In that same email came a set of four steps to follow for one year that would make you a different person, living a rich, rewarding, and meaningful life.  These are the steps:

1. Remember that your rewards in life are in exact proportion to your service. Increase your service to others and your rewards will increase in proportion.

2. Give your work a larger percent of your capabilities and talents to serve “the boss.”

3. Treat others in every facet of your life as you want others to treat you.  If you expect others to give you excellent products and services for the money you and your family earn, make certain that your job is handled as excellently as it is possible for you.

4. Find some way every day in which your work can be improved to benefit “the boss.”

What I liked about these steps is that it does not matter whom you consider your boss.  Whether it is your boss at work, yourself, or your higher power, these steps can apply to them all.  If you are needing and desiring a change in your life, try these steps for a year and see how your life changes.
