that feeling and ask yourself this... Why are you last? Start putting YOU first and see what happens. Remember when you get on an airplane, before taking off, they emphasize, "Should there be a problem and oxygen masks drop - put yours on FIRST before assisting someone else". It's so important they literally tell you this on every single flight. Finding your oxygen mask starts with you getting to the root cause of why you ignore what you need until you feel broken - then all hell breaks loose. And that doesn't usually work either.. Outrageously Celebrating YOU,



News Page Instructions

Dear friends, in our quest to continuously improve Enriching-Life.com we have created a new News page for you. Here are some instructions to help you find your way around:

1. Icons
NEW!

Let's quickly explain what the icons stand for:

All News:
When the "All News" icon is active then the entire news content including videos, photos, quotes etc. is displayed in the content section.

Articles:
If you select the "Articles" icon then only articles are shown in the middle content sections.

Videos:
As the icon's name suggests, only "Videos" are listed if you click this icon.

Photos:
Yes, the "Photos" icon only gives you the photos which have been uploaded to site.

Quotes:
When clicking on the "Quotes" icon all the quotes ever submitted to our site are displayed in the content section.

Downloads:
Here you'll find helpful und interesting eBooks for download.

Submit News:
This icon is a new speedy way to submit catchy articles, photos, videos etc. to our site. Click on the icon and the "submit news" page, just as you know it, will open.

2. The content section:

The content section (left part of the screen) kind of stayed the same. You can still choose if you want to view the "latest", "popular", "random" or your "favourite" articles, videos, quotes, photos etc. by selecting the corresponding tab at the top of the frame. The functionality of the links remained the same too.

3. The sidebar
NEW!

The sidebar has been subject to some nifty improvements, which we hope you like and find helpful. Read on!

The sidebar has been subject to some nifty improvements, which we hope you like and find helpful. Read on!

The Life Area Box (at top of sidebar) We've given the individual Life Areas new icons to improve their looks

AND

if you click on a Life Area not only the drop down menu with the associated life areas opens, but right below the Life Area box you’ll now find a new feature displaying selected users who are particularly interested in your selected life area! So quickly make friends with them!

AND

we've even pushed it further and added another feature right below to suggest Life Dreams relating to the Life Area you've chosen. We believe this will inspire you to create your own life dreams or to join the life dreams displayed in the box.

And right below you can still find our "Related Books" section.

If you have questions about our new News page or suggestions on how to improve it further, please don't hesitate to get in touch! We look forward to hearing from you! Have fun, improve your life and live your dreams! Your Enriching-Life Team

Have fun, improve your life and live your dreams!

as much as I'd LOVE for you to have a day honoring me - what I really want you to do is have a YOU Day!

Not a date night. A YOU day.

Do NOT clean, organize or plan for the future.

Don't go to the spa. Don't shop. Don't leave the house (except to walk - but NO exercising).

Don't do anything but celebrate YOU all day.

Watch TV in your bedroom. Watch your favorite funny movies. But don't get dressed.

(Make sure you have your favorite snacks - the ones you aren't supposed to eat - like frosting right out of the can).

Whatever you do - make sure it's the opposite of what you'd normally do.

Drop the kids at a sitter and have the house to yourself to do NOTHING. Reading is even ok - as long as it's trash for your mind.

Then see how bad you feel the entire time, because I promise your best friend GUILT can't stay away!

Then sit with that feeling and ask yourself this...

Why are you last?

Start putting YOU first and see what happens.

Remember when you get on an airplane, before taking off, they emphasize, "Should there be a problem and oxygen masks drop - put yours on FIRST before assisting someone else". It's so important they literally tell you this on every single flight.

Finding your oxygen mask starts with you getting to the root cause of why you ignore what you need until you feel broken - then all hell breaks loose.

And that doesn't usually work either..

    Thanks Blueplanet for your lovely reply , Once before i faced this rule in my relationship , i have some one whom i give all what i can to support her and i totally
    forget my self and all my needs , and it ends up that i can't survive no more with this relationship even i was in love with her so much but i can't go on , and i only accuse my self for this failure
