pACT
In ALIGN, as you may recall, you were invited to be the coauthor. In ACT, you’ve been promoted! You are the author. Oh yes, I’ll be here to coach you along, but you are taking the pen in your hand and writing large.
It all begins with your pACT. A pACT is about taking the insights, knowledge, power, and identity you discovered in ALIGN and deciding how you want to manifest them in the world. How will you impact reality by your action? As you begin ACT, start to think about what you want to do. No need to get too specific or detailed yet. That’s the purpose of this book: to help you do just that—define your goal, make a plan, take first steps, follow through, and achieve success.
To begin thinking about your pACT, consider this:
A pACT is personal—it’s something you want to do for yourself, not to impress or please others.
A pACT is proactive and positive—it moves you in the direction of your heart’s desire.
A pACT is precise in its desired outcome—the plan will flex to make it possible to get there.
A pACT is purposeful—it’s about acting in a way that helps you to create the life you want.
A pACT is powerful—it’s a commitment to yourself to be responsible for your impact.
A pACT is present tense—it’s about doing something now, no procrastination.
A pACT might be a personal or professional goal or a combination of both. It may be about getting healthy, finding a new job, creating better relationships, taking up a new sport or hobby, starting a business or charity, traveling or writing, keeping a promise to yourself that you made years ago, making amends, getting your house or life organized, and so on and so on.
Close your eyes. Take a few long, deep breaths—in through your mouth, out through your nose. What do you want to do? What do you long for? What is your heart’s desire? What do you wish you could change in your life?

About the Book
When it comes to your life, do you let the urgent take precedence over the important? Do the days slip by with lots of activity, and yet the big things—those dreams you’ve carried for years—lie dormant, slipping further and further from reach? Are you ready to be honest with yourself? Are you ready to stake a claim and make a commitment? Are you ready to manifest your thoughts as concrete action in the world? Whatever it is that your heart desires, are you ready to get started, to close the gap between wishful thinking and deliberate action?
It’s not the lack of time that’s stopping you, it’s the lack of purpose and structure. In ACT, the second book in the ALIGN-ACT-ACHIEVE series, author Jen Smith builds on the foundation laid in ALIGN to help you move into action. She joins purpose with structure to provide a road map for a fun, inspiring, and intentional journey toward the future you want.
