Count the Cost

Seed of the Day: Offer your assistance to someone in need today.

Good morning world, it's Thursday! One step closer to the weekend so keep pushing, you're almost there! We trust your week has gone well so far, even if a few challenges have presented themselves. As much as we can prepare for things, often the "surprises" in life can be the source of frustrations. Don't let it discourage you though; use it as an opportunity to reflect on finding peace during stressful situations.

If this is your first time visiting, welcome! We are more than glad you decided to stop by and check us out. Be sure to tell a friend, tweet about us, e-mail, carrier pigeon, Pony Express, whatever! The more people, the merrier. Should you want to keep up with us but don't have time to check the site everyday, we'll come to you! Just put your e-mail in the box labeled "You've Got Mail!" (on the desktop version of the site" and you'll receive updates from us (ONLY when we post...no spam, our promise to you).

For our seed of the day, we were reminded of cost versus value. Cost is an external measure, where as value is internal. A thank you card may cost you $1.99 at your local retailer, but the value of that card to the recipient may be a great deal more. Today, we ask that you count the cost of assisting someone else. Perhaps you know of a single parent or new parents, who could use a night to themselves if you could watch their kids for them. Maybe an elderly person you know could use your help with grocery shopping, or with a project they have put off around their house. It could be something as simple as helping a friend hang a picture, or helping a child's teacher plan classroom activities. The value from these things will make all the difference in the world.

Please share with us how you chose to assist someone today; e-mail us at oneseed365@gmail.com, or tweet us at @OneSeed365. We look forward to sharing in your success! Thank you so much for helping us change the world, one seed at a time.
