3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
With Christmas/New Year fun and frolics over, a mega clearup and cleanup is required as no housework has been done for two weeks. It will be good for me to do something physical and I will then dive into promoting my Practice from tomorrow.

In my inner life I will be focusing my attention on my intention, specifically the feeling of intention, and allowing intuition to guide my actions. i anticipate this to be a week of few external distractions, so it is golden opportunity to get my mind in the right place.

8. TRIVIA
It would take 800 marijuana joints to kill a person—the cause of death would be carbon monoxide poisoning. But before you light up, be aware that research is increasingly suggesting that prolonged use, especially strong types used from puberty, causes permanent irreversible brain damage. In addition, joints are usually cut with tobacco, so if brain damage doesn't get you, lung cancer, strokes, thrombosis and emphysema will.

9. ZEN WISDOM
If a person has just one good friend, their happiness is doubled and their life immeasurably enriched. This is genuine wealth.
