Outpouring of Volunteerism in the Media:
Discerning TV viewers might notice a recurrent theme on their favorite shows this week. The doctors on ABC's "Private Practice" give homeless teens free checkups. On NBC's "30 Rock," Kenneth Parcell tries to adopt every dog at a shelter. And two characters on CBS' "Numb3rs" discuss joining Big Brothers Big Sisters. The outpouring of volunteerism is no coincidence. Rather than just "running a bunch of stoic PSAs," media executives of all major TV channels came together to embed messages into story lines. It's an unprecedented call for service. [more]

You give it thought.... Deeper thought.  You embrace it or toss it aside but you do so after pausing - after reflecting on it for more than an inattentive moment. Thought is important because it is thought that generally precedes action. Pausing and reflecting - investing thought beyond an instant twice more each week on a particular topic creates more than 100 additional possibilities of action and /or improvement each year! PAUSE AND REFLECT - DEEPER - TWICE WEEKLY.
