This is the announcement post for Live a Better Life in 30 Days (30DLBL) held in Dec 2010. Get the official Live a Better Life in 30 Days and start living a better life in the next 30 days!
Note from Celes: All pre-orders for 30DLBL have been sent out! To those who have pre-ordered the course, you should have gotten your copy by now. Enjoy!! Let me know if you haven’t received it! :D
In just 34 days, 2010 is going to come to a close. Are you ready for it? Are you ready to step into the next year?
For some of you, 2010 may have gone by in a flash. You may have been busy the whole year, moving from one thing to the next, switching from one focus to another. You may have been unconscious of how fast time has gone by. You may not have realized that 11 months, yes 11 whole months, have gone by since you said hello to the start of a new year. You may not be aware that in a matter of just one month, another year would have gone past you, and it’s going to be the start of yet another year all again.
If you feel that way, you’re not alone. Most of us are so busy that we’re not conscious of how time is flying by us. The time we leave for our reflection and personal growth is so little that it’s a wonder how we manage to keep everything together. And then when it’s end of the year, we look back and feel like yet another year has gone by without having done much vs. our expectations.
But guess what – it’s not the end of the year yet. There is still one month left, and depending on how you choose to spend it, you can either make this the most impactful month ever, or you can let it slip by like other months before. It’s up to how you want to make out of it. In taking conscious action, you’ll get huge changes, never to be the same person again. If you do nothing and continue status quo, you’ll get nothing different from what you’ve been already getting. Are you okay with that? Or do you want round up your year with a big bang?
Live a Better Life in December Challenge!
This is why for the month of December, I’ll be conducting a Live a Better Life Challenge, for all of us to close off 2010 on a huge bang. This is where we’ll get down and look back at how the year has gone by. This is where we’ll map out our biggest goals and dreams forward. This is where we’ll look at the areas of life we’ve been neglecting on before and take action on them. This is going to be the best month ever yet in our growth journey. :D
If you want to close off 2010 with a big bang, join the 30DLBL in December! This will be exclusive to those who have gotten a copy of 30DLBL, as the December 30DLBL will be based on the all new upgraded 30DLBL in the book. The Dec 30DLBL will be the first of the many 30DLBLs we’ll be doing together in the future. :D I plan to organize 1-2 30DLBLs annually (or more depending on demand), so everyone can get together and get a boost in their growth journey. See it as being part of one big family passionate about growing and living in excellence!
To participate, simply post your comment expressing your intention! (In the email section, put in the email you used during your purchase (if you used Paypal, that’ll be your Paypal email) so I know that you’re part of the 30DLBL Circle.) I’ll then send you an email with the instructions on what to do next! We’ll be doing Dec 30DLBL in the forums – I’ve created a private Dec 30DLBL forum which will be our central venue for the challenge. If we’re able to gather 10~20 responses, we’ll be going ahead with it! :D
Update 27 Nov, 2010, 3am – Nearly 20 responses in just 1 hour of posting the announcement – we’re definitely going ahead with the challenge guys!! :D
Dec 6, 2010 – Registration is now closed, and we have over 130 people who registered! For those who have gotten your welcome email, get your account and you can start posting away in the forums!
Get your girlfriend/boyfriend, partner, family members, friends, colleagues etc to join in even! The more people we do this with, the more committed we’ll be to our change. Note that each purchase of the book gives you one access pass, so if someone you know would like to join in, simply get a copy of the book!
If you have not gotten your copy of 30DLBL, you should get yours! The “live” 30DLBL we are having now is a special bonus for those who have purchased 30DLBL. It’s a thank you to those who bought the book and for them to put it into action. The 30DLBL run is based entirely on the book, while the “live” aspect comes from the forums, where members share their results, comment in one another’s findings and support each other.
IMO, the 30DLBL program is a great investment, because we’re going to do 30DLBL runs regularly at least once a year, plus the activities in the book are timeless. It’s like an online course, with support from other members and myself included, but free. The tasks in the book are timeless, and can be done again and again, in your own time without the group too. Members who have done the 30DLBL have all reported great results from them and I believe the testimonials speak for themselves. You can read more here: Live Your Life in 30 Days

Hi Celes,
I am also in. :-D
Welcome Sly! :D Your welcome mail has been sent!
I´m in, thanks for the great book!
Thanks Ann! :D I’ve just sent you the welcome mail! Welcome onboard!
Oh I am so excited and relieved to know that I can do it when I have the time. Celes is it ok if I feature what I do on my blog Musings of a caribbean princess?
http://caribbeanprincessmusings.blogspot.com/
Who knows other people may jump on board. I love your posts and was quite sad to miss out on the last challenge in september. I have featured some of your stuff already for example the Life Wheel (so doing the Challenge now will be really good for me). I will try to keep up! I have been reflecting off and on since my last trip to Singapore in August/Sep and started making baby steps towards some of my other goals. It has already made me happier (for example starting scrapbooking and my own blog). Hopefully this will be my chance to really focus properly on improving my life in a structured way! Yay! Yay!
:-P
Aw thanks so much for your kind words Caribbean Princess!! ♥♥ For sure, go ahead and feature your experiences/reflections on your blog – in fact, your experiences may well inspire your readers to take action too! :D As long as it’s not republication of the book’s original content it’s good to go!
Doesn’t matter that you didn’t get to do September’s challenge – you’re now here for December’s 30DLBL! Triple Yay!! :D *hugs*
The first 30DLBL was awesome and sure this one will be too. I just got my copy of your ebook a couple days ago. I’m excited to see what new exercises are in the workbook but I’ve decided not to read them until we get to those days. Part of the fun of the first challenge was being surprised by a new exercise each day.
Hey Matt, it’s absolutely awesome to have you onboard again! :D It’ll be really interesting this time round with the past 30DLBL alumni and new 30DLBL members. Whatever it is, it’s going to be exciting journey for all of us :D
Hi Celestine, Just purchased your book and workbook. It looks great. Would love to join in!
Hi Angelica, welcome onboard!! I just sent the welcome mail to you – look forward to seeing you at the forums! :D
Hi Celes,
I just bought the book and workbook. I’ve been walking around lost of years now. I hope this can help me. :)
Thanks!
Christine
You’re onboard Christine – Welcome! :D Just mailed you the instructions! :D

I have to improve my english for write in a forum!
Hi Maria! Your English is totally fine and understandable – don’t worry about it, really!! Let me know when you’ve gotten your copy of the book, and I’ll mail you with the welcome instructions for the Dec challenge :D
Sounds great!
Send you the mail Andrea! :D
Hi Celes!!
This will be a big challenge for me!!
I think I am one of those people that you call `self-help junkie´… I just read and read but don´t do much… Anyway, I´ll take some action here!!
Hey Olaia, I think taking part in this challenge is a huge action step in itself, and extremely commendable one at that! I’m really proud of you for taking the step forward and you should be proud of yourself too! Just sent the welcome mail to you – please let me know if you didn’t get it :D
Count me in, too!
Hello Beverley – I just sent the mail to you! Welcome to Dec 30DLBL, and here’s to an amazing end off to 2010 for all of us!!! :D
I’m In!
Hey Katie, just dropped you a mail!! :D
Hi Celes, lets make this month a start of an amazing start of personal growth :)
I´m in :)
You said it right Angelo! :D The mail has been sent to you! :D Welcome onboard!!
yes.. pls count me. i am very interested to join this challenge… ^^
Hello and welcome lalaine!! :mrgreen: Let me know if you didn’t get the welcome mail!
I am so in! I participated in the last challenge and had the attitude that some of the exercises didn’t apply to me. By the end of the 30 days Celes and the other participants convinced me that the areas that I was most resistant to are probably the most important areas for me to work on. I will be having surgery the 2nd week but maybe the meds will help with some of the resistance :mrgreen:
Welcome Carol, great to have a familiar face from Sep challenge!! Just sent you the mail + instructions! :D ♥
I’m in :-D
And in you are! :mrgreen: Just sent you the welcome mail and instructions; let me know if you didn’t get it!
Yay! Can’t wait! Fantastic way to end off 2010 and start 2011! :)
Welcome onboard Anna, and thanks for getting a copy of the 30DLBL Book! :D Check your email in about 15 min for the welcome instructions!! :D
Hi Celes,
Okay, I”m in!
Anne
Hey Anne, fantastic!! Welcome onboard! I’m sending you an invite email now! :D
I would LOVE to participate. However my schedule for the first 2 weeks in December is manic with conferences, tutorials, teaching and the lot ( I am a doctor). Can I still take part if I cant do challenges every day?
I have printed out my workbook! :)
Hey Caribbean Princess! :mrgreen: Don’t worry about it! Even if you can’t do them every day, try to just spend 5-10 minutes just reading, browsing through the forum updates by other participants, and keep yourself in the loop! Do the best you can, and post/participate where time permits. Simply catch up during the times when you’re free and you’ll be up to speed.
Welcome onboard!! :mrgreen: Will be sending you the welcome instructions now via email!
