Welcome to the Dream Saver Project

Zig Ziglar once said; “you can have anything you want in life, if you just help enough other people get what they want.”

I really believe that helping others achieve their dreams is a pathay to realizing your own.  It affirms your own abundant resources and nurtures an attitude off gratitude.

If you've been following my current route of reinvention at Act2Reinvent.com then you know that this journey mirrors my desire to empower transformation in the lives of other women 40+ who are reinventing themselves from the inside out. 

For those of you just meeting me, the backstory is that in early February I decided that the best way to achieve my own personal transformation was to enlist the help of a Dream Team.  The result of that aha moment is Act2Reinvent an Online Reality TV Show & interactive community for women 40+. 

Needless to say there are days when I am ecstatic to be a co-creator of such an awesome entity and then there are others when I think I must be certifiably crazy!

It was in one of these slightly darker moments when I realized I needed a little inspiration.  So my sister & I decided to re-watch the Secret.  While watching, I was thinking about how best to resolve some challenges involving money using the principles being discussed and/or alluded to in the movie.

Well, whoohoooo, wouldn't you know I suddenly remembered that I owned a beautiful, inspirational screensaver which I had designed to complement the book of affirmations Divine Flow that I published in late 2007.  This screensaver features affirmations with complementary healing artwork by Mindy Sommers. For nearly a year, this inspirational tool lay dormant in my computer!

Fast upon the heels of this realization came the question how can I use this to help others as well?  The answer has become the Dream Saver Project.  As the idea began to unfold, I could envision the circle of transformation started with Act2Reinvent rippling outward in an even wider circumference.

When the "a secret treasure" screensaver was created we never imagined that it could be a tool of transformation for women globally.  But that is just how I envision it today.  I am offering the screensaver for sale and for every one sold, I will set aside 30% of the selling price for the Dream Saver Project. 

The money will then be used to fund awards to women reinventing themselves.  Twice yearly the Dream Saver Project will award stipend(s) to women who complete the application & review process which I will outline in a separate post.

You may already be thinking that 30% of nothing will not fund very many awards.  Well, I have thought of that as well.  This is where you and everyone you know can help.  I am challenging 10,000 (or more) people to puchase the screensaver between now and February 28, 2010 when the first awards will be dispersed.  By my calculations we would have an award pool of $40,000.00 minimum.

We'll track the progress on this site and on the social networks.   We'll meet the women who apply and the women who secure awards.  We'll share their dreams and support them in realizing them. 

Are you with me?  Help me to help others reach their reinvention goals.
