Action step I am taking: Year-End Goal Setting Meeting
In preparation for 2023, now is the time to schedule a meeting with your family, co-workers, teammates, etc to set the vision for next year.  My family uses credit card points to get a hotel room for one night.  During this time, we use it to discuss our individual goals and the goals the family would like to achieve.  This includes any travel plans, educational requirements, kids’ sports teams, and home improvement projects.  This could also be done in one afternoon at a coffee shop, co-work space or anywhere else you find relaxing and inspiring. Take your life seriously, get a plan and create a compelling vision for your future. This week, set aside time to identify a day and time that you will work on your goal-setting meeting!

Charity I am encouraging:
Canned Food Drive For San Diego Food Bank
I cannot believe that it is already that time again already.  Time to collect donations for the Aligned Life Canned Food Drive to help support the San Diego Food Bank.  Last year we successfully donated 109 lbs of food.  This year our goal is to eclipse that number.  That being said, due to some time away from the office the week before Thanksgiving, our collection time frame has been shortened.  This means that we need quick action from each of you that are interested in donating.  Our final date of collection will be Monday, Nov 14th.  Take a look in your pantry and on your shelves, identify if there is any non-expired food item you do not want anymore, and bring it to the office.  As always, I am grateful and inspired by your generosity!

Quote I am repeating:
“Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child is not.”
~ Jeff Bridges
One of the reasons Aligned Life has been participating in a canned food drive for over a decade is that it is a realistic and tangible way for everyone to experience the joy of giving.  I believe that a part of living an “Aligned Life” is thinking of others.  Fame, money, materials, and titles are all things we are taught to strive for, however, none of them provide the same deep satisfaction that comes from being of service to your community.  This week, if you are in a position to do so, please consider finding the attention and time to donate to a very worthy cause.  You will be surprised how it will make you feel!

Have a kick ass week everyone!
In Health,
Dr. Devin Shea, DC

Trending Tuesday: Chop Wood. Carry Water. Keep Showing Up.

This week I’ve been thinking about the value of doing the small things consistently—especially […]
