We have now reached the Final of our Series! Thank you for following!

Step 46. Volunteer

A useful way to help others is to volunteer. Time is the most important resource that you have and the idea of offering this prized possession is a unique experience. Offer help at a kids or old people center, in schools or churches.

Step 47. Ups and downs

You won’t feel permanently motivated because you have ups and downs in your life. The important thing is to keep your ground and let go of the moments of anger and frustration.

Step 48. Your contribution

What will you leave behind? Have you ever thought that the decent life you have involves a feed-back when you go out, when you leave the country or when you die? Decide to make your future activities as constructive as possible so that your place in the world will gain a higher value.

Step 49. Enjoy the ride

While you follow your plan thoroughly, don’t forger to smile and enjoy every moment of your life.

Don’t focus only on your goal because otherwise you’ll lose your motivation and your strength to move on.

Step 50. Start in the right direction

Maybe you don’t realize this, but it’s not a long time from now until you get the success you want. The simple fact that you had the patience to read this article is a step forward on your way to success. Now all that’s left is to get through the 49 steps.

Step 41. Gather your favorite quotes

Whether you find them in your favorite books, or from the movies on TV or you hear them from your favorite stars, quotes can motivate you. Don’t hesitate to write it down every time you find yourself in a quote.

Step 42. Learn from your mistakes

When things don’t work like you want them to, don’t waste the opportunity to learn from the mistakes. Get closer and closer to the solutions you want by trying to repair the past mistakes.

Step 43. Manifest your curiosity

The world is full of amazing things that are ready to be discovered. Be curious and read, discuss, observe, listen and uncover the mysteries that surround you.

Step 44. Around children

Spending time with kids can be relaxing, you can forget about worries and problems because it’s pleasant to remind yourself that you were once a kid. As adults, we’ve learned to hide our true feelings and we have a reticent attitude. Release your imagination and enjoy life!

Step 45. Focus on those around you

There is nothing more useful than directing your attention on those around you and learning from their problems. Offer support to those who need you and, together, find solutions for all the problems you face.

Step 36. Opportunities

What you get offered today, it’s possible that tomorrow will be out of the picture. In other words, things change! Take advantage of the opportunities that come your way.

Step 37. Use your time wisely

What we want most in life, but we lose every day is TIME. That’s why, the steps you follow have to be taken wisely. Think about what activities waste your time and make the right choice! Take advantage of every minute and every second of your life!

Step 38. Be active!

Schedule any type of activity outside school or work and keep yourself in top shape. You will feel full of energy, motivated and confident.

Step 39. Healthy diet

A healthy life means the right diet and many physical exercises. Give up on fatty foods that have many E’s and focus on salads, fruit and fresh vegetables and choose white meat.

Step 40. Get some rest!

Our advice is never to skip your beauty sleep and to make sure you get at least 7 hours of sleep at night. This way you’ll work passionately and you’ll successfully accomplish your goals.

Step 31. Use the library!

However trivial it may seem, the library can help you. Books offer you another perspective on life by providing you with a variety of solutions. If you don’t like reading, you should try raising your potential. Online libraries are also a solution…

Step 32. Create a strategy

When you know exactly what you want, you also need to know how your going to get it. A faint idea about the road you’re going to take in order to achieve success isn’t going to help you. Build up a clear strategy and you’ll be able to take pride in the results.

Step 33. Use the term “limit”

Don’t only set a deadline for your plan, dream, desire, but also many other moments in which to think about how to start the change. Without a clear deadline, your strategy will go down the drain.

Step 34. Useful tools

To accomplish your goals, you will need a few useful tools – a calendar, a graph… These will help you meet your deadlines and cross the finish line with your head held high.

Step 35. Smart moves

Determination is the way to change – but not any action has the same effect. For example, if you choose to disregard nutrition it’s a wrong move! The important thing is to make smart choices and follow them your whole life.

Step 25. If not now, then when?

This is the simplest way to start you plan to change. Ask yourself: “If not now, then when?” and you will realize that now is the time to make the first step and, maybe, the most important one.

Step 26. The first step

One single step in the right direction and you will be able to get your plans and your big dream moving! Write on a piece of paper what you have to do and get a move on!

Step 27. The truth about change

You will fail! Not once or twice, but many times…the important thing is not to you’re your confidence, patience and energy! You may be thinking that this is a negative advice but above all you must not forget to be realistic.

Step 28. We all need a day off!

To keep you moral and energy up, usually, you need a day off in which to get back your strength! When things seem to go nowhere and you feel exhausted, all you have to do is take a day off. Go for a walk in the park, go away on a trip with your partner or go to the countryside to see your grandparents…

Step 29. Choose what you want to do

With all the daily worries you forget about the most important things – what do you want more in life. You have to choose to think about the changes you want to make in life until your dreams won’t be left in the past.

Step 30. Subscribe to magazines, newspapers, newsletters

Information is the key to success. To keep yourself in the game, you need to have access to any type of information. If you have the possibility, subscribe to magazines, newsletters and look for information that is useful to you.

Dreaming is the one thing we can all do and—better yet—within the realm of dreams, there is no race, no color, no gender, nor creed. There is no time, no trends to follow. It’s in our dreams that we are all equal and we are all great. It is a place where we can all be in charge and create the future.Michael Jackson may have taught us never to say “goodbye,” but he also taught: never stop dreaming!

Michael Jackson saying : “In a world filled with  despair, we must still dare to dream, and in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe” and “Let us dream of tomorrow where we can truly love from the soul, and know love as the ultimate truth at the heart of all creation”

Step 22

A well known technique used to gain experience is gathering information about the lives of aged people that were successful and knew how to enjoy it. Read autobiographic books and learn from others.

This is one technique that you should try. Like with any other things you need to be patient, but at a certain point you will start asking yourself: “What Mr / Mrs X… would have done in this situation…?”- you will borrow traits from the persons you admire the most. So if you want to attract money, read billionaire biographies; if you want to be at peace with something read spiritual people biographies and so forth.
