     Your Personal Strategic Plan

Corporations do it. Entrepreneurs do it (well, some of them). Many successful businesses develop a strategic plan to help them get clarity and focus.

For years, I've been helping businesses develop their strategic plan. A few years ago, it occurred to me that you could have a personal strategic plan that would help you individually get clarity and focus on your own preferred future.

Set aside a couple of hours this month to contemplate your Preferred Future for the next 3 years. Don't get hung up on the small stuff. Look beyond today and this week and this month.

For this breakthrough strategy, identify the six or seven aspects of your personal life that are seriously important to you. Generally, we see categories such as:

      family
      spiritual journey
      health
      social involvement
      intellectual growth
      financial health

In each of these areas, develop a crystal clear vision of where you are going with this. What's possible. What does it look like when you're living up to your best expectations in each of these areas? Describe as best you can what it looks like and what it feels like when you have reached the point in each of your key result areas where you are happy with each. Write in the present tense, as if it is already in place. This represents a picture of your future as you prefer it to be.

If you can articulate a clear vision of your preferred future, focusing on those areas that are important to you, that vision becomes the picture on the lid of your life's jigsaw puzzle. That clear vision allows you to set goals in the direction of your preferred future. That vision provides motivation, energy, purpose and direction. It certainly helps you to communicate with the people around you.

Many people continuously work on personal tasks that are leading nowhere. I believe Thoreau could have been referring to those people when he wrote:

       "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation".

Many others have made financial objectives their sole concern and have paid a heavy price for their success - poor health, failed marriages, neglected friendships, no personal development in any area except business.

By developing and pursuing your own personal strategic plan, you will increase your energy, motivation, and your sense of satisfaction. In other words, your happiness. It's your choice to make. Most people are as happy as they choose to be.

Get busy developing that for yourself...   Get a Life!!

Stop by our website every day to see the Business Cartoon
of the Day by Ted Goff.   http://www.bizsuccess.com/cartoon.htm

 Just Wondering...

    Do fish get cramps after eating?

    Does the reverse side also have a reverse side?

    Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

    How come abbreviated is such a long word?

    How come you press harder on a remote-control
     when you know the battery is dead?
-------------

"Real women don't have hot flashes, they have power surges."
-------------

    What would a chair look like if your knees bent the other way?

    Why are there 5 syllables in the word "monosyllabic"?

    Why are they called apartments, when they're all stuck together?

    Why do ballet dancers always dance on their toes?
     Wouldn't it be easier to just hire taller dancers?

    Why do banks charge you a "non-sufficient funds fee" on money
     they already know you don't have?

    Why do people without a watch look at their wrist when you ask
     them what time it is?

    Why do scientists call it "re"search when looking for something new?
