Remember that there are SEVEN key areas in your life: Spiritual, Career, Financial, Social, Family, Physical, and Personal Development. Each week we will feature a photo from one of our readers displaying what makes them happiest in one of these areas.
Give me a picture that portrays one of these areas, along with a 50 word description. We’ll post it on the 48 Days site and give you a free Little Book of Big Ideas or 25% off your next purchase!
Thanks to your techniques, I was able to redefine my career by using my sales and business experience combined with volunteer work to become a development (fundraising) director for a non-profit organization! I can work from home and will set a good example for my daughter!
Thank you.
Sincerely, Kristi
Dan
You wanted to know what made us happy, and this picture says it all for me. My doggies and kitties ARE my children and being with my "children" is what makes me happy. I have "4" dogs and "4" cats . . . or should I say they have me!! :-) All my furry babies bring me more joy than I can explain. Most of my family is gone and I have 2 brothers who live in different states. I'm recently separated and soon to be divorced, and my furry babies are comforting me and helping me through this difficult time in my life. First of all, God is my strength and joy, but my "children" come in a close second! No matter how bad my day goes, or my life at the moment, I still have wagging tails meeting me at the door, and a purring kitty who will always jump in my lap. So I guess my happiness falls into the "family" area of your list since they are "my" family. I do thank God each day for his grace and mercy and for his gift of creation....the animal kingdom which God says we are to have authority over. Actually I think there are days they have authority over me, but either way, they are truly a gift from God to me!!! I have MUCH to be thankful for!!! God is good!

Hi Dan and company,
My name is Ryan and this is a picture of me and my daughter-my immediate family. This is my little girl and she is growing fast. This picture is a couple years old-she will be turning 12 Nov. 22nd. I am a single father and my daughter is my favorite past time.
Here I am with my friend, Emomali, from Tajikistan where I recently served as a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity's Global Village program. I've discovered God’s calling on my life and, since reading "No More Mondays" a couple weeks ago, I’m now in my very humble beginnings of "Hope Heals"; a future non-profit organization helping those most in need.
For Ten years I worked in the flooring business. It was a good job and allowed me to buy my first house. However, I would come home to my family after work and not want to talk with anybody becuase I was so burnt out and unhappy. I have been priviledged to work for an internet company in which I get to be around new technology all day long (which I really enjoy) and I can work from home or the office. I am now happy when I come home to my family!
For 20 years I worked as a Stock Broker, Mortgage Broker and in Big Ticket sales positions, always under major stress, made good money, but realized money wasn't everything if your not comfortable doing what you love. I was always interested in horticulture and when I was in Hawaii saw bamboo and fell in love with it, Last year I decided to make a change in my life and pursue what I loved, growing exotic bamboo for everyone to enjoy!

I am a stay at home mom. One of my passions is horses. Anytime spent out under the blue sky, just me, God, and a horse, is good for my soul. It makes me happy to feel the wind in my hair as I ride along the mountain tops.
BE BLESSED!

My career, a nurse practitioner, is a spiritual quest where awareness of financial needs require my physical strength in a social walk that benefits my family and my personal development! A five mile walk inspired me! Success is having others follow your footsteps in their own shoes!
Best,

Here is a picture of me doing what I love doing best – theater. In this shot, I am playing the apostle Peter, doing a monologue about my denial of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. This combines both my spiritual passion and recreation!
Thanks,

God has used you to help me set up "Crosseyed Ministries"
It's a ministry where I write material, travel, preach, teach, and even use stand up comedy with one purpose: To help people stay focused on Jesus as they go through life.
I have created many free resources (ebooks etc) and I am finalizing the work on an Evangelism Training teaching, Devotional and other "How To... resources.
Honestly, I'm having trouble sleeping because my head will not stop swirling with ideas of how to help the body of Christ.
Thank you for reminding me to tap into what God has already placed in me! God Bless You!

My name is Kimmie Beasley from Charleston, SC. I am the "Virtual Spokesperson" for ViewThisHome.com. I go to Trade Shows, blog on the website via "Ask Kimme", and put my PR degree to use! Future plans for the grass roots approach to marketing the site include me touring the country in a ViewThisHome.com logo wrapped RV. This would truly be meshing two of my passions: promoting a strong product and traveling while getting paid!! I've read all of the Dan Miller books and they have helped me create this opportunity for myself. I'm coming to see you in Tennessee Dan! Stay tuned... My name is Selina Reyes. I'm a single mother of two amazing kids; Iraldy, 12 and Angelito, 10. One of my biggest passions is to sing, praise and worship God through one of the talents that God gave me; my voice. In this picture I was performing during a local concert sponsor by a Christian Radio Station (Renacer 106.1 fm). I made it to the final! It was an amazing experience thanks to the Lord!!
Hey, meet Poindexter, a lovable Nerd who I like to play as a comic act! Acting and entertaining is what I love and I am currently working toward doing this as my full time career, finally at age 45! It's certainly not too late and I'm looking forward to doing what I know that God has been calling me to do all along. I have always wanted to be involved in theater as a profession, but just never really had the courage to pursue it. Thanks to Dan Miller and "48 Days to the Job You Love", I am praying and planning to break away from the "9 to 5" and live for what I love!

Jodey Smith tries his latest marketing scheme when he straps on the Life After GM sandwich board. Jodey's dad retired from GM after 30 years. It is estimated that there are 465,000 former GM employees. LifeAfterGM.com was founded to help GM alumni find old friends, explore new careers, ask questions . . . and possibly even track Bigfoot." Here is one of the things I love to do. I am an evangelist and I love to share the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST through Biblical Costumed Monologs. It is fun and informative, plus, it is something people never forget.
