A life's work that is meaningful and fulfilling can be yours. These may not be secrets anymore, but they will be hard work and they will be worth the trouble.

Follow the steps in order and spend quality, quiet thinking time with each one. Take as much time as you need with each step. A life's work that is meaningful and fulfilling can be yours. Take a deep breath and get started. I'll be cheering you on each step of the way!

Step 1: Find a purpose for your life. (Otherwise you will end up with someone else's dream life.)

Step 2: Figure out what bothers you most about the world and do something about it. (This is the best path towards authentic work and it can start in your own neighborhood.)

Step 3: Determine what is most important to you. (Most of us live our lives around what others tell us is most important.)

Step 4: Align your new goals around what is most important. (These will become the roadmap for your life's direction.)

Step 5: Have a healthy perspective of yourself. (When you feel good about yourself, everything else just seems to fall into place.)

Step 6: Replace old beliefs that are no longer useful to you. (If you believe you are not smart enough, for example, start believing you are just as smart as anybody else! Now, that was easy, wasn't it?)

Step 7: Create new possibilities for your life. (Others will help you create new impossibilities; there is a big difference!)

Step 8: Figure out who you want to be when you grow up. (It's never too late to start redefining your life and your sense of self.)

Step 9: Practice living the life you want now. (You won't believe it's possible until you actually do something.)

Step 10: Figure out what you are passionate about. (What activities get you most excited about life? This is a great place to start.)
