Personal Strategic Plan

Success doesn't come out of thin air; it starts with a meticulously crafted plan. 

Achieving more in the coming year than in the past requires a disciplined Personal Strategic Plan.

Personal strategic planning involves a methodical thinking process that leads to crucial decisions shaping your identity, direction, actions, and the rationale behind them. It's a forward-focused approach aiming to:

- Provide direction, meaning, and purpose to your life.

- Make decisions that positively influence your future.

- Concentrate your efforts on what truly matters.

- Attain optimal results in a shorter span.

- Elevate your performance significantly.

- Attain more time, financial stability, balance, and freedom.

- Eliminate uncertainty, anxiety, doubt, and fear.

- Utilize your skills more efficiently.

- Improve your overall quality of life and peace of mind.

- Ultimately, be more, do more, and have more from life.

This strategic planning rests on the belief that life doesn't adhere to a plan unless you have one. A successful plan encompasses the following components:

- Personal Philosophy: Often stemming from various sources, a personal philosophy contains unexamined rules that might hold inconsistencies and contradictions.

  

- Legacy Statement: Serving as your life's defining statement, it sets the framework for mission statements and goals while addressing the question, "What do I want to be remembered for?"

  

- Mission Statement: It's a declaration of your identity, purpose, and intended accomplishments, akin to a business's organizational mission but personalized to your life.

  

- Core Values: Guiding principles that steer your life's course, these values need concrete guidelines and measurements for value-centered living.

  

- Code of Ethics: Words and conduct reflect an attempt to organize behavior and understand oneself better.

  

- Lifetime Objectives: These should align with your Legacy & Mission Statements, visualizing desired outcomes beforehand.

  

- Goals: Must be measurable, specific, and time-bound across ten critical life areas: Personal, Health, Recreation, Family, Friends, Community, Career, Financial, Household, and Spiritual.

  

- Personal Board of Directors: A group offering wisdom and support towards a specific purpose.

  

- Maintenance & Performance Check-Ups: Monthly assessments to gauge progress and identify challenges and necessary adjustments.

  

- Personal Reason Why: Understanding, supporting, and empowering your reasons behind actions; a driving force toward achievement.

  

In Conclusion:

By knowing who you are, what you want, where you're headed, how you'll get there, and what to do upon arrival, your chances of success significantly increase. Creating your future is the best way to predict it. Thus, a well-defined, diligently executed Personal Strategic Plan serves as your ticket to success.
