Don't Be a Spectator -- Participate!

We’re raised to be spectators, and too often we spend our time staring at screens, day and night. But the real magic is in interactive experiences. They make us happier than material thing; they are the experiences that can't be compared to someone else’s. So instead of just watching Dancing with the Stars, sign up for a ballroom dance class, or have a spontaneous dance party with your kids. You’ll be on your way to a more memorable life.
