This book is about how to ignite the fire of true desires in your soul and achieve inner freedom. About how to stay true to yourself and do what you are called to do. About finding yourself and setting goals, about failures and mistakes, about balance in life and the psychology of relationships, about overcoming fear and achieving harmony, about career and success.

After reading this book, you will get rid of many illusions:

Being competent in everything is not nearly as useful as it is believed. You achieve mastery when you focus on developing your strengths and do what brings you joy.
Life balance is a myth, and the struggle for it is even more stressful than the pursuit of it.
You don't have to achieve everything through hard work. It is wiser to choose the path of qualitative lightness, doing what gives strength. Starting with easy tasks fuels your optimism. You have less stress and more energy. You are capable of doing more. Ease is your criterion for success.
Trying not to be afraid is like trying not to be curious. Fear is inevitable and natural. It’s better to look into his eyes and find your “vitamins for the soul” that can comfort you.
Principles can ruin your life. Send them away, at least some of them.
“No” clears the way to your dream. If you feel lousy, don't tolerate it and don't look for excuses. Just stop doing what makes you feel bad. Choose the path that is in tune with your soul.
Give up your ambitions. Being clear about how you want to feel at work and in life is more important than setting goals. Clarity gives you a feeling of satisfaction and liberation.
Each of us is capable of being a creator. To be a creator means to do something with your soul. When you put your heart and soul into cooking a family meal or a party for friends, you are creating poetry.
Giving is not bad at all. Be generous. Generosity - driving force spiritual development. By giving, you make friends, become richer and healthier, love more, shine brighter and live life to the fullest.

Danielle Laporte, a popular US blogger and motivational speaker, will show you through her own story of loss and achievement and inspiring examples of other people, how to light up your life with a new light, take a step towards your dreams and be who you are.

This book is unusual and unique in its own way.

On the one hand, this is a truly women's book, written by a woman (which is very rare in the world of business literature) and exclusively for women (which is also rare).

On the other hand, this book is for strong women, where the energetic style of the author (a kind of Tom Peters in a skirt) is complemented by pragmatic tasks for independent work after each chapter.

From the author
This book is designed to help you take your dreams to the next level, revitalize them, or clarify them. I want improving your dreams to become a permanent activity for you. Floss, stretch, eat green vegetables and dream - over and over again.

Your desires reflect your true essence. If your life right now is not at all what you want, then dreams are the fuel with which you will move forward. If you want to use your strengths and capabilities to the fullest, seriously set yourself the goal of dreaming about your ideal life. Your subconscious and expressed desires are gold mines that lead to what, from your point of view, is prosperity.

There is nothing more exciting than someone being inspired by their dream. Dreaming is necessary, but it's just part of the equation. You must put the strategy into action. Passion is the wind that fills your sails, and practicality is the helm of the ship. To achieve what you want, you need both components.

Be reckless. Be afraid if necessary. But don't stop moving. Feel. Ask questions. Don’t put up with injustice against you and, for God’s sake, don’t settle for less. You are writing a movie script of your life. Wish. Light. Motor! You are a heroine embarking on an adventure. Be surprised, be renewed, be true to yourself. Now.

It takes courage to be true to yourself.

If your cherished desires There is no place in your diary, and your true characteristics are not reflected in your resume, then you are neglecting the power that integrity gives you

Don't do things you don't have a passion for.

The most valuable currency is what comes most naturally to you.

To create is to win the hearts of people by following the truth within yourself.

When do you feel wonderful? what makes you call? What activities make you feel useful, full of life, better than before?

When do you feel like, “Am I capable of more?”

What do you generously share that feels good and easy to do?

What do you do best and still feel high?

What lights the fire in you?

If you could attend 5 conferences or other events this year, which ones would you go to and what would their topics be?

What could you talk about until the night with like-minded people, and you wouldn’t run out of topics to discuss?

What activities make you feel very useful, full of life and strong?

When do you feel like a rock star, a talented participant in the business, a very cool and purposeful person? What activities most often make you feel like you belong?

What do you want to be known for?

Your goal is to be yourself!

What would your life be like if you only did easy things?

Less friction = higher speed

First figure out how you want to feel, and then do what makes you feel that way.

Knowing exactly how you want to feel is the healthiest form of confidence for you. Intentionally creating these feelings is the most creative thing you can do with your life.

What if we figured out what feelings we want to experience inside ourselves, and only then made lists of tasks?

When you are clear about how you want to feel, you focus your decisions on what is truly important to you.

FOR YOUR nervous system It's more helpful if you truly believe your description of the current state of your career or life. pronouncing it.

Forget about impression and focus on truthfulness.

Let people see the scope of your work. You can be modest and still show your abilities, present the facts in an interesting way. Facts + feelings = really exciting.

Fear will tell you to shrink - open up. Fear will tell you to go ahead - retreat and wait. Fear will tell you not to rock the boat - dive.

Look back at last year and make it clear what went wrong with it. What turned out to be ineffective, caused irritation and indignation, was a burden to you, bent down to the ground with a heavy burden? What will you stop doing right now?

I am mine best work: A collection of road maps, reports, recipes, pictures and prayers from the battlefield.

Those who are called “creative individuals” in fact simply know how to come up with more combinations of ideas, find interesting ideas faster and are ready to try them in practice. The problem is that most schools and organizations fail to break these habits.

What do people experience because of me?

By smoothing out your outstanding characteristics, you will merge with the gray mass. Lady Gaga: I have never met someone who lives a courageous and successful life—by “successful” I mean thriving, kindness, and a sense of purpose—who apologizes for their perfectionism, activism, tenacity, or other traits that are sometimes perceived as negative. There will always be something about you that will seem too much to someone: too big, too loud, too soft, very avant-garde.

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, not a second-rate version of someone else.

Take a video of yourself - you will understand your mistakes. This is an inexpensive method to teach yourself.

List role models. Then their characteristics and what unites them.

I need to find out what nourishes me and what exhausts me!

When you have a clear understanding of what brings you joy, time management becomes a means of self-expression rather than self-suppression.

Your employment is the result of your choices.

The true joy of life is to dedicate yourself to a goal of which you recognize the greatness: to expend all your strength before you are thrown into the trash heap, to be a real force of nature and not an anxious, selfish and pathetic bunch of ailments and grievances complaining that the world doesn't try to make you happy.

If you decide to do what you are passionate about, positive changes will occur in different areas of your life. Your career will fulfill your passions, your living room will begin to match your ideas of an ideal interior, your friends will share your beliefs, and wealth (which can be defined in many ways) will allow you to maintain freedom. It takes courage to be true to yourself. Sometimes it is expressed as a loud statement, sometimes as a rebellion or a loving vow. It can also take the form of a silent conviction that can be read in your eyes. Being true to yourself - whether publicly declared or unnoticed - will allow you to thoroughly shake up your beliefs, methods of action and limitations. Its power will allow you to do what some consider impossible. Being true to yourself is the foundation of integrity and honesty. Achieving it is often difficult and not always painless, but only it will allow you to truly live full life.

• Life balance is a delusion, the struggle for which provokes stress greater than the desire for this balance.
• Hard work is not worth doing a lot of things. Your calling is the job that comes with the least difficulty. Your business is a highly paid hobby and nothing more. By choosing this path, you will spend a minimum of vital energy and experience less stress. Lightness and ease are the color of success.
• Principles will not make you a better person. They will only ruin your life. Forget about principles - if not all, then at least some.
• Fear is good. Fear is synonymous with curiosity, and curiosity is the key to knowledge. The latter will open new horizons before your eyes.

• Ambition is bad, forget about it. You must have a clear sense of your purpose, mission, talents and possible success. Ambitions are illusions, nothing more. They cloud your mind, causing you to think about what is harmful and unnecessary.
• Create. To be a creator means to apply all your potential and soul to your work. Write your poetry even if no one can read it.
• Be generous, believe in karma. He who gives receives double. Generosity is an indicator of spiritual development and strong-willed qualities. By giving, you become a better person.
