More Americans put families ahead of work. Family is important to Patrick Snow. He is a speaker, coach and author of Creating Your Own Destiny. Employees used to be willing to sacrifice because of things like stock options. Now they’re fed up. They realize that family is the only stabilizing force in today’s turbulent economy. Making time for family isn’t just important for a few employees like Snow -- it’s a growing priority for many workers disillusioned by layoffs, corporate scandal, and waning corporate loyalty. Seventy percent of employees don’t think there is a healthy balance between work and personal life.

Are you unhappy at work? Do you want more out of life? Do you want to experience true freedom? Are you really free? Are you doing each and every day what your heart is calling you to do in both your professional and personal life? .... Even successful people aren’t immune from believing they’re "trapped" -- most people I know who make a lot of money become slaves to that financial success; the more they make, the more they spend, and thus the more additional money they need to make! I’ve come from a very modest middle class family, and I’ve also achieved financial successes far greater than most people. At times, I have also severely struggled financially and not known where my next paycheck was coming from. My faith in God has helped me overcome many adversities in my life. I have learned that money in and of itself doesn’t make a man or woman free. …. I believe we become free when we create and then follow our destiny. What is destiny? Webster’s Dictionary defines the word as meaning fate. Look up fate in the dictionary and you’ll see that fate means the supposed force that predetermines events. I believe that this supposed force is our MIND (or brain). If we use our mind properly by taking action and executing our ideas and the opportunities presented to us in the way that we are capable of, then WE truly can become the supposed force that predetermines the events that occur in our lives. Thus destiny means to me the ultimate purpose (fate) each of us has here on Earth. Destiny is what each of us, as unique individuals, are put here on Earth to do, to become. Our destiny resides within us. It is our freedom, the great potential we have, the supposed force waiting only for our minds to unleash it. By the end of this book, I believe that you can discover your destiny. You will also learn how you can apply my ultimate Success Secret for life. This secret will show you how to achieve what my subtitle promises: "How to Get Exactly What You Want Out of Life." .... As Robert Ringer stated in his book, Million Dollar Habits: "When your mind believes something to be true, it stimulates your senses to draw to you the things, people, and circumstances necessary to convert the mental image it houses into its physical reality." I believe this is how you create your own destiny. Your dreams can come true, in other words. As Abraham Lincoln once said: "You become what you think about." .... This book contains 10 chapters that will help you create and realize your destiny -- and, I firmly believe, allow you to have more time, more money, more freedom, more health, more love, and more happiness. I call these 10 chapter headings my Success Road Map. This concise road map has been written to show you how to be courageous in your endeavors and proceed in a manner in which you are truly capable. There is a saying by Ralph Waldo Emerson that goes: "Do not follow where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail." …. I want to challenge you to think like a world champion. If you knew that under no circumstance could you fail, what is it that you would attempt to do with the rest of your life? …. I am going to offer you one more quote, from Julius Caesar, before we begin: "For lack of training, they lacked knowledge. For lack of knowledge, they lacked confidence. For lack of confidence, they lacked victory!" In Creating Your Own Destiny, I am going to help give you the training, knowledge, and confidence to win in your own game of life! I wish you well on your new journey in pursuit of creating your own destiny… Are you ready to begin? Good -- let’s go! Patrick Snow Bainbridge Island, WA; January 2004
