RECOVER "VISION" IN YOUR FAMILY LIFE

RECOVER "VISION" IN YOUR FAMILY LIFE

This is a time where I am radically reworking my family vision. So much is changing globally, so its a time to make some adjustments.

Here are some pointers to help you adapt your family vision:

ONE - use a 'family' journal.

All successful project start with a written plan. Richard Branson is known to carry a small notebook in his pocket at all times. It's from here that his incredible direction is sourced. We need the same for our household.

We need a destination to head towards. Use a journal.

TWO - figure out and define what you don't like

Only when we are clear on the issues, can we then figure out how to address these problems.

THREE - write your obituary

Write down how you would like people to speak of you, how people will recognise your life work, and how your life will finish.

Measure your days this way. Consider what it will take to live your calling.

FOUR - do the airport test.

Imagine you're at the airport and you bump into one of your best friends from high school. You both talk for an hour before your flight boards. Pretend that future moment involves your friend asking what's happened in your life so far. And then imagine yourself telling them the most ideal and dreamlike picture.

It forces you to write down what you really want, and the things your heart longs for.

It doesn't mean you are going after that 'pink Lambo' but it helps reveal things deep down in your heart. It's an investigative exercise. It helps you figure out what's really important, and helps you be honest with yourself.

FIVE - do a personality / strengths test for your family

We have loved doing the enneagram. Google it.

Even more so we have loved doing Life Languages. It shows your unique communication style. And how your family can best harness your uniqueness to effectively related and communicate with each other.

We use life languages in our rebel family facebook community and we have coaches that walk you through your unique profile. It's well worth it.
