When it comes to your own personal story and experiencing a meaningful life, do you feel like things are coming up short? Even if you have a packed schedule, you might still wake up feeling restless, bored or even hopeless. Know that you are not alone. Too many people have lost interest in their own stories. But in this Business Made Simple six-part limited series, we want to help you change that. We want to help you become a hero on a mission. In part three of our series, Donald Miller breaks down how to create a morning routine that gives every day meaning, all from his new book Hero on a Mission. Donald walks through the steps to take to propel you towards a meaningful life, including starting your day by reading your eulogy (trust us on this one), reviewing your vision for the future, and knowing exactly what you want to accomplish. Today's conversation will show how to begin each day with intention and purpose. When you order Hero On a Mission on Amazon, Audible, or wherever you buy books, you get free instant access to our upcoming Hero on a Mission LIVE event on January 27, where Donald Miller will personally walk you through how to create your life plan and morning ritual so you can experience a deep sense of meaning every day.
