CREATING A NEW YEARS TIME CAPSULE

as motivated by Oprah's show about
THE YEAR 2000
Millenium Time Capsules


Although Year 2000 has already passed and gone,
I think the idea behind this "time capsule" thing is great motivation
for any ol moment in time a person might decide to create one.


HAVE YOU PREPARED YOUR TIME CAPSULE YET?

In case you missed it, the show when Oprah started this whole thing
was Friday, April 10, 1998, the topic,
"Millenium Time Capsule."
BUT IT'S NOT TOO LATE FOR YOU TO JOIN IN!

The idea is to have things in place to begin the YEAR 2000
happier people and people regularly doing things
to help our fellow man.
There was this big trunk (a time capsule trunk) where Oprah, guests on her
show that day, and members of the studio audience placed inside sealed up
lists of goals or objects representing the goals they each aspire to having
reached by the Year 2000. Goals for having improved themselves, personally,
and goals for having volunteered of themselves regularly, and on an ongoing
basis, to help others. And Oprah has invited back the same guests and
studio audience to be on/at her show for New Years Eve, 1999. The capsules
will be opened and revealed and we'll find out if everybody reached their goals
or not. Plus, Oprah suggested that everybody watching make their OWN
sealed up time capsule containing whatever represents their OWN Goals-2000,
to be kept at home in a safe place until that same night. Her main guest that day
was Dr. Phil McGraw, a renowned psychologist, who had been Oprah's defense
strategist during the "Cow Trial." He gave advise on achieving goals.
I TOOK NOTES!
These are some of the points Dr. Phil so eloquently made:

ACHIEVING GOALS
5% OF OUR TIME IS THAT WHICH IS GOOD OR BAD.
95% OF OUR TIME IS WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT.
WANTING change won't GET you change!


THREE QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF


WHAT DO I WANT?
Gotta NAME it before you can CLAIM it! BE SPECIFIC!!


WHAT ARE THE BARRIERS TO HAVING WHAT I WANT?
NAME what's keeping you from getting it.


WHAT MUST I DO TO GET IT?
PROGRAM yourself to do it. Winners do things that losers don't wanna do!


THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A DREAM AND A GOAL!

To reach a GOAL, you must

1. BE SPECIFIC as to what the goal is.
Write it down, plainly.

2. Have a TIME FRAME for achieving it.
By the Year 2000!

3. Have ACCOUNTABILITY to someone or something of your progress.
Record your efforts and progress in a Goals-2000 diary/journal.
When you open your Time Capsule on 12-31-99, be ready to say
I DID IT!
