Just like the headline says, this page/board is where you can discuss the stuff that we didn't cover in today's issue. (It's sort of like feedback with a twist) Remember, NO name calling, racial taunting, graphic sex talk and vulgarity in general, PLEASE.

::The Truth that Changed a Life Forever::
Ben Johnson sat up in bed in a cold sweat, his heart pounding fast. Looking to the clock sitting on his night stand he saw the time - 3:14 AM. It was at that moment that his life changed forever. With his wife sleeping soundly next to him and his children safely in their beds, Ben was given the gift.
And you can have it, too.
It was around this time last year that Ben experienced this revelation that completely transformed his life. He was by no means unhappy or unsuccessful, but he wasn't where he knew he could be. He wanted more out of life - a job he loved, more friends, more money, and peace of mind.
Do you ever feel that a better life is out there waiting for you, but you don't know exactly how to make it happen?
This is exactly how Ben lived his life up until nearly a year ago at exactly 3:14 AM.
Today, using the gift he was given that memorable night, Ben is enjoying his life like never before. For years he had a picture in his mind of what he wanted his life to look like, but day after day things never changed. Each morning looked and felt exactly as the one before. It was a vicious cycle that seemed to have no end in sight.

What Does Your Picture Look Like?
_________________________________________________
If you are like most people, you also have a picture of what your ideal life would look like. When you close your eyes, you can see an exciting career, or friends and family that care about you, or a bank account that takes care of every need you have. Perhaps you don't know exactly what you want, but only know that you want something better.
We all dream about a better life, but very few recognize and make use of the gift. Very few achieve their dreams and live life the way it was meant to be lived.
That is all about to change for you. Today is your day to receive and utilize the very same gift Ben made part of his life.
New Year's Eve was right around the corner when Ben recognized the gift. Earlier that night he had been dining with his friends, talking about their New Year's resolutions.
As his friends and wife had completed their turns, the attention turned to Ben and his hopes for the coming year.
After listing several changes he wanted to make, the conversation quickly turned to the unusually warm weather.
Ben's gift, the revelation that awoke him and changed his life forever, was the realization that his list of goals he mentioned at dinner was identical to the list he had one year before.
He was wishing for the same things year after year, but nothing ever changed.
Right about now you might be asking yourself, 'What if I don't even know what I want?' If this is true for you, keep reading. If not, you can move ahead to the next section.
I can tell you from personal experience that not knowing what you want can be a confusing, frustrating and miserable time. But there is an answer. There are very specific steps you can take to discover what it is that you want, what goals will make you happy.
