To help you on your way, here are some powerful insights from my good friend and life coach
Martyn Hume Cobbe.

Would you build a house without plans?

If you wouldn’t build a house without plans then why would you build your life without a clear
plan for how you want it to be and how to achieve it? Maybe to avoid disappointment if it’s
not achieved?

But if you fail to make a plan, you’re guaranteed to be disappointed. The first step in a creative process is getting clear about what it is you want to create. The
design might evolve throughout the process of creation but how can you commit fully to action,
focus your energies and make all the necessary decisions required without a clear outcome in
mind?

In the life planning process, step 1 is establishing the goal – what you’d like your life to be in 3-5 years time. This picture includes your relationships, physical environment,
your work life, your health and your experience of living, just to name a few.

Step 2 is getting really clear about your personal resources, your drives, your strengths, your
natural abilities and your values, for these are what will empower you and keep you on the
pathway to fulfillment.

Step 3 is to eliminate any limiting beliefs that arise as you start moving toward your desired outcome. These are bound to arise because they are the primary barriers that have prevented you from already
achieving your life goals.

This three-step process is about creating a map of your life and then creating and installing an internal
compass. This compass will keep you on track and in the right direction as you come to the many forks in the road.

The amazing thing is that, when you know you’re on the right path, you’ll find a wonderful sense of gratitude
in the now and an innate ability to enjoy the journey as it unfolds…
