2020 Operation Transformation challenges for you
Say yes

Be open to new experiences
Take your courage in your hands and get out of your comfort zone. It’s when you are out of your comfort zone that great things happen, nothing grows in the comfort zone, including you.
Find passions in your life
Whether you are a player or spectator, having passions in your life is critical. With this passion propelled by vision and purpose your will engage life with joy and enthusiasm. What are your life passions? Have you discovered them?
For me, I am passionate about our country’s mental/emotional health and wellbeing. I am passionate that good mental health is not just the presence or absence of mental illness. It’s about wellbeing, experiencing positive emotions such as peace, joy, happiness, zest, hope, awe and inspiration. I passionately want our country to have new conversations about mental health.
If you have found your passion, good for you: if you haven’t, you need to create space for it in your inner and outer world. It’s time to de- clutter your emotional baggage, overcrowded schedules and physical stuff. Clarity, energy, and time are integral in creating a passionate life. Take chances and risks to explore your passions. Now that’s transformation!
