I cannot unsee my future self that I have created in words

I came to the Lifebook training because I was at a point in my life where I was doing well and had invested time and energy into being my best self based on reading books and listening to Podcasts and slowly planning out my life and I read Vishen's book which had the 12 areas and I had done an off the top assessment of where I thought I stood in each category but I knew that it was an arbitrary approach and Lifebook would help me be very specific about what I am doing for every area of my life. This program is a natural extension for me based on the work I have done so far and it really does bring everything I do into alignment. I had some big goals I planned to achieve this year and since the year ended last year I have been working on a few things and there were bumps along the way but because I was daily defining who I am and wanted to be those bumps seemed fairly minor in the grand scheme of the vision I had for my life. In many ways the bumps were a real test of whether I did want the things I said I did and if I was willing to push forward even when things didn't go right. There were also several tests of character in some of the issues I encountered and in those times I could go back to my character vision and remind myself the person I wanted to be and not let minor mishaps along the way deter me from the person that I can truly be. I engage with my partner differently now and my children and I continue to deepen our relationship. I even asked my son who is 9 to proof my parenting chapter and let me know if I had included everything in there and his only two questions were, who do I love more, him or his sister :) and what are the 12 categories? My visions for all categories of my life are achievable and I know that I will continue to refine and re-imagine what I am capable of because I have had dis-empowering premises in several areas of my life for most of my life and it feels nice to challenge those and really replace them with exciting new powerful ones. One thing that has resonated with me during this process is the quote "A mind once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions" by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I cannot unsee my future self that I have created in words and so I press on. This process has been incredible for me, I know now that everything I do is connected to everyone around me and I owe it to myself and everyone else I connect to or server to be my best self and now I have a blueprint that is whole. Thank you Jon & Missy and MindValley for bring you to me.
