"It was as if Lifebook found me! It couldn't have come at a better time!"

I had come across Lifebook previously as well, but I never felt called to do it. This time was different. I signed up within a few days of receiving the promotional email! 

It was as if Lifebook found me! It couldn't have come at a better time! Coincidence? I don't think so. I truly believe when we are ready to transform, the means appear, almost magically! :)

The initial assessment I took as part of the course was the most detailed report I have seen when it comes to personal growth. Every week, the categories made me think of life like never before. I'm someone who is very ambitious, and I've always been drawn towards excelling in all areas of life. However, I didn't know how to look at life from so many different angles! I mean we are always taught to prioritize one aspect of our lives over the other. For me, ever since I was a kid, I felt I needed to focus on my career and nothing else. The biggest goal in anyone's life is to prove your self worth in this competitive world. You have to sacrifice things to be successful, right?

Luckily, being the rebel that I am, I started to fight against everything that was up against me. I began to see struggles everywhere. My world view became one of extreme revolt against everything that stood in my way. Growing up in an environment that didn't allow for the kind of intellectual independence I was looking for only made things worse. 

I accepted the state of struggle as what I was to live with if I wanted to create the life I wanted. There was no separation between the two. The result was a complete nervous breakdown that crippled me for years. I would feel a little better and burn out soon after. At one point, I just gave up! I lost my health and the will to continue living. I had one vision for my life - that I was going to live on my own terms. It seemed like I was crushing concrete, trying to make the impossible possible.

The thought that I could create the life of my dreams effortlessly while having fun never crossed my mind. But, I feel there was a tiny part of me that was preparing (subconsciously) to welcome a path, a system in my life that would change everything. 

Enter Lifebook - each of the categories are so detailed, so nuanced, and thought provoking that there's no way for you to go through it with taking a deep dive into your psyche. It will make you think in a way you never thought possible. Don't get me wrong - its not magic! During the very first category, Jon makes it clear that the answers will have to come from within you. Only you can determine what you will take away from the program. I felt overwhelmed in the beginning, so much so that I considered if it was indeed a right fit for me. I'm so proud of myself for not giving up! It was so incredibly worth it!

The Lifebook journey has made me examine my life with a fine toothed comb, in every aspect of my life. Although the first draft of my Lifebook is almost over, my journey has just begun. What comes next is the repeated fine tuning the pages to create the life I'm proud of. Lifebook is not a standalone program, it's a lifestyle. That's the level of commitment that is required!

Like I said, Lifebook found me. I didn't go looking for it actively. And in doing so, it only reinforced my belief in the Universe, and the magical qualities within me that attracts exactly what I need, with the least resistance! It made me think deeply - about how I was looking for a program exactly like Lifebook for years now. I couldn't put a finger on it then, but now it makes sense. I manifested this!
