It&#8217;s always fun, and often quite moving, at times like these to take a look back and remind ourselves how far we&#8217;ve come, to recall where and what we were and how and why we are different now. These exercises can seem a little cheesy, but I think they&#8217;re quite useful. Some change comes so gradually that you hardly recognize it&#8217;s occurring at all. With a little self-reflection you can acknowledge that real change has occurred, be proud of it and own it, and then commit to further personal growth.<\/p>\n<p>I was inspired by <a title=\"What Did YOU Learn This Year?\" href=\"http:\/\/www.marksdailyapple.com\/forum\/topic\/what-did-you-learn-this-year\" >this<\/a> Mark&#8217;s Daily Apple forum thread. In it forum user bonesheal asked, &#8220;What did YOU learn this year?&#8221; Seeing that Mark&#8217;s Daily Apple may have played a small part in raising the consciousness of the people that responded makes the experiment that is MDA all worth it. I started MDA over 3 years ago now with the goal to, as I say, empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigatng, discussing and critically rethinking everything we&#8217;ve assumed to be trued about health and wellness. I&#8217;m thrilled to see that people are doing just that. And I look forward to continuing to provide the resources and this forum for change.<\/p>\n<p>At this time I&#8217;d like to echo bonesheal and ask, <strong>What did you learn this year? List and share your thoughts in the comment board.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be choosing one lucky commenter at random to win the <a title=\"Primal Holiday Offer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.primalnutrition.com\/primal-holiday-offer-i-26.html\" >Primal Holiday Package<\/a>. This contest ends when the Primal Holiday offer ends &#8211; Dec. 31, midnight.<\/p>\n<p>Check back tomorrow for an all new contest!
