Create for yourself an evolving document that outlines your purpose in life. Who are you ? What are your values ? What do you intend to do with your time to make your one life meaningful ? It is you who determines your future. You don't have to listen to those who say you are too old, too young, too poor, too unattractive, too uneducated or the wrong color, gender or nationality. They are not one of those who follow the " Action Principles ".
When you read inspirational passages in other books, magazines or newspapers, write them down or clip them out and keep them well. This will serve as your motivational reserve and will help you create a personal mission statement.
Your " mission statement " only has to be a few sentences or paragraphs. Refel to your mission statement periodically and don't be afraid to change it as you grow. A mission statement will help you to establish a foundation upon which you can build your dreams and goals and from which will flow your objectives and daily to-do list.
