This might be the most important post we’ve ever made. It’s that important because we believe it could impact a million lives – but it starts with 365 activators. It starts today. The only activprayer we’re calling on right now is to take 2 minutes and read what follows…because it only happens with you. It’s a new year, and a perfect opportunity for us to stamp this year with inspired action – every single day. 2015 is the year where we’re going to dedicate each and every day: A Daily AP. In order to do that as a TEAM, we want to give 365 members (or gyms, or partners, or families) of our community the opportunity to own one day this year as an activprayer. We could post Daily AP’s ourselves, but that’s not activating like we can. You’re the activators. What does this mean? It means that if there is a special day on the calendar that you’d like to call your own and which youll allow us to make the official Daily AP, then it’s yours. You call out an intention, you share your inspired action, and you design the way it works. We only ask that you keep in mind that your Daily AP will be very public - were going out all this year to promote these Daily APs to the world. We’re going to help you activate the entire community and beyond through media and partnerships – to discover, co-create, and activate thousands of others. If you claim a day, it’s yours. First come, first served. We’ll remember it every single year...even when our community has grown from 10,000 to 10 million. It’s our way of saying thank you to all of YOU who have been a part of activprayer from Day 1. Youve made it what it is. Youve helped give it shape and form, and who will continue to be leaders as we move out on even bigger initiatives in 2015. They’re big, because the spirit is big – and the Spirit is moving. Youre coming with us. We have already seen certain dates take on extra meaning and power over the course of the last year: sometimes they have marked the passing of a loved one, the anniversary of a world event, a milestone in the activprayer community (like the ACTIVEIGHT), or the birth of a child. We want to know which dates are important to YOU, and together we will join inspired actions to those intentions on your lead. A few dates are already taken. On national memorial days like Veteran’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, or the 4th of July, history has already given us our content. By remembering these lives with our intentions, we make them present. In a similar way, Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, and other major liturgical days are already set aside, too. In addition to these, there will be certain months like Breast Cancer Awareness month where we will be standing behind certain themes for the month, as well as certain designated days where all of our AP’s and money raised will be donated to a certain charity: there will always be one day entirely dedicated to Cystic Fibrosis, in honor of Zoe, and there will always be a day dedicated to 19 Firefighters in Arizona who lost their lives fighting a wildfire – in fact, an activprayer workout has been retired in their honor, and it will always be done on that day. Theres a rhythm of life, and activprayer is fitness that honors it. Each day is going to require someone to be inspired and rise up to lead the community. It doesnt mean everyone has to act for that specific intention or do your specific action - actually, the best activprayer is one that leaves room for the spirit to work as each one is moved - but it does mean that you set the tone and provide the seed, and that you share with others something that is on your heart. Welcome, 2015: 365 days of AP intentions and inspired actions that our community – and the whole world – can draw inspiration and ideas from to fuel the fire. This is only the beginning. Would you nominate and take responsibility for a day? Please let us know your day and your intention, and we’ll mark the calendar. Its that simple. You can post your day and intention here in the comments; or, if youd rather keep it a surprise, then simply email [email protected] with it. Well confirm that its an open day and that its yours. It starts with January. The first 30 days of anything is always the hardest, but it soon becomes a habit. Let’s make it one. It’s a daily inspiration. It’s a daily reminder to re-dedicate ourselves to the things that matter most to us and the people we love. If we do this, we’ll begin to give the entire year shape, texture, and context: the texture of inspired action dedication to intentions greater than self. Before we know it, even the most ordinary days will truly become extraordinary. The Daily AP for today, January 1, will be posted shortly. Now… Let’s Freakkin Go.
