This morning I spoke with  Patti Digh, author of Life is a Verb.

In October 2003, Patti’s stepfather was diagnosed with lung cancer. He died 37 days later. That led Patti to ask herself every morning: What would I be doing today if I had only 37 days left to live? The answers changed her life- and led to her book  and the creation of her award-winning blog 37days.net. 

Patti suggests 6 practices to jump-start a meaningful life:
Say Yes
Trust Yourself
Slow Down
Be Generous
Speak Up
Love More
