                  what your mission is: For the next two weeks, every time you
                  notice you’re feeling good about life and about yourself,
                  take a moment to write out the answers to the following questions:</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.youmeworks.com/idontknowwhattodowithmylife.html"><FONT size="+1">1.

                  as you can in the next two or three weeks. Then go through them
                  and see if you can find the commonalities. What are some general
                  themes common to most or all of them? Try to find out what actions
                  make you happy. Happiness is an indicator of where your interests
                  and purposes lie buried. It sometimes helps to have a trusted
                  friend look them over too. She might see something you don’t
                  see.</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.youmeworks.com/idontknowwhattodowithmylife.html"><FONT face="Arial">Whatever you find as a theme common to
                  the times you are happy and animated, you can assume it is in
                  the direction of your mission in life. It is in a direction that
                  is right for you.</FONT></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4450F025-56CA-4A2F-A5FE-149D416B085B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
