Sonja, your 'Put Your Affirmations into Motion' article
was great!!! I felt like you were talking about me. I am constantly
making goals for myself but I never do anything about them. Your
article helped me to realize that if I sit stagnant my dreams will
never come true. So tomorrow I plan to go talk to a career counselor
and find out what I want to do after graduation (from college).
Thanks so much. I love the newsletter.
Sincerely,
Linda
I live in Scotland, possibly a very long way away from yourself
and Andy, but I look forward to your messages dropping into my PC
account at work. Despite the possibly distance in miles it is
quite amazing how often I can relate them to events in my life. I
have often thought about sending you a response, good wishes for
your wedding, or after the tragic events in New York, but the
message you sent on Friday has appeared this Sunday afternoon when
I came in to work to do some statistics (or to be honest to keep
myself busy), and I felt compelled to reply.
About 5 weeks ago I was part of a similar scenario to your
brother's, when the person I loved suddenly and without any
warning arrived at my home and began verbally abusing me -
accusing me of things which in fact they were projecting onto me.
I have tried so hard over these weeks to remain calm and logical,
trying not to take them on board, carrying on with my life (I have
a grown up family and a demanding job with a multi-national
chemical company) but when I read your message the tears finally
flowed. Tears they say are for healing, so perhaps this is
another step forward, so thank you. Reading your message I know
now I was right in doing as I did, exactly what you suggest, but I
had been replaying the scenes over and over in my head, each time
with me saying all the right things and justifying myself.
I believe this journey through life is all about learning from
our experiences and I just want to thank you for affirming part of
my beliefs and helping me go on.
Very best wishes to you,
Kay
We have done a lot of work together and I certainly feel confident to recommend your services to anyone. As you probably know we are renovating our sites and one of them will be promoted in upcoming campaigns to hotels in Italy. One page, will display logos and a brief description of companies we work with. It would be my pleasure to include you.

On your subject for "You Deserve it", I now keep nothing for good &
enjoy what I have in my home for myself & my family. My mother
lived her entire life keeping things just for special occasions &
died without having enjoyed most of what she had. Life is far to
short not be enjoyed & the most important things we have are our
families . If we could all just remember to say I love you & mean
it to the people we care about each day the world would be a much
better place.
Thank you taking the time out of your live to send this
newsletter out. I look forward to receiving it every day.

That was one of the best posts that I've read in some time. Just
yesterday, I too, walked away from a negative relationship, and it
was because the person was a 'Button Pusher'. Unfortunately, it took
me three years of an on again, off again, relationship to see this
and then take action.
The hardest part in dealing with someone like this, is that they
know you so intimately that they can push you over the edge better
than anyone could. After taking a non-combative stance and just
walking away, it really became apparent just how sad the Button
Pusher is.
Often, people don't seem to develop good social skills let alone
good "anti-social" skills when things don't go their way. Since the
attack, I keep thinking that our responses to aggression is what
truly defines us all because we are all connected.
Thanks Sonny!

BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If half of the population did half of what I do to recycle we
wouldn't have any landfill problems. Alias they don't, but that
will never stop me! I know I make a difference and it's soooo good
to know I'm not the only one.
Thank you for being you!
My name is Diane and I am a Project Trainer at a Customer Contact
Centre in Richmond Surrey (I live in London but am South African)
Anyway, a while ago I used a search engine to find some inspirational
quotes and somehow came upon your newsletter. I had a quick read,
subscribed because I really liked what I saw and now your morning
email makes my day.
I know very little about how long you have been writing these
emails, nor whom your readership is, but I don't care, I love it.
Thanks for all the stories and anecdotes you include that are so
normal yet achievable, (I haven't quite mastered the sit-ups every
morning yet!!)
So that's all for now, thankyou, it's lovely to receive such a
brilliant email every day.
Regards
Diane
Good morning,
I enjoy your newsletter so much! In today's issue a subscriber
mentioned having seen your wedding pictures. Where might I go to
see them? Is there a URL to another site that I am not aware of?
I'd really like to see them!
Thanks again for the great newsletter - please keep up the good work!
Peace,
Hope
The 'Message of the Day' always gives me insight into where I
want to be. Your messages tell us of the ideal and in doing so,
you help me be a little better each day. I save them and
periodically go back and re-read some of them. The subjects you
write about, we all sometimes forget about in our daily lives,
but you bring them back to us in your 'Messages.'
Thank you,
Myra
What a great email [yesterday] morning .... you are so right in
saying that a smile or positive mood is often very contagious.
Wasn't there someone that said to do a good deed every day .... or
was that the Boy Scouts ....anyway ... thanks Sonny. You've made
my day an extra positive one!!!

You two are doing a fantastic job on the website.
I would imagine you are concerned that it might go stale with the
same format, but the subjects that you write about are so
diversified that you always hold my interest. Judging from the
comments of your readers, it would appear that you have a very
satisfied following. In case you do decide to change the format,
I feel confident that it will be something that I will enjoy.
I'm looking forward to whatever you decide.
I usually think that these articles are a pain, because you read
and don't apply but reading your article [yesterday], you hit the
bulls eye when you talked about "Conscious Living".
Thanks,
Eurico
Hi Sonja,
I am sorry I did not respond to the recent survey. I wanted to let
you know how much I enjoy receiving your email newletter every day.
Many times it is on a topic my husband or freinds have discussed
recently and other times it just makes me smile. Keep up the good
work and thank you for touching my life in such a positive way.

Self-Focus is the first e-mail I open. I love the quotes and
look forward to each and every one.
Thanks
I feel you're part of the family!!!!
I have only [subscribed] two days so far and found them
inspiring and uplifting. It's nice that it is personal and it's
like having a friend that raises my spirits and helps me
through the day. When I have a bad day I find myself having no
faith in anything and just exist as routine. Reading the
message of the day and the quote of the day helps me replace
negative thoughts with positive thoughts. Which inturn allows
me to feel more positive about my life and more positive about
the people around me that I love.
Thank you for this help.

I really like this column. I print these, save them, and read them to friends on the
phone.
:) Thanks.
Your answer [in Tuesday's Article on "Empowering Our Elders"] regarding how
to ask the right question is wonderful (and where were you when
I needed this help?). Luckily my parents are still here and I'll
keep this questioning in the front of my mind because they aren't
getting any younger.
Also, thank you so very much for answering my question last week.
You do have a natural talent for finding the right words.
Love n hugs...
Andrea
