 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? Because God has blessed you with the gift of free will, you can determine your own 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 speaking of someone following the Action Principles® guided by the Catholic faith. When you read inspirational passages in the Bible, books, magazines or newspapers, copy them. When you hear inspirational passages in homilies, write them down. Put everything together in a folder or box. 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. Refer 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.
