The Power of Thoughts

Once you understand what you want, ask for it. You will be surprised at what you get. Oprah learned this first lesson when she read the book, “The Color Purple.” She thought, breathed and obsessed over this book and wanted to be part of the movie. This changed her life forever.

“The way you think, creates reality for you.” – Oprah

Millions of people will have fitness goals for their new years resolution. The hardest part of any goal is to consistently quantify progress. I ran across a fitness band that tracks your fitness and sleep patterns. It is called FitBit.

ShakePoverty.org Mission and Goals

Dan Daugherty — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 22:05:30 +0000

I am currently serving on the board of a non-profit start-up called ShakePoverty.

In October of 2009 I was giving a lecture to some entrepreneurs and business students at Ohio Wesleyan University. After the lecture, a young senior came up to me named Farooq Busari and wanted to get my thoughts on his idea of starting a non-profit. I thought the idea was brilliant and the rest is history.

On October 28, 2009, Farooq Busari set a goal to meet each of the 1850 students on Ohio Wesleyan University (OWU) campus; shake their hand, and photograph each handshake. Farooq’s mission was to unite his entire campus by inspiring each student to support the Millennium Development Goals to eradicate poverty by 2025.

Within a week Farooq and fellow student Hung Nguyen photographed 700 handshakes and went on to unite 1850 students, faculty and staff members of the campus community to support the end of extreme poverty. A 20 foot mosaic mural displaying each handshake was constructed in the center of OWU campus. Through donations and sale of merchandise, Shakepoverty Foundation works to lifts impoverished villages out of extreme poverty.

The mission of Shakepoverty Foundation is to shake poverty from the world by supporting the Millennium Promise and its flagship initiative the Millennium Village Project. The unique and innovative grass roots movement inspires people by showing them that their handshake commitment and purchase of Shakepoverty merchandise is important in our goal to end poverty.

“Poverty can be ended not by a handful of people but with millions of handshakes.”

I am honored to be part of this World changing idea. If you would like to help, please join the Facebook Group, Donate, or purchase some ShakePoverty Merchandise.

My good friend and old high school buddy Shaun Neff has made it big. He has build a globally admired headwear brand that is worn by some of the top skateboarders and snowboarders in the world.

He recently finished a Sony commercial that tells his story.

Believe that anything you can image, you can make real.

The Best App to Losing Weight

I recently downloaded the LiveStrong fitness app on my Android. In one word, “Awesome”.

I have been working odd hours and had no idea how many calories I was consuming during a 24 hour period. Quite frankly, I was disgusted.

The LiveStrong application allows me to keep track of all of the food I eat. It has one of the most robust food indexes around. I have lost 5 lbs so far and will lose 10 more in the coming months.

Below is a video for the iPhone app:

Alice In Wonderland

Dan Daugherty — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 19:43:15 +0000

Yesterday I watched Alice In Wonderland in 3D. There are so many great themes in both the movie and the book that could be interpreted in a variety of ways.

Below are some of my favorite quotes and how I relate to them. What are yours?

“One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. Which road do I take? she asked. Where do you want to go? was his response. I don’t know, Alice answered. Then, said the cat, it doesn’t matter.”

—–

How I interpret this: If you don’t know where you are going then you will never get to where you want to go.

—–

Alice: I simply must get through!
Doorknob: Sorry, you’re much too big. Simply impassible.
Alice: You mean impossible?
Doorknob: No, impassible. Nothing’s impossible.

—-

How I interpret this: The ‘impossible’ problem may just need a different solution.

—-

Alice: That’s Impossible
Mad Hatter: Only if you think it is.

—–

How I interpret this: Your mind only knows what it knows.

—–

Doorknob: Read the directions and directly you will be directed in the right direction.

—–

How I interpret this: Learn from others who have traveled a similar path.

—-

The Queen: Off with her head!

—–

How I interpret this: We see the World as we see ourselves.
