Legacy: What does it all mean?

We all have them. The jaw-dropping, heart-stopping what-if moments. A phone rings, a near-miss or a loved one's recovery brings life into focus. Small or big, it reminds us of the brevity of life and how quickly everything can change.

In the humdrum of work and school, of parties and connection, we sometimes miss this. We forget the bigger picture, the ultimate why the bigger legacy we want to leave.

Recently, I talked to a few business owners about this. Successful people, with growing turnover and even bigger dreams, they said sometimes, they questioned what it was about.

We did an exercise that I find powerful. Planning with the end in mind, imagine you are selling your business. Or, it has come to an end.

1. Community: how do you want your business to be remembered? Whom do you want it to make a difference for?
2. Vehicle: How do you want to make that difference? What resources does it take to make it happen?
3. Plan: How do you legacy plan in your business? How do you plan for the change you want to make?

Purpose-driven businesses, to leave a legacy, are powerful. Motivating. World-changing.
