PatrickUsing this document, we are going to work to discover your dream lifestyle. This is the foundational work necessary before we build anything else to support your personal brand or a business.
We do this work first because it helps you bring awareness of who you are and the life you want to live. You literally have endless possibilities and options in this world, so before we start to build a business, we want to make sure it is aligned with the goals of your desired lifestyle.
Ultimately your business is going to take up a large portion of your time and your energy. It is going to define what type of relationships you have, it’s going to determine how much money you make, where you spend your time, how you make an impact on the world, and what type of legacy you leave.
So we want to make sure we understand the lifestyle first, and build your business around that. Most people do it the other way around, they think of the business that will help them find the money so that they can build the lifestyle.
But that’s counter intuitive, why would you want to spend years building something that you hate doing? Why not just build a business and a career that you love from the start?
So that’s what this lesson is about. It’s about understanding who you are, what life you want to live, how you want to make an impact, so that we can build a business that matches this lifestyle.
To create a lifestyle that you love, there are 5 core steps to make it happen:
- Bring awareness to who you are and the life you want to live, understand the magic (your gifts, talents, and wisdom) living within you already.
- Create your vision. Dream -> Vision.
- Dreams are unorganized, they are lofty goals and they show you the internal desires of what you want to bring into your life.
- A vision is a clear and defined path forward for what you are building, what it looks like, and WHY you are building moving in that direction.
- Define how you want to feel on a daily basis.
- Create a blueprint as a plan to build your life. Plan to turn that vision into reality.
- Vision -> Reality
- Once you have your vision, it’s time to create a plan to turn that vision into reality.
- Take MASSIVE Action and set a date. And continue to take ownership of how you FEEL on a daily basis.
This document is designed mainly to help you with Step 1, bringing more awareness to how you want to live your life and the magic living inside of you already.
