Hours go into creating and refining a business plan or career path; while,little attention is spent on building a life plan.  At some point, you realize that you cannot separate your personal life from work.  What affects one side of the equation affects the other side.   Eliminating stress and finding clarity, balance and synergy are among the top requests from my clients. 

Life can change in an instant; a...Last Breath ...Phone Call ...Knock at the Door ...Divorce ...Career move ...Physical Move ...Promotion ...Demotion ...any Unplanned Consequence.   How you manage the change depends on how clearly you understand YOU.
 
The human spirit seeks security, control, and affection (approval).   Your perspective of life revolves around four stages of growth:  1) Survival, 2) Stability, 3) Success, and 4) Significance. Furthermore, you may confuse significance with privilege.  Privilege speaks to conformity, while significance is the product of transformation.  

Even if your desire to grow a business or career,  your  key to balance and harmony into your life begins with your personal life plan. You must put together a plan and build the elements that set actions to your dreams and provide tools to manage and maintain your success cycle.  Remember, success is a strategy... not a destination, and that strategy is defined by you. 

Today,start your Manifest Journal.  Set aside a few minutes at the beginning and end of your day to write in your exercises and thought.  Starting from where you are right now, you will create strategies to get you where you want to go, define how you want to live, work and play, and discover what is important to you along the way.
