Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 356 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Your Life Plan Blueprint – WESPER Step-3: Strategy – Principles 1-6

Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 356 of our trek, and earlier this month we began a detailed series, which we originally introduced in January, called Your Life Plan Blueprint. We have synthesized the information into a 100 page PDF manual/workbook which contains all forms needed to create and maintain your personal life plan.

This is our initial release of the manual/workbook, and it is available for download at Wisdom-Trek.com on the left-hand sidebar of any page. Or, if you are listening on your smartphone, you can text the word LifePlan (with no spaces) to 44222, and Your Life Plan Blueprint will be delivered to you in an email. The manual/workbook is free during the month of May, so I would encourage you to become one of our early adopters so that all updates will be available to you for free also. By the end of 2016, we will have a complete web/mobile version available of Your Life Plan Blueprint.

Thank you so much for coming along with me as we trek through each page of Your Life Plan Blueprint. If you would like to listen to any of the past episodes, please go to Wisdom-Trek.com to listen to them and read the daily journal. You can also subscribe to Wisdom-Trek on iTunes, Spreaker, Stitcher, Soundcloud, iHeart Radio, and Google Play, so each day’s trek will be downloaded to you automatically.

We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. It has been a cool and rainy week for May, but warmer weather is in store for next week. Granny’s peonies are starting to bloom, so with a little sun and warmth, they should be in full bloom soon.

As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1^st. Please email me at guthrie@venturecg.com or leave a comment at the bottom of today’s journal and let me know if you would like me to continue Wisdom-Trek on a 7 day, 5 day, or 3 day per week schedule. Also, let me know if you would like any changes to the format of the daily trek. Thank you in advance for your feedback!

It is now time to get started on the 18^th day of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook. If you missed any of the previous days in this series, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com. On our trek today, we will continue our deep exploration of each of the phases of the WESPER Framework. We continue today with the 3^rd step which is the strategy phase.

Yesterday we explored the 3 core concepts, and today we will focus on the first 6 of 10 strategy guidelines. We are taking several days to hike you through each step of creating your life plan. I would encourage you to trek with me through this process and complete the associated forms that are included Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

WESPER Step 3: Strategy – Guideline 1-6

If you are following along in the manual/workbook, today let’s explore the first 6 guidelines for strategy, which is found on pages 38-43 of Your Life Plan Blueprint. These pages include 4 worksheets, which are to be completed for the first 4 guidelines. You can also view this information in the journal for Day 356 on Wisdom-Trek.com.

On our trek today, we reviewed the first 6 guidelines of the strategy phase of the WESPER Framework. It is an important part of the process that you take the time to complete the worksheets that we reviewed today as part of Your Life Plan Blueprint.

Tomorrow we will explore the remaining 4 strategy guidelines located on pages 44-45 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook. If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and

encourage your friends and family to join us. Then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.

That will finish our trek for today. As you enjoy your daily dose of wisdom, we ask you to help us grow Wisdom-Trek by sharing with your family and friends through email, Facebook, Twitter, or in person so they can come along with us each day.

Thank you for allowing me to be your guide, mentor, and most of all your friend as I serve you through the Wisdom-Trek podcast and journal each day.

As we take this trek together, let us always:

Live Abundantly (Fully)
Love Unconditionally
Listen Intentionally
Learn Continuously
Lend to others Generously
Lead with Integrity
Leave a Living Legacy Each Day

This is Guthrie Chamberlain reminding you to Keep Moving Forward, Enjoy Your Journey, and Create a Great Day Every Day! See you tomorrow!

We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. Our order of Impatiens flowers was delivered this week by a local farmer friend, so hopefully we will be able to get them planted this weekend. We also have to till the circle garden area in the front of the house and plant the dozen rose bushes that we purchased previously. We did see a young mother deer in the front lawn this week, and they love rose bushes. So, we will have to determine a solution to protect the roses.

As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1^st.

We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. We are making slow but steady progress on the woodwork in the parlor, so hopefully we will be able to finish up applying polyurethane by this weekend. I was also able to get the lawn mowed, and it was well past due on that. I will probably have to mow it again soon, as the grass was so tall it did not cut very well.

We continue to enjoy watching our hawks fly back and forth every few minutes with worms and rodents for the chicks. It is amazing the number of black birds that pester the hawks. From what I have read, it is either a territorial issue or the smaller birds are after some quick prey from the hawks. They are persistent, but the hawks are steadfast in feeding their chicks.

It is now time to get started on the 16^th day of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook. If you missed any of the previous days in this series, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com.

WESPER Step 2: Establish – Principles 8-10

If you are following along in the manual/workbook, today let’s start exploring on page 34, which covers principles 8-10 of the establish phase of Your Life Plan Blueprint. We will explore the final three principles in order starting with principle 8.

As we wrap up the establish phase of our WESPER Framework, let’s review 4 checkpoints that will help you to succeed in creating your life plan. This information is located on page 35 of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

On our trek today, we have examined Principles 8-10 of the 2^nd Step of the WESPER Framework, which is establish. We also reviewed the 4 checkpoints that will help you stay the course when creating your life plan.

Tomorrow we will start on Step 3 of the WESPER Framework, which is strategy. We will explore the three core elements of strategy before embarking on the 10 guidelines for an effective strategy.

Day 353 – Your Life Plan Blueprint™ – WESPER Step 2 : Establish – Principles 5 – 7

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 353 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Your Life Plan Blueprint – WESPER Step-2: Establish – Principles 5 – 7

Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 353 of our trek, and last week we began a detailed series, which we originally introduced in January, called Your Life Plan Blueprint. We have synthesized the information into a 100 page PDF manual/workbook which contains all forms needed to create and maintain your personal life plan.

This is our initial release of the manual/workbook, and it is available for download at Wisdom-Trek.com on the left-hand sidebar of any page. Or, if you are listening on your smartphone, you can text the word LifePlan (with no spaces) to 44222 and Your Life Plan Blueprint will be delivered to you in an email.

By the end of 2016, we will have a complete web/mobile version available of Your Life Plan Blueprint.

We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. Our pair of hawks has been extremely active since we returned to Marietta. The two keep flying in and out of the nest with a constant stream of food and additional padding for the nest.

The nest is a bit more obstructed now with the abundant foliage, but we have started to spot the fluffy heads of the baby hawks as they are brought food. The blackbirds and blue jays certainly like to fly after and pester the hawks as they are delivering the food, but it does not deter them from their mission. It is quite interesting to watch. This is a good analogy for our own lives. Let us ignore the pesky distractions and focus on our purpose in life.

As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1^st. Please email me at guthrie@venturecg.com, or leave a comment at the bottom of today’s journal to let me know if you would like me to continue Wisdom-Trek on a 7 day, 5 day, or 3 day per week schedule. Also, let me know if you would like any changes to the format of the daily trek. Thank you in advance for your feedback! It is now time to get started on the 15^th day of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

If you missed any of the previous days in this series, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com. On our trek today, we will continue our deep exploration of each of the phases of the WESPER Framework. We will continue with the 2^nd step today as we examine principles 5-7 that make up the establish phase. We are taking several days to walk you through each step of creating your life plan. I would encourage you to trek with me through this process and complete the associated forms that are included included Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

WESPER Step 2: Establish – Principles 5-7

If you are following along in the manual/workbook, today let’s start exploring on page 32, which covers the 5^th principle of the establish phase of Your Life Plan Blueprint. You can also view this information in the journal for Day 353. The 5^th principle is to Plan for B³ Goals. When planning for B³ goals, you must say to yourself, “Today I will do what others won’t so tomorrow I can do what others can’t.”

Now, let’s explore two closely related principles #6 & 7, which are to Be Specific with Your Goals and Make Goals Measurable. This information is located on page 33 of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

On our trek today, we examined Principles 5-7 of the 2^nd Step of the WESPER Framework, which is establish. Establish your B³ goals, and make sure they are both specific and measurable. Once your B³ goals are in place, look at some lesser goals that might supplement them. This process may be a bit intimidating, but that is how you grow and expand yourself.

Tomorrow we will explore the final three principles 8 – 10 of the establish phase within the WESPER Framework. We will also stop by 4 checkpoints to wrap up the establish phase. This information will cover pages 34-35 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook. If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and

encourage your friends and family to join us. Then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.

Day 352 – Your Life Plan Blueprint™ – WESPER Step 2 : Establish – Principles 3 & 4

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 352 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Your Life Plan Blueprint – WESPER Step-2: Establish – Principles 3 & 4

Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 352 of our trek and last week we began a detailed series, which we originally introduced in January, called Your Life Plan Blueprint. We have synthesized the information into a 100 page PDF manual/workbook which contains all forms needed to create and maintain your personal life plan.

Thank you so much for coming along with me as we trek through each page of Your Life Plan Blueprint. If you would like to listen to any of the past episodes, please go to Wisdom-Trek.com to listen to them and read the daily journal. You can also subscribe to Wisdom-Trek on iTunes, Spreaker, Stitcher, Soundcloud, iHeart Radio, and Google Play so each day’s trek will be downloaded to you automatically.

We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. This week’s business work, yard work, and renovation activities are keeping us very busy and focused. We are making progress in all areas, and I have to remind myself that just as our overall life is a trek, so each day we must take one step at a time. Even with that, life is never constant and is always changing for us. It is amazing that in less than two weeks, most of the big maple and oak trees on our property went from barely budding to almost full foliage. Time does trek on quickly. Choose to enjoy every day of it.

As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1^st. Please email me at guthrie@venturecg.com or leave a comment at the bottom of today’s journal and let me know if you would like me to continue Wisdom-Trek on a 7 day, 5 day, or 3 day per week schedule. Also, let me know if you would like any changes to the format of the daily trek. Thank you in advance for your feedback!

It is now time to get started on the 14^th day of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook. If you missed any of the previous days in this series, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com. On our trek today, we will continue our deep exploration of each of the phases of the WESPER Framework. We will continue with the 2^nd step today as we examine principles 3 & 4 that make up the establish phase. This process will take several days as I walk you through each step of creating your life plan. I would encourage you to trek with me through this process and complete the associated forms that are included in Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

WESPER Step 2: Establish – Principles 3 & 4

If you are following along in the manual/workbook today, let’s start exploring on page 28 which covers the 3^rd principle of the establish phase of Your Life Plan Blueprint. You can also view this information in the journal for Day 352 on Wisdom-Trek.com. The 3^rd principle is to Understand Your Motivations with Your Life Purpose. The why/because sections below are still a work in progress for me also. The entries listed are for example only to spur your thoughts. I have partially completed one section for each of the 7 areas of the Wheel of Life located on Page 27.

Now let’s explore principle #4, which is to Identify Your Objective Goals First and Then Define Your Activity Goals. This information is located on page 31 of Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

If you find yourself struggling with finding your life purpose and your overall objectives, take your time but stay focused with consistent persistence. Life is a trek, not a 100-yard dash. Review this information as much as you need, and if you have any questions, please email me at guthrie@venturecg.com. I will address any questions that you have.

On our trek for today, we have examined the Principles 3 & 4 of the 2^nd Step of the WESPER Framework, which is establish. Take some time today to complete this information for your own life plan. This is a process that does take some time in the beginning, but once it is set up, it will give your life purpose and direction.

Tomorrow we will continue with principles 5 – 7 of the establish phase within the WESPER Framework. This information will cover pages 32-33 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook. If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and encourage your friends and family to join us. Then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.

Thank you for allowing me to be your guide, mentor, and most of all your friend as I serve you through the Wisdom-Trek podcast and journal each day.

Listen Intentionally
