By Barbara Sher, with Annie Gottlieb

Cindy Fox was a waitress. Now she's a pilot. Peter Johnson was a truck driver. Now he's a dairy farmer. Tina Forbes was a struggling artist. Now she's a successful one. Alan Rizzo was an editor. Now he's a bookstore owner.

• Discover your strengths and skills
  
• Turn your fears and negative feelings into positive tools
  
• Diagram the path to your goal and map out target dates for meeting it
  
• Chart your progress day by day
  
• Create a support network of contacts and sources
  
• Use a buddy system to keep you on track
