What if You Had One Month to Live?
By Belinda Elliott
The One Month to Live Challenge centers around four key principles.
“Live Passionately” calls readers to stop living with the “Someday Syndrome” and begin to live their lives with purpose, embracing all that God has for them. “We’d always say, 'Someday when things settle down we’ll really focus on the kids. Someday when things settle down then we’ll really do this or that,'” Shook said. “We realized finally that things are never going to settle down. We have to carve our life out of what’s going on right now.”
“Love Completely” focuses on people’s relationships with others. “We’ve noticed that most people, at the end of their lives, their biggest regrets are relationships,” Shook said. “Loving completely means don’t leave anything unsaid. Don’t leave anything undone. Express your love today. Write a letter of thanksgiving to someone today. Do whatever you need to do today.”
“Learn Humbly” discusses learning from problems and pain. The chapter also helps readers discover who God made them to be and how to best use the talents and gifts He has given them.
“Leave Boldly” encourages readers to live their lives in ways that will leave behind lasting legacies. "We build these elaborate sandcastles and they look like they are permanent," Shook said. "Maybe it’s a big business, or a house, or material possessions, but those things aren’t going to last. One day the tide of time will roll in and wash those all away. It’s the things you can’t see -- faith, hope, love, the souls of men and women -- that’s what lasts forever.”
Questions:
What if you had one month to live? What to do?
What are the things you need to do before you die?
What are your bucket list ideas?
What are the places must to see before you die?
How to express your feelings to the one you love?

How to stop living with the “someday syndrome” (procrastination)?
How to arrange giving money to children/to someone after death?
What do you think of funeral ceremonies?
What do you want people to say about you at your funeral?
How to say goodbye when someone you love is dying?
時光機/回到過去
If you could journey back through time, where would you go, what would you do and why?
(kaohana.windward.hawaii.edu)
I could enter a time machine, I would love to be able to go back in time when I was a child. Taking the knowledge I have now from the life lessons I have experienced, I would definitely be able to change my life and take advantage of things like my parents and a high school education. Your parents try to explain to you the importance of school and an education when you are a child, but it is only after when you become an adult that you realize the value and importance it has and how it will benefit your life and future. I guess you can say as a parent, you are going back in time with your children, except you are hoping that they will learn from your experiences and live their life how you wish you could have.
– Christine Rombawa
I would go back in time to the 1950s. Things were very cheap. I could wear a suit everywhere I go. JFK would still be alive and, most importantly, I would be in pursuit of making Marilyn Monroe my wife.
– Lawson Kurosu
I would go back 50 years. Assuming I had no money, I would work until I saved $20,000 and invest it all in Apple. Also, I would have brought with me a game book with every sports event in it. I would take my Apple earnings and bet on every game, becoming the richest man in the world and donating half to WCC and, 1 million each to the writers and editors of the Ka ‘Ohana.
– Dana Yamauchi
Honestly, if I could go back in time, I would go back to when I was a kid because life was so simple then. When I was a kid, there were no worries about paying bills, the rising cost of living, political issues, having kids of my own, etc. I would want to relive my childhood because it was full of family, friends, playing outside and inside the house. There’s this bliss that comes from the ignorance of being a kid and I miss that. The world doesn’t seem so corrupt or negative when you’re a kid.
– Jackie Jackson
If I could go back in time, I would go back to the inventing of the time machine so that I can prevent it from being created. Everything that has happened in this world happened for a reason. No one has the right to change the course of history.
– David Morimoto
Although there are many significant events that have occurred throughout human history, I would choose to prevent the 9/11 attacks from happening. The loss of thousands of innocent lives that day is an unquestionable tragedy.

魅力學
有一些人，你一看到他們，就覺得他們很重要、很特別，或者，他們一走進房間，就會成為眾人注目的焦點。也說不太上來為什麼，他們自然而然散發著一股魅力。
有一些人，你一看到他們，就覺得他們很重要、很特別，或者，他們一走進房間，就會成為眾人注目的焦點。也說不太上來為什麼，他們自然而然散發著一股魅力。
公司雜誌（Inc.）指出，有魅力的人擁有以下十個習慣：
■「聽」比「說」多。有魅力的人善於問問題、看對方的眼睛、微笑等，讓對方覺得自己很重要。他們跟別人互動時的重點跟口語比較無關，而在肢體語言。即便開口說話時，除非對方要求，他們也不會搶著給建議。
■不會選擇性傾聽。有些人面對比自己低階的人，會忽略對方的談話。有魅力的人不同，他們跟別人談話時都會仔細聽，讓對方覺得兩人之間有共同點。
■先把自己放一邊。當一個人忙著處理自己的事情時，就沒有空跟別人產生連結。把全神貫注當成一個禮物送給對方，光接收到這個禮物，就會讓人想跟你在一起，並且記得你。
■先施再受，往往不求回報。有魅力的人懂得，先不要想能獲得什麼，把注意力放在能給予什麼。付出是建立真正關係的唯一方法。
■沒有表現出覺得自己很重要。老表現出覺得自己很重要的人，會讓人反感和不舒服，不可能讓別人對他留下好印象。
■其他人才重要。有魅力的人了解，一個人已經知道他知道的，那些東西已經不重要了，因為他沒辦法再從中學到更多。但是，別人知道他不知道的，因為能向別人學習，所以別人變得重要。
■把聚光燈打在別人身上。沒有人會嫌稱讚太多，看到別人做得好，不要吝於告訴他們。別人不只會感激你的讚美，也會感激你願意花心思注意他們，增添魅力指數。
■慎選所用字詞。一個人選用的字詞會影響其他人的態度，例如，不要說「我今天必須面試一個人」，而是「我今天要幫公司挑一個好的人才加入」。一般人都想跟快樂、有熱情、感到滿足的人在一起。
■不說別人的壞話。大家多少都喜歡聽八卦，但是都不尊敬講八卦的人。說別人的壞話，聽到的人會懷疑，你會不會也跟別人說他們的壞話。
■毫不猶豫地承認自己的錯誤。比起充滿保護色的人，一般人比較願意跟謙虛、大方聊自己曾犯過的錯誤，並適時自嘲的人在一起。

魅力學
How to Be Charismatic Edited by Jack Herrick Wiki How
Have you ever noticed how some people have the ability to captivate absolutely anyone? No matter what they look like or how much money they have, these people can just walk into a room and instantly be the center of attention. When they leave, people want to emulate them. That's charisma — a sort of magnetism that inspires confidence and adoration.
1. Exude confidence. Charisma isn't the same thing as confidence, but appearing confident can make you more charismatic because your confidence will put others at ease and inspire faith in your abilities. If people see you as a confident person, they will naturally want to be around you.
2
A charismatic person stands tall and walks with steady, determined strides. They walk into a room of strangers with pride, ready to embrace a new opportunity. They also gesture with their hands instead of crossing them over their chest.
Improve your posture. Nothing conveys confidence like good posture. Stand or sit up straight, but not rigidly. When you meet someone, give a firm handshake and look the other person in the eye. Display positive body language while you're talking to someone or even when you're just waiting around.
3
Make people feel special. No matter whom you're talking to, you should always try to charm that person and make them feel like the only person in the world. To have true charisma, you should be able to talk to anyone about any topic, and be a good and attentive listener.

How to Read Someone's Mind
Mind Reading Trick # 1: Trust Your Intuition.
The word intuition goes by many names. Some people call it gut feel; others, a sixth sense. Whatever you might call that gnawing feeling in you doesn't matter, as long as you understand what it is trying to tell you.
Haven't you ever found yourself in a situation wherein you know something is about to happen? You can't explain how you know, just that you do.
If you're used to dealing with different people, you probably use your intuition to learn how to read someone's mind. You may not be able to directly pull the words out of a person's mouth, but you can tell whether something positive or negative is coming your way. In this cutthroat world, a skill like that is highly coveted.
Mind Reading Trick # 2: Watch The Eyes.
Since you can't exactly drill a hole in a person's head to learn how to read someone's mind, why don't you focus all your attention on the eyes instead?
They are, after all, the windows to the soul. How much can eyes reveal? Well, when a person has done something they shouldn't have and is being plagued with guilt, trust that person to look at everywhere else except the person he's done wrong to. Another eye body language sign of deception is blinking.
Is the person you're talking to genuine or not? Observe to see whether their smile reaches their eyes or not. If the smile does not reach their eyes, then it's probably a forced smile.
Mind Reading Trick # 3: Word Association.
A fun way to learn what is on someone's mind is to play the word association game. You say one word and the other person says another that automatically comes to mind.
For example, if a person is hungry, they might not be able to help but fire back words that are related to food. Of course, you can't expect to catch a person's thoughts at the first bait. You need to lead them on with the impression that the game is innocent. And when they are caught up in the moment, strike hard.
Learning how to read someone's mind will be easy for those who really want to master it. The three tips above will help hone your ability to figure out a person's agenda without getting you into trouble.

《魅力學：無往不利的自我經營術》，出版社：天下文化【讀書心得】
一直以為魅力這種事跟天生有極大關係，至少在遇到這本書之前。雖然我在進入職場後給人的印象還算不錯，不過身旁偶爾還是會遇到些只要他們「一出場」（現身），目光焦點自然就會停留在那個人身上。並非長相原因，而是這些人說話的方式及內容，還有語調，似乎都很容易吸引人。所以在書店遇到這本書時，就抱著好奇加懷疑的心態拿起來讀，細讀後發現裡面提到的知識還滿符我要的。
說到魅力，我們真的很容易就跟外表或是言談直接聯想在一起，常看到媒體上的知名人物，言談舉止都充滿了明星魅力，最重要的就是眼神間透露出的自信。而這看似與生俱來的能力，真的可以透過技巧的練習而成嗎？作者奧麗薇亞就用她所教授的課程，以及場場爆滿的盛況證明了這件事。魅力，是真的可以經由後天練習而來，而且天生的條件並不是有沒有魅力的關鍵，奧麗薇亞在書中所述求的就是以保留每個人原本的個性，從中發揮出自己的影響力。
作者認為對於魅力最大的三個迷思
1. 最普遍的魅力迷思就是：生性活潑或擅於交際的人才可能散發魅力。
2. 另一項常見的魅力迷思是：你必須長相好看才會有魅力。
3. 第三個常見的魅力迷思是：你必須改變個性。換言之，你若想變得更有魅力，不需要強迫自己改變個性，也不必勉強自己去做違背內在本質的事。
最大感想：要有魅力，自信是第一步
這本書給我對於要有魅力最大的感想，就是要先有自信。當一個人對一件事愈有自信而不自傲，那麼他的言談、眼神就會充滿活力跟給人肯定的感覺，也就容易產生魅力。這種感覺不是刻意裝出來，而是發自內心真誠的散發，從內心外擴到肢體語言。通常一位有魅力的人，會發現他的言行與他的舉止都是內外相呼應。（假掰的人就不一定，時間久了就自然會露出馬腳。）
另外一個擁有魅力的原因，就是讓人覺得他喜歡跟你在一起。一般來說，如果你是公眾知名人物，這點很自然就會達成，所以公眾知名的人物都有一般人沒有的魅力。不過如果只是市井小民的我們呢？要做到讓人喜歡跟自己在一起，首先就是要懂得先關心別人的需求。這聽起來好像跟魅力沒有直接關係，不過看完書就能夠體會到，原來跟別人有良好的互動才是有魅力的原因。想想周圍那些一出現就受到注目，或是在聚會時某個一到來現場氣氛就熱絡的人，似乎也是常常會讓人開心，會懂得平時就關心他人的人。所以要有魅力，就要做到別人喜歡跟自己在一起。
讀完這本書，我不再只覺得魅力是摸不著邊的事情，它可以是天生，也可以是後天，只要經過練習，有心的人都在自己領域散發迷人的魅力。
當個有魅力的人 EMBA雜誌編輯部/文有一些人，你一看到他們，就覺得他們很重要、很特別，或者，他們一走進房間，就會成為眾人注目的焦點。也說不太上來為什麼，他們自然而然散發著一股魅力。
