Although water is essential for life to exist on this planet, I have not seen this issue get much attention from the politicians or from the government. With an extra 36 hours per week, I would spend at least half of that time working as a water conservation activist to raise public awareness about water issues and lobby politicians to take action. The other half of my precious free time would be spent teaching music to kids in an after-school program, learning Capoeira (a longtime dream), working with Habitat For Humanity and researching my family history (Salt Lake City has world-class facilities for this kind of research).

I get goose-bumps just thinking of the difference I will make. I have an extreme -to-do- list of things to accomplish in my life-time, however most of this time will be set aside for the things that will inspire others and evoke some emotion in this amazing life! Having several young friends pass on in recent years, I often think about them and remind myself to live with Passion, Love Everyone.. for No Reason…Everyday AND Enjoy Life... As a result I DREAM BIG! I would dedicate at least: 12 hours Personal Time: - Learn something new. (Intellectual: New languages, business strategies +) - Physical/Mental Health: (Yoga, Pilates, Tennis, Golf, Rock Climbing, Capoeira, Dancing, travel +) - Personal Growth: (Participate in motivational and spiritual groups and activities that expand and challenge my thinking, meet at least 10 new people each week and listen with intention) 12 hours Family/Spiritual Time: - Spend quality time with my parents, grandparents & siblings, doing nice things for them for no reason.. I wouldn’t be here without them! - Spend more time in my church community, participate in their events more often and share God’s word with others that may not feel worthy of God’s love. 12 hours Giving Time: Since we learn 95% of what we will ever know before we are 18 years old (attitude, behavior, personality), I really want to focus most of my efforts on the world’s youth. - Create a summer program for young students to travel to foreign countries to learn other cultures, languages, no boundaries and also teach them giving—we will always have a mission to impact lives wherever we go (charity work, etc.) - Also, our earth needs big attention. I will facilitate groups of people to tear down vacant, ugly buildings and plant trees…MILLIONS of TREES! I’ll call it: --Operation: Replenish Mother Earth--- I would highly publicize these events, NOT for credit, but to influence others to follow my cause. Thank you for everything Tim, your book and blog is amazing. You inspire me. Every minute of my precious extra 36 hours would be cherished.

Capoeira, Dancing, travel +)
– Personal Growth: (Participate in motivational and spiritual groups and

– Spend more time in my church community, participate in their events more
often and share God’s word with others that may not feel worthy of God’s love.

12 hours Giving Time:
Since we learn 95% of what we will ever know before we are 18 years old (attitude, behavior, personality), I really want to focus most of my efforts on the world’s youth.
– Create a summer program for young students to travel to foreign countries
to learn other cultures, languages, no boundaries and also teach them
giving—we will always have a mission to impact lives wherever we go
