Mind Map:

This is a \"Mind Map\". There are many types available at a variety of prices. I like this one because it\'s online, I can share it and the price is very reasonable for what it can do.

This is from Mindmeister.

By no means do you need to use this particular brand, but I do highly recommend you use some type of mind map for this type of work.

As a bit of a caveat. I have to tell you that we don\'t support any particular software so whatever you choose be sure it fits within your technical capabilities. That\'s a polite way of saying \"Don\'t email me with questions about how to use the map.\" : )

Right Now:

Right now your current situation is the product of the practices you\'ve been in for the past 5, 10 or more years.

Your future will be dictated by the practices you\'ll be in for the next 20 + years.

And it\'s likely that much of what you spend your time, money and attention on right now is more by default rather than intention...

...and since it\'s not likely that we\'ll all just show up in our old age and say...

\"Wow! I just happen to get all that right\" we must occasionally stop!

...and take inventory of where we are, where we\'re heading and what changes must occur to ensure we live a good life now and for the rest of our lives.

Braces:

So ambition is like a set of braces. When we first \"put it on\" it feels a little uncomfortable.

But. As time goes by, things like our attention, time and effort begin to align with our intention to live a good life.

Ambition gets easier as life gets better.

I\'m saying all of this because when people first start this work it can feel overwhelming, like I just added a lot of things to do in your life. But. In reality all I\'m really doing here is making you aware of what already exists.

Ya - at first it feels like a lot, but once you get it sorted it calms life down.

We\'re pretty much all the same:

It\'s likely the idea of a shared list of concerns may alarm you. We all like to think of ourselves as unique snow flakes. But the truth is we all have much more in common than not.

What we\'re going to do:

Now I\'m going to take you into the structure and process that I\'ve been using and teaching for years.
