?? Building Your Life Plan ??
Christian CEO Peer Teams
#Christian CEO Peer Teams connects Christian Business Leaders for Godly success!
If you haven’t already mapped out your life plan, take the first step now. Start with the foundation: your core values, purpose and life’s focus. List all of the realistic ways to achieve your ideal life. Break down these steps into short-term goals and make an action plan.
Write down your goals and action steps and convert them into graph form so you can track your progress. Share your Life Plan with the important people in your life.
One of the most effective ways to achieve your goals is to work with a coach (www.moleadershipcoaching.com)
If you can’t do that, at least consider working with an accountability partner. Choose someone you trust and with whom you have a relationship based on honesty.
With your partner, you can brainstorm ideas, make plans and hold each other accountable. You can anticipate obstacles and make any adjustments. Make sure your partner challenges you to stretch enough so you grow and learn beyond what you would accomplish alone.
Most importantly, you should never give up, even if you run into formidable obstacles. You may have to adjust your plans but persevere. Remember perseverance is one of the character traits God points us towards regularly. Look at Romans 5:4, 2 Peter 1:6 and James 1:3. The last encouragement from James is that when our faith is tested perseverance is a product of our faith.
Keep up the faith. If you keep working towards your ultimate Life Plan objectives, over time you’ll get there.
Develop your grit – that ability to find what works no matter what. Grit is based on the profound belief that things may be difficult but not impossible. You only have to persist a little longer than most people to become a success. This doesn’t mean you can’t adjust your plans according to reality.

Of course, changing circumstances and desires mean any life plan will need to be amended over time. The goals you have in your 20s are considerably different from those in your 40s — and vastly different from those later in life.
Don’t let life just happen to you. Shape it into your ideal version — and have a nice life!
I’d love to hear if you’ve done a life plan and learn about how it helped you. Please leave a comment.
What’s been your experience as you face the challenge of creating a life plan? Most people say that it helps them to have someone walk with them and hold them accountable.
