Year Two Planning continues. I like how things are coming together. I keep finding areas that require attention. For instance, there are some passages in Og that have made me uncomfortable. Why? My plan is to highlight those passages as I come across them this year and apply the Law of Dual Thought (I can attach any feeling to any thought. My choice.) to get the discomfort resolved.
I plan to spend more time evaluating Emerson this year. I never quite made it through the reading assigned in a way the made sense to me, so I plan to apply a different approach to study this year. I understand “Give more; get more,” but I didn’t get that from reading the essay.
Oh, and opinions. Wow. I still haven’t gotten a handle on that one. Redouble efforts this year. I’m pretty good with the mental diet, but it always requires attention to make sure I don’t drift.
Then there’s my service card. I think it’s time to step up my game on that. So far, I’ve been picking easy services that won’t strain me much to do. I think it’s time to make my services just a little more complex, because I can handle it. (Well, I’ll be traveling the first two weeks of October, so services will be a challenge then, so they may remain simple during that time.)
I’ll continue my personal makeover efforts, but the design for this year should make that effortless. Wouldn’t that be great? My future self likes this already. Identifying my advisory council will be part of my additional reading and study this year. I have some ideas, but I need to learn more about the candidates for my Inner Sanctuary.
My Mastermind Parter and I have been excited to see these plans come to fruition as we prepare this next phase in our lives. We’re nearly ready. As this year’s class kicks off, we’ll be auditing and looking for new insight as well as all the things we missed the first time around.
One of my favorite quotes from John Wooden – “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts.” Though we have learned so much this past year, as we go forward auditing and re-applying ourselves, I have no doubt that we will continue to learn so much more. You are doing awesome, my friend!
As are you. That’s a wonderful quote, and so true. I’m sure we will be amazed at what we missed or didn’t understand the first time.
