"It's a great way to think deeply about all categories of your life and challenge your current beliefs"
My life was just me wanting more material things and being scared to reach for them, like a house with a beautiful yard I want to be able to enjoy and want to be in. Today I just purchased that house even though I am fearful of being one income with such an expensive investment. I know that fear holds me back and once I have what I want I will do what I have to, in order to keep it. I will also be working on my homes surroundings. I always surround myself with things I love visually but never thought about the scents and sounds I wanted to implement into my life to make it feel like a tranquil retreat. I currently don't travel much and so this has been my main focus in life the last few years. I am also focusing on becoming a successful and consistent trader, changing my career from GIS to trading, which will allow me more freeddom and control over my time, energy and paycheck.
I [now] have a clear vision for every aspect of my life instead of just one or two areas.
I was getting seriously stuck in my trading education due to things people around me were saying. I needed a way to visual what I wanted and come up with a plan to get it. Lifebook seemed like a great option while also looking at every area of my life.
I pushed through and bought a house, even though my family and others have said negative things and think I should hold myself back because i am self employed or single. They tall me I want too big of a house, or too large of a yard. That I need to change my job in order to have job security, even though my current job pays double what I'd get and has been consistant for 5 yrs, and i am an able bodied person who can find another job if my current contract ended anyways.
I know what type of people I want in my life and I won't settle for someone who doesn't want the best for me and holds me back from my potential.
I know what type of love relationship I want and deserve. I will no longer tolerate people who expect me to do all the heavy lifting in the relationship and only want the fun side on their shoulders. I will only accept someone who wants to see me succeed and go for my goals as well as someone who also takes personal development seriously so we can grow together, make each other better and pursue harmony together.
