From page four to the front door story: Kaziah Hancock. Several years ago Kaziah decided to paint portraits of soldiers who died in Iraq. She volunteers her time, talents, materials and all shipping charges to this cause. When it became apparent that this service may be more long-term than originally thought, Kaziah launched an organization to enlist the help of others. She named the effort, Project Compassion. Now other artists also help with the painting. People who want to support their great service can go to www.heropaintings.com to contribute.

We aired my interview with Dr. Lucy Jo Palladino, author of Find Your Focus Zone. It was a very pleasant interview. I find myself applying a lot of the information that I picked up from her conversation. The book is a wonderful book to have on hand. I highly recommend it. If you want to get a copy, be sure to do it through PBR's Book Recommendation section because a portion of all proceeds from book sales helps to fund juvenile diabetes research.

Our Personal Best story was about a mom who took a step back from her immediate thought to get angry at her son to instead put herself in her young boy's place. When the boy decided he wanted to run away, mom decided she'd better go with him. A touching story. Be sure to listen for it on the show.

Focus on Self advice for the day - How to Eliminate Negative Thinking from Your Life. I'm convinced this is a major key to move people from they are to where they want to be. Get your mind on what you want instead of what you got and you're well on your way to getting there.


Dream big dreams and make them happen.
