I am passionate about personal development. It was the search for improving my own personal health and fitness that led me to field of Lifestyle Medicine. So many of us have health and fitness goals and career goals but what about the other areas of our lives? Creating a clear Life Vision allows you to optimise every area of your life in order to be the best version of yourself and live your life to the fullest.
Life Vision Creation
My wife Lindsay and I first began the process consciously creating a Life Vision together in 2008. We looked at the most important categories of our lives and visualised what we wanted to do and who we wanted to be.
Then after a close family bereavement we realised how precious and fragile life is. Through that pain we looked again at our Life Vision and redefined what we wanted so that we didn’t waste a single moment of the lives that we had been given. In the following years, we moved our young family up to the Highlands of Scotland, built an eco-home by the sea and started living our life vision. However, as our lives became more complicated, balancing parenting and family time with everything else, we realised we ran the risk of falling back on the treadmill of life. We had started to make sacrifices in ourselves and were spending too much of our time doing the things we didn’t enjoy.
Then we discovered Lifebook
We had already witnessed the power of having a life vision first-hand, but the Lifebook Process offered a more structured approach and methodology. As a couple we really enjoyed going through the Lifebook Process together. It guided us to look at areas of our lives that we hadn’t considered looking at in such detail before. As a result, we both have our very own unique individual Lifebooks but we also have a shared Life Vision, that enables us to balance each of the important areas of our lives whilst still staying true to our authentic selves. The clarity that we gained by defining our Life Vision has allowed us to make important decisions more easily and opened our eyes to possibilities that we wouldn’t have seen before. We now have a much stronger sense of purpose and a desire to make this world a better place. Every aspect of our lives has started to align. As a result we have become happier, healthier individuals and better parents, better friends and better human beings.
The Lifebook process has made such an immense difference to our lives that we wanted to share it with others. As Lifebook Leaders we work with couples to guide you through the process of completing your own unique Lifebooks and to go on to create a shared Life Vision together. We also work with individuals on a one-to-one basis.
Lifebook is a transformational lifestyle design system that empowers you to envision, plan, and achieve your ideal life.
It looks at 12 categories of your life – health + fitness, intellectual, emotional, character, spiritual, love relationship, parenting, social, career, financial, quality of life and life vision. Through an intuitive step-by-step process, you discover who you really are and what you want in all 12 dimensions of your life and design a personal action plan to make it happen.
If you would like to optimise every area of your life, it would be an honour and a privilege to guide you through this transformational process and to witness the inspirational changes in your life too.
