Challenge News & Updates

Dear Friends,

It’s another exciting and inspiring week here in the transformation community! Each day I get to read more transformation success stories and see more remarkable before and after photos. As hundreds of people who started their transformations at the beginning of this year continue to report their 18-week results, it just makes me that much more certain that we all have the power and ability to make wonderful, healthy changes in our lives, which make a difference in the lives of others. And that’s what transformation.com is all about.

The insight that people gain through their own transformation experience and their willingness to share with others is such a big part of the life energy of our community. I want to thank everyone who has shared their journey so far, and also encourage others to do so. Everyone in this community has something valuable to contribute, and in that important way, we are all equal here

If you haven’t signed up for Round 2 of the Transformation Challenge, now’s the time to do so. You can begin now. However, to accommodate those who are still completing Round 1, I have extended the deadline for Round 2 from May 25 to Monday, June 29, 2009. That’s the last day for beginning Round 2. For complete rules and more information on the coursework – the 18 Assignments, click here

If you’ve had good success in Round 1, accepting the Round 2 Challenge can help you continue your progress by building on the momentum you have. If you’ve never signed up before, or if you’ve signed up and were not able to complete the first challenge, now’s your chance to take it all the way from start to finish, and enjoy the uplifting results!

Challenge Q&A

Q: How much does it cost to enter the challenge?

A: There is no entry fee – no charge of any kind.  I’ve created this community as a way to give back to the people who’ve supported me and my work over the past 20 years. It’s a pleasure for me to donate my time, energy, and what knowledge I have accumulated over the past couple decades to such a worthy cause; I can’t think of anything that our nation needs now more than a transformation of our health and well-being. I truly believe that we can transform the nation from worst to first within our lifetime, and quite possibly within 10 years.  Seeing this vision through is worth so much more than any amount of money.

Q: How is the Transformation Challenge different from Body-for-LIFE?

A: There’s no doubt that Body-for-LIFE helped many (over 1 million) people improve their physical health.  The basic elements of that program definitely worked. Over the last 10 years, through scientific research, exploring the world's healing and wisdom traditions, and by having the opportunity to learn from people from all walks of life, I’ve become quite clear of some other aspects of recovering and renewing health and well-being, and I’ve incorporated those into the new transformation teachings.  

It’s clear that the deeper we internalize this process of making healthy changes – doing the work to better ourselves, while holding the intention of making a difference in the lives of others, the more sustainable and authentic our results become. What I’ve discovered is that some people who’ve had success with Body-for-LIFE but who went about it as a mechanical process, were unable to sustain their good results. With transformation, the objective is to not just go through the motions, but embody the process of inner transformation so that we literally become it. And in turn, we become the message. This is the way to Be the Change.  

And so throughout the 18 assignments in this course, we make steady and significant improvements, even breakthroughs, in terms of our own awareness.  And as we discover more about our interior self, we not only have the opportunity to create a healthier body, but we have the opportunity to develop healthier thoughts, actions, perceptions, and beliefs. And through the community interaction, we get to practice each day, one of the most important elements of true transformation and that is making a difference in the lives of others. By reaching out to help lift others up with our support, encouragement, and friendship, we learn and put into action compassion, empathy, and care.

Q: What do the designations Champion, Level 2 Transformer, Challenger, and Member mean?

A: Champion is an indicator that that Transformation Member has completed a past Challenge round and was honored for their accomplishments and their example. A Level II Transformer indicates a member of the community who has finished a prior 18-week challenge. Challenger is an indicator of someone who has accepted the Transformation Challenge. And Member means a person in the community who has not yet accepted a Challenge but is involved in the community.

The main purpose of these designations is to help other members of the community, especially newcomers, see what each person's experience level is.

That being said, I feel like it’s important to remember that everyone here is considered equally important. The key to making all this work is for all of us to humbly accept our tremendous ability to transform our own lives, and to also accept the responsibility to reach out and make a difference in the lives of others. People who received honors from prior Transformation Challenge achievements including the various Champions, are not the only ones in the community who have inspiring stories and insight to share. As I’ve mentioned, each day more and more people in the community finish their first 18-week Challenge and so the collective body of wisdom around here just continues to grow and grow.

Remember, this is first and foremost a support community, and that makes it very important that we each participate by supporting, encouraging, understanding, and helping one another. You don’t need to have a “title” to do that.  It’s a power that we all have and which I believe we should utilize as often as possible.  

Q: Who can start a group? Do I have to be in a group to participate in the Challenge?

A: The Transformation Community itself is the primary group.  Together we make up the one Transformation Team.

Secondary groups, within the overall community, can serve the purpose of bringing transformation friends closer together for camaraderie, support, encouragement, and accountability. Anyone in the community can start a group. There is no official approval required. There’s no panel or council that you need to get an okay from. Since everyone in the community has something to offer, this opportunity is made equally available to each and every member.

Groups can be a secondary meeting place for folks who share a common denominator like those in the younger generation, folks over 50, people in recovery from addiction, etc. They can be geographic like transformation friends from Chicago, Austin, Dallas, or the Rocky Mountain Region. Groups can have local, in-person meetings which are a wonderful addition to our online fellowship. And people who feel confident that they have something to offer others who are going through the challenge process can also start a group. 

Our groups have no official endorsement from me or transformation.com. They are formed with the intention of helping people work through the 18 assignments, complete the Challenge, and achieve the result of becoming healthier and happier.

If you do participate in a group or groups, be careful not to isolate and disconnect yourself from the rest of the community. Whenever this happens, people miss out on the opportunity to make new friends, and be a part of the whole community and its collective spirit.  

Q: Where can I learn more about the Challenge, the site, and the community?

A: A great resource that I recommend very highly is the link directory in the forums.  

Also be sure to tune in to Transformation Talk Radio each Thursday night at 7:00 PM PT (10:00 PM ET). The radio show is broadcast right here on transformation.com for FREE; just click the RADIO tab to access that feature.  During the shows and after is a pretty sizable and lively gathering of community members in the chat room who help each other out.  It’s also a fun time to meet new friends and to ask for help if you need it.  

This week, we’ll have the opportunity to learn from some more inspiring real life heroes who’ve made courageous changes in their lives and are already inspiring others as a result. You can call in and ask questions at 1-347-308-8056. I learn something valuable from each person who shares their experience and I think you will too. So please join us this Thursday night.

-----

It’s always an honor and a pleasure to have each and every one of you here, participating in the transformation community.  My intention is to be of service to you and to help you enjoy an inspiring and exciting transformation experience of your own.

Sincerely,
Sig
Bill Phillips

With this site and all your teachings and many success stories I truly belive you are empowering those around you, including all of us on here who are taking this challenege on to become the proof that it starts with one...and it is turning into literally thousands. There's no doubt in my mind that this community, through your hard work, can make lasting changes and be the inspiration to the masses out there struggling in various ways. Jamie

brendalee wrote 302 Days Ago

Thanks to everyone in this community. I spent transformation 1 falling on and off the nutrition wagon. When I sat down and evaluated what I have achieved, I realized that I've learned to get up and get going with consistent exercise, to be positive, and to never give up. I haven't lost ANY weight due to my nutritional train wreck, but I've learned to come back to this community every time I fall and be reinspired. I am starting round 2 with full faith that today could be my miracle.

Bill, you are the example of the good Book's challenge to "bear one another's burdens" Many thanks for the transformation program. I still can't believe I signed up for it (thanks to the subtle AND outspoken examples I learned about you through JLorren and hubby, Bob) I finally just HAD to jump in and join in the excitement! I just finished and posted my first assignment. Even though I'm 74 years young I feel like a kid again going to school! Just don't remember where I put my lunch sack! My family is still in shock and I'm trying to recover from this decision myself. Thanks again. Jodi (JoleneO) I can't believe I AM ACTUALLY ENJOYING EXERCISE!

Greetings Bill, Thanks for the update and providing the quesitons and answers to clarify the process. Thanks for extending the date to get in on round 2 - I didn't start until February and I was planning on continuing after round 1 anyway so this is good to know that I can go right into round 2 for another fun journey! I love Dusty's post too funny. I plan on being around here for quite sometime too:) Lori

Thank you, Bill! This is such an amazing opportunity for everyone to become involved in, and the fact that it's FREE is amazing. It's so much more than a weight loss program. I can't even begin to tell you how much negative baggage I've left behind after these first 18 weeks. On Monday I'll be starting Round 2, and I can't wait to move on to the next new level. I love this Transformation Community! You are incredible for allowing God to work through you like you do! May God continue to pour out His wondrous gifts and blessings to you....Teresa

I feel entering a 2nd (or 3rd) round is an important step in making Transformation a lifestyle and not just a challenge! I'm finishing my 2nd round and beginning my 3rd soon... my prior health concerns are gone, I'm off all (9) prescription meds, I'm strong, in shape, challenged and inspired by Captain Bill and this wonderful community! Go beyond "good enough", overcome adversity, overcome health problems... be the change! You have the strength to suceed!

stingraystripe wrote 305 Days Ago

Bill - too funny, as my wife and I were discussing the differences between BFL and Transformation last night! Having followed BFl for so long, I initally had some doubts about what Transformation offered me. Now, being 8 weeks into the Transformation challenge, I have a deep appreciation for the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of all of this. And that's where I'm finding the reallly "heavy lifting". It's a phenomenal experience and I can't believe how much I'm growing from this every day. Thank you for your leadership in this amazing experience! It's all so very blessed!

bodyandsoul2 wrote 305 Days Ago

Thanks for extending the date Bill! That really means a lot to me so I can put my last focus into ending round 1 and put a fresh focus on Round 2. Thanks for all you do for us and providing us with T.com! My life has changed because of you:)

Thanks Bill for clearing that up for me!! I must say that I wasn't too sure where I would be headed for the next round... Although I've completed the first round with great results, I didn't complete all the assignments and won't likely be sending in my packet. My main goal for round 2 will be to finish what I've started and to send in my packet!! As for groups... sheesh... I think I'll just stick with the group I'm with now: Mark's Accountability Group here I come!! Mark, you were a great pilot for round 1... can I hop on your plane for round 2??!! Love to all of you!

Bill, Thank you for helping me to find a new life and a new way of looking at everything around me. My life is so full of joy now. I had been through years of searching for my purpose in life, but never finding the real me...The real me is someone who wants to help others as well as constantly change for the better...Who would have thought that I could have found that on a website? This community can and I believe will change the world as we know it. No doubt in this old skepics mind...

Mark wrote 305 Days Ago

Dear all: Transformation.com is becoming a family. Our family life during the transformation challenges will be like an airplane flight. Before the plane takes off, the pilots have a flight plan. They know exactly where they are going and start off in accordance with their plan. Our plan can be the picture that has not been taken yet. Bill say’s…”Take out a blank sheet of paper and draw a rectangle in the middle and describe that photo image you would love to see. And around that, write down a dozen words/phrases that paint the inner picture. And again, be totally honest… how would you truly like to feel then?” This rectangle and description can be our flight plan! But during the course of the flight, wind, rain, turbulence, air traffic, human error, and other factors act upon our plane. We will move it slightly in different directions so that most of the time our plane will not even be on the prescribed flight. Weather systems or unusually heavy air traffic may even cause major deviations. Some of our turbulence may be times of stress, times of conflict or painful times, etc. Our family (T.com) can be “on course” when we communicate daily, share our experiences, learn together & push each other to reach higher. We will be “on course” when we plan together as a group while still respecting each one’s individuality and equality. We will be “on course” when we analyze Bill’s assignments and talk about our observations, perspectives and approaches. We will be “on course” when we grow as a group. But barring anything to major, our plane will arrive at its destination. Now how does that happen? During the flight, the pilots (which is us) will receive constant feedback. They receive information from instruments that read the environments, from control towers, from other airplanes and even sometimes from the stars (That’s Bill). And based on that feedback, we will make adjustments so that time and time again, we keep returning to the flight plan. The hope lies not in the deviations but in the vision, the plan, and the ability to get back on track! Bill say’s “Making healthy changes in our lives so we can make a difference in the lives of others, is what it's all about. And here on this site, you’ll meet people who are living that message each and every day. We come from all over the world to gather here at transfomation.com, to help support and encourage each other, to help one another stay inspired and motivated so we can overcome the challenges we face in order to become healthy, happy and more alive.” This next flight is about to take off. So I posted this quick reply to Bill right here, with a few words to acknowledge and my readiness for another really fun ride! Mark

PatrickC wrote 305 Days Ago

I completed my first Transformation challenge last week... I have had amazing results! The key difference for me on this program is the help in getting and keeping my mind in the right place... that was a result of this community, the assignments and honestly, the content of the assignments and the open and honest feedback from the community of transformers... we are all in this (and our lives) together and together there is nothing that can not be achieved! A massive thanks to Bill for all that he has done... and given...

tjakey wrote 305 Days Ago

Bill - Thanks so much for all that you have helped to create here. It has been a phenomenal experience for me so far and I am looking forward to finishing challenge #1 on June 13. Although I do realize that this is an ongoing lifestyle change and that my "life" learning is ongoing whether I am "officially" a part of the challenge or not, I so appreciate the extension. One thing I have so loved about this community is the "equality" that I feel here. I have been treated as equal by everyone I have communicated with while at the same time gained great insight and inspiration from so many. I am now off to sign myself up for round #2:) - Thanks again. Wishing you a magnificent and beautiful day! ---Kerri---

Thanks for the information! I love the fact that in Transformation everyone is equally valued. Some of the most inspiring people on this site to me have been "real-life heroes" and they are Challengers as well as Champions and Level II's. Thanks Bill for thinking well about us and being so considerate of everyone that's still in Round 1. Love you, love your site!!!

Hi Bill. Thank you for this clarification...the extension and the encouraging words about being equal! I love that humble spirit of yours. I am looking forward to taking it all the way from start to finish and embracing the CHANGE in my life instead of being comfortable in staying the same! I believe most of the health crisis of today are consequences of living in a world where "entitlement" is an understood value and part of the moral up bringing of todays and recent generations. WE can change that and I am looking forward to how God will use all this to do just that!! Love and blessings always my friend, Kat

Great information Bill, that is wonderful that you are extending the time for those still in round one, I am sure many will be pleased....this community is an amazing place and it has alot to do with your amazing spirit, you are truly a wonderful light to others, and like you said, we all have wisdom from within our Spiritual Self, when connected, to share with others, as a guiding light....and never really know when we are going to make a difference in someone's elses life.....I know many people have inspired me, including yourself, to be the light and give with a heart full of gratitude for just being alive....Thanks Bill, you rock! Love Thia
