This project's goal is to give each family member and myself just 10 minutes of unconditional positive regard every day. All attention is focused on the other person for those 10 minutes and only positive comments or thoughts are allowed. Just 10 minutes often becomes much more. Try it and see. You'll find the Just 10 guidelines on the right side of this blog.

I Choose

Each of us is given 24 hours every day, no more, no less. Ultimately, we each choose how to spend it. It doesn't always feel that way but we really do choose to get out of bed in the morning, even if it's to "go to work for the man."

Each of us is given 1440 minutes in that day. If broken down into ten-minute segments there are 144 10-minute segments in our day. If we spend 8 hours sleeping and 8 hours working we've spent 96 of those segments. Forty-eight ten-minute segments remain.

How can I not choose to spend ten minutes of unconditional positive regard with the people I claim to love the most? Time is not an infinite commodity. Each moment counts. I choose how to spend my time. Do you?
