Life Plan, Set Your Accomplishments

Season 4 Episode 373

Today, we are taking the last step in creating your life strategic plan in simple terms that everyone can understand -- especially everyone who is along for the journey. This process can be used for you the individual, you the family or community, or you the business and the key to success is to cut out all the unnecessary and extra crap and really focus down on just a few things that bring you to the place you have described that you want to be -- the life you WANT TO LIVE ON YOUR TERMS.

Last go-around, you chose three areas of focus -- with those in hand, the next step is to choose an accomplishment or two in each area that you will achieve in the next 12-18 months. We will walk through this today using the Holler Neighbors as an example.

Last Show is Friday, but there will be replays and the Night Before Christmas Series during my break.

Tales from the Prepper Pantry

Christmas Reception From The Pantry: pickled things, hard boiled eggs, cheeses and meats (I bought treats and beer)
Speaking of cheese -- the giant box: thank you to Dubravko, Jenny, Dave, Karen, Shawn, Dawn, Dori, Toby, Anni, Brad, Marde and Jessica for the awesome and fantastic gift -- you will get to enjoy it too if you are at the spring Workshop because on my break, I am MAKING CHEESE!!
Time to smoke the bacon
Getting Lettuce set up for real over the break

Pig fence and barn are done -- and it is time to make bacon (as I mentioned)

Main topic of the Show: Set Your Accomplishments

It has been a bit of work, this life plan thing. In past years, I would breeze through describing the process on a podcast and leave you to it. Many of you started then stalled. Hell, I have stalled this go around a few times myself as life got chaotic.

TO be ready for FINALLY defining the short term accomplishments you will need to have in order to build the life you want to live, you should have already defined your purpose, set up where the rubber meets the road by creating a vision, and chosen three long-term areas of focus after doing a swot.

If you are like me, you have a whiteboard or chalkboard with stuff written and rewritten as you refine it into what you want.

Vision: The Holler community supports healing and mutual prosperity by connecting resources and knowledge of agorists and homesteaders who wish to build a peaceful, voluntary alternative to society's violent systems.

Purpose: The holler provides an inviting, supportive place where aspiring agorists and homesteaders can connect, rejuvenate, share best practices, and prosper together in freedom.

Areas of Focus

Community: Be a strong community based on shared principles, clear and direct communication, and facilitate each member to focus where our talents and interests are best suited.

Deploy and way to keep track of our traded goods, labor, value and knowledge that is so simple a 6 year old can use it so that Community members are able to spend our time where our talents are and not on tracking who owes whom what.
Create dedicated times and ways to improve communication about our needs, projects, wants, brainstorming, and priorities for the community.

Sustainability: Create enough ongoing, stable income and other resources so that the community can prosper.

Become the model of voluntarism, shared principles, alternative means of support
