In the book I encourage people to focus on what they CAN DO, instead of what they can't do. I encourage people to see beyond their circumstances and look for more options....because there's always more options!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you look at a grain of sand, one solitary grain of sand; you might view it as being insignificant and even useless. This is certainly what I was thinking as I pondered the question, "What uses could there possibly be for a grain of sand?" What I discovered was truly amazing.....but first, let me tell you how it all began.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;How it all Started&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About two years ago I attended a seminar in which attendees were asked to brainstorm the uses for a bottle of water. Our small group of 4 people came up with a creative list of about 40 things a bottle of water could be used for. After the seminar I was conducting one of my own training events and got participants to do a similar activity, except I had a much greater challenge. "Brainstorm the uses for a grain of sand, just one grain." The group only came up with a list of half a dozen uses. Later that evening I took on the challenge myself, and came up with a list of around 30 uses. I was truly surprised. Since then my own personal list has grown to over 500 uses for a single grain of sand!! ....and I have also received ideas from people all around the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Follow my journey and be enlightened with amazing insights of how useful a single grain of sand can actually be. My hope is that through this blog I can encourage you with the thought that no matter how insignificant and small you might feel, you have all the talent and resources you need to fulfill your God-given destiny. Checkout the current list: &lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; "&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.listofuses.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;www.listofuses.blogspot.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please subscribe to my blog and continue the journey with me.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2045867838493293059-4493030964208081339?l=justonegrain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://justonegrain.blogspot.com/feeds/4493030964208081339/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2045867838493293059&amp;postID=4493030964208081339' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2045867838493293059/posts/default/4493030964208081339'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2045867838493293059/posts/default/4493030964208081339'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://justonegrain.blogspot.com/2008/10/welcome-to-my-new-blog.html' title='Welcome to my new blog!'/><author><name>Peter Sewell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09306717063840097076</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
