From the Inside Flap

Never-Too-Late Tips for Making Your Dream Come True:
1. Create a mental picture of what your life would look like if you were living your dream. The mind thinks in pictures, so make a "mental movie" of your dream come true. Play and replay this movie often.
2. Manage your motivation. Read books; watch DVDs; listen to CDs that help keep your enthusiasm, energy, and commitment high.
3. Keep your eyes and ears open. Opportunity is everywhere, if you're alert enough to recognize it.
4. Practice active gratitude. Take a few minutes each day to notice the things in your life that you're grateful for--the place you live, your car, your pets, treasured possessions, friends, your job, etc. Appreciation of what you have brings more good things into your life.
5. Ask for what you want. You might be surprised how often you get it.
