                                                Architect & Builder
                                                If you are not designing your own life you are living based on someone else’s plans
                                                and probably being blown about by events and other’s agendas. As the Owner of
                                                your life and career you have the opportunity to create a compelling vision for your
                                                future. You are the Architect of that vision so give yourself permission to dream BIG!
                                                You can take the time to create the blueprint for the life you design, to help you
                                                develop the plans to bring it alive over time. Clarity on the destination and the focus
                                                plans provide, integrated into your journaling, gives you a power boost to get

         YOUR LIFE &                            Compass

                                                However If you are starting afresh do not worry if you do not have detailed future
           YEAR PLAN                            plans. The most important thing to do is to start and create an ideal Vision (could be
                                                a Vision Board) for your future within a set a timeframe. You the need to ask yourself
                                                why you want this vision and how motivated are you to get there? If you have the
                                                hunger for it and the direction is clear (the compass) – that is all you need to begin.
                                                You do not need lots of detail to start. Beware, many people get stuck in the
                                                planning without progressing to doing. Life is a learning journey, plans can evolve as
                                                you move forward. Plans need testing with action to bring them alive.
