Before this program, I had gone through many different ways of doing a plan, journaling, and writing things down. However, each year, after doing that year's plan, it would always get forgotten, and I would briefly think about it now and then, but it has never stuck - not once in my whole life! I also kinda resisted doing LifeBook - I told myself I didn't need it and stuff like that.
Because of this program, I have seemed to blossom - it is really the first time that I have really enveloped the whole structure, and seen the whole picture and all of these categories of my life. It has been wonderful to really dive deep into each category and really think about it. I am very happy in my life with the exception of my marital relationship.....I am writing down what I want in that category, but more than anything, I am articulating the type of person I will be, how I want to conduct myself, and I am leaving it up to God to work it out.
And now my life is developing into a whole new chapter - I am "retiring", or as I like to put it, "refiring" as I contemplate new things I am going to do and how I am going to move forward. I am excited about new travel opportunities in my life as well. I can see the Lifebook community as a new support system, and wonderful examples of people that I want to surround myself with. I am so grateful for having taken the step to do this as it has crystallized my thinking in all of these categories. Life is Good!
