Specific life skills are recommended to teach adolescents, like centering, emotional management, and defining relationships. Prayer and developing an attitude of gratitude are presented as ways to experience God's unconditional love and pour that love into others.
Book review
The document discusses various topics related to happiness, including embracing oneness with all people and religions, dropping the ego, managing anger through exercise and timeouts, not worrying about things outside our control, becoming fearless through trust, taking action toward dreams instead of making excuses, enjoying life without others' approval, seeing limits as opportunities rather than restrictions, and recognizing there are three kinds of luck: accidental, designed, and opportunistic. It is a collection of thoughts from "Just Win Singh" and their group on finding happiness.

Monk who sold his ferrari

It notes that asking questions challenges the mind, demands answers, improves life, and helps prevent falling for lies. Crucial biblical questions include ones about identity, source, destiny, and mortality. The key is for Christians to ask their own questions of God and seek answers in scripture. The most important question is how to accept salvation through Christ.
Meaning of life
The document discusses the meaning of life from different perspectives. It outlines that Aamna Abbasi will discuss the purpose of life, Ali Awan will discuss a meaningful life, and Ali Muslim will discuss a valuable life. It explores life as a deep philosophical question with no agreed upon answer and different views among individuals. Finally, it examines perspectives that the purpose of life is to worship God or achieve happiness, and that finding meaning involves living presently and removing obstacles for others.
Lessons in growth & development
God wants people to grow, while Satan wants to stunt growth. Personal growth determines how one interprets life and is their responsibility alone. When capacity develops, the next level becomes possible. The questions asked shape the answers received, so consider questions presently sought. Relationships either challenge growth or truncate it, so consider how people impact development. Growth demands self-discipline and daily habits must be committed to for personal advancement.
7 self knowledge
This document discusses self-image and self-esteem. It describes how our self-image is formed based on others' opinions of us and our own beliefs. Negative self-images often originate from childhood experiences.

Living according to God's way by having a relationship with Him helps us fulfill our purpose and potential.
Inspire yourself like never before
This document provides inspiration on how to view life more positively and take control of your thoughts and circumstances.

4. Manipur—(Looking for a) Life Partner
Being godly and yet desiring to be married can be quiet a battle. These simple notes introduce a few ideas of how a young person might approach this arduous enterprise.
Having good spiritual health
Having good spiritual health requires being rooted in Christ through a relationship with God. When people keep their hearts anchored in God's love, they can withstand trials and the enemy. To maintain spiritual health requires daily surrendering to God's love and grace by laying down pride and sin to follow Christ, letting go of the past, and spending time with God while being content with one's circumstances. Spiritual health is an ongoing process of surrendering one's life and will to God.
Real vs Virtual Happiness
Real vs Virtual Happiness
The document discusses the differences between real and virtual happiness. It defines real happiness as arising from actual life experiences and interactions between people, while virtual happiness comes from online socializing and gaming. A survey of 20 students found that real happiness has a longer lasting effect and is better for relationships. However, both real and virtual experiences can contribute to well-being. The conclusion is that while real happiness may be ultimately more meaningful, both have benefits, and true happiness involves balancing real and virtual experiences.
Live gracefully or stupidly
The document discusses two ways of living: unconsciously following the ways of the world driven by desperation, anxiety and fear, or consciously living gracefully with little anxiety by surrendering and trusting in the natural flow of life. It argues that people are too programmed to fight and struggle to achieve things, whereas the conscious person knows that life flows positively and they must tune in to the directions they are naturally going. The document also shares a personal anecdote about bench pressing 350 pounds with joy and no struggle while listening to inspiring music. It concludes that life does not need to be forced or struggled with through fear and anxiety, but by following one's own intuitions and surrendering to love.
How To Be Happy Alone
Loneliness is a state of mind which can be overcome by mental conditioning and keeping one busy. Here are some tips to overcome loneliness.

How to Reinvent Yourself with Tami Green
Six steps on how to reinvent yourself, no matter what!
After a bitter and protracted custody battle, declining mental health and three subsequent suicide attempts, I was diagnosed with a serious mental illness.
Though fearful of the consequences of exposing myself, I decided I would turn my life around and help others who had suffered as I had.
The next few years were spent testifying to members of Congress, speaking at local support groups and at thought leader conferences to offer my support, hope and encouragement that recovery was possible.
My YouTube Channel grew to 700,000 views, I published six short books, one of which was translated into Japanese, and developed a certification training program for others who wanted to peer coach.
During this time, I was estranged from most of my five children. The pain of the separation pushed me even further to learn how to stay healthy. My goal was to be the very best mother I could be should they ever return to my care.
After many years, I was reconciled with all my children and got married. I gave birth to my son, Hunter, at the age of 48, and had my twin girls at the age of 50.
My story is a story of redemption and second chances and this workshop is about the nuts and bolts of what one can DO give themselves a fresh start and live a new, intentional life.
Thanks for stopping by!
With love, Tami
