4 Core Blueprints to Reclaim your Life Pt. Three

By Lynn Pierce

In part 2 of this series we talked about introspection and discovering your purpose.

And I asked you to create your own persona manifesto. If you haven't done that, you can go to http://LynnPierce.com and sign up for this ezine, and you'll get an email with a special report on how to create your personal manifesto as my gift to you. I take you step by step through how to create it and how to use it.

It's a powerful tool.

There are 4 core areas, or what I call core blueprints, that require your attention if you want to have a life that is in flow with your true passion and purpose. When you've created all 4 of your blueprints and you have all 4 of these areas functioning at a level that satisfies you, then your life will be more peaceful and effortless than you have ever imagined it could really be...

No magic bullet required!

In the final 2 weeks we will discuss each of these areas:

*Sales/Marketing/Communication Skills *Mentoring for Your Life and Your Business

Right now we'll move on to my favorite part, Blueprinting the Life of Your Dreams.

If you've done the work we've discussed in the first 2 installments of this series, you'll be standing in a place today of knowing who you are, where you're starting from and where you want to go.

Do you have a blueprint for the life of your dreams? Do you have a blueprint for the life you're living today? Have you ever thought of creating a blueprint for your life?

The majority of people would answer no to all three of those questions. In fact they may ask what a blueprint for someone's life would even involve, since it's something they've never even considered before. Most people live day to day, putting one foot in front of the other without giving any thought to who really is making the decisions in their life or how they ended up where they are.

That's why the top 3% of the people in the world have such a different life than the other 97%. They look at life differently and they make conscious choices.

Now so can you.

Creating a blueprint for the life of your dreams is not difficult to do when you know how or when you have someone to guide you through the process.

First you have to know your starting point. The next step is to evaluate how you feel about where you are.

You have a unique opportunity to choose differently every morning because you wake up every morning not knowing what the day will bring. There is an opportunity each day for an "aha" moment, in which to see yourself on a deeper level. There is also an opportunity on any given day to take your life in a whole different direction.

You are exactly where you are at this moment based on the choices that you continue to make. There is no such thing as "I have no choice, because..." That's an excuse.

You have lived life up to now creating stories from the facts of your life, creating scenarios with words like "I can't because", "____ made me" or "I had to because."

That's over now.

Every thought you have is a decision waiting to be made. Einstein's definition of insanity is to keep doing what you've always done expecting different results.

If you need help, get a friend to help sort out the facts from the story you've told yourself about your life. Let me warn you; it's not easy to be completely objective and do this on your own. Make a list of facts and a brief description of the story you've told yourself about why you are the way you are.

Afterwards look at what you learned about the stories you've told yourself. Do they still make sense or do they seem ridiculous now?

What limiting beliefs have you uncovered?

Write your own script of what you want your life story to be from now on. If you don't take on the job of being the writer and director in your life, someone else will.

So after you evaluate how you feel about where you are, take a look at what shifts you would like to make. Figure out what the end result is you are moving toward.

What do you really want your life to look like if there are no limits?

Once you've written your answer to that question, ask yourself what it's going to take to get you there. If you get stuck here, I can help you.

Blueprinting people's lives is something that comes clearly and easily for me.

Create your step-by-step plan for making it happen if you feel like you can do it on your own and take the first step today.

Remember that all you ever need to know how to do is the next step that you're going to take right now and the end result. The steps in between and the people you need to help you make it happen will show themselves as needed.

Next week we'll move on to Sales/Marketing/Communication Skills. Now that you know what you want and how you're going to get there, you probably need some cash to make it happen, right?

So get to work right now on blueprinting the life of your dreams so we can work on your business and get the cash flowing to fund that lifestyle next week!

Until then, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Just comment on this post on my blog.
