I had my 40th birthday this past October and boy was it a real wake up call. I literally woke up that morning and thought “wow, so that was 40 years! It went by so fast.” I took some time to evaluate what I had achieved in those 40 years and found that while from the outside it appeared I had achieved ’success,’ most of it wasn’t planned by me and I didn’t have a clear idea of where I wanted to go next. So I decided to make what I hope will be at least the next 40+ years based on my plan, my dreams and aspirations for me and my family. Through a series of events, discussions and activities, I created a plan that is inspiring to me and my family. It is clear and measurable and it allows me to focus on my perosnal priorities.
