  • Day 357 – Your Life Plan Blueprint™ – WESPER Step 3: Strategy – Principles 7-10

    Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy
    Welcome to Day 357 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 7-10

    Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 357 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. We are staying quite busy in and around the house this week. We are getting the Impatiens and Roses planted, and they really look great. Since the deer also enjoy the flowers, we did purchase some deer deterrent stakes, so hopefully that will protect the flowers. Inside, I finished applying polyurethane to the woodwork and floors in the parlor. Once it dries sufficiently, we will be able to set the furniture back up in that room. Little by little, we are making progress.

    As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1st. Please email me at [email protected] 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 19th 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 3rd step which is the strategy phase.

    Yesterday we explored the first 6 of 10 strategy guidelines. Today we will finish up strategy guidelines 7-10. 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 7-10

    If you are following along in the manual/workbook, today let’s explore guidelines 7-10 for strategy, which is found on pages 44-45 of Your Life Plan Blueprint.

     

    On our trek for today, we reviewed the remaining 4 guidelines of the strategy phase of the WESPER Framework. All 10 of these guidelines are an important part of creating an effective strategy for Your Life Plan Blueprint. 

    Tomorrow we will take the 4th step within the WESPER Framework as we move on to the planning phase. We will explore pages 46-48 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook.  If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and

    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:

    1. Live Abundantly (Fully)
    2. Love Unconditionally
    3. Listen Intentionally
    4. Learn Continuously
    5. Lend to others Generously
    6. Lead with Integrity
    7. Leave a Living Legacy Each Day

        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 1st. Please email me at [email protected] 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!

        On our trek for today, we started on the 3rd step of the WESPER Framework, which is strategy. The three core concepts of strategy that we covered today lay the groundwork for the strategy guidelines that we will explore during the next couple daily treks.

        The information on the strategy guidelines for tomorrow is located on pages 38-42 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook. If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and

          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.

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 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 2nd 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. The information on the Core Elements is located on pages 36-37 of Your Life Plan Blueprint manual/workbook.  If you have not done so already, make sure you download Your Life Plan Blueprint, and

            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.

            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 1st. Please email me at [email protected], 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 15th day of 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 5th principle of the establish phase of Your Life Plan Blueprint. You can also view this information in the journal for Day 353. The 5th 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 2nd 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.

            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.

              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 1st.  Please email me at [email protected] 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 14th 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 2nd 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 3rd 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 3rd 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 [email protected]. I will address any questions that you have.

              On our trek for today, we have examined the Principles 3 & 4 of the 2nd 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.

              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:

              1. Live Abundantly (Fully)
              2. Love Unconditionally
              3. Listen Intentionally
              4. Learn Continuously
              5. Lend to others Generously
              6. Lead with Integrity
              7. Leave a Living Legacy Each Day

                Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy
                Welcome to Day 351 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 1 & 2

                Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 351 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. 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. After sleeping in a bit on Saturday to catch up from our late arrival the night before, I worked on the woodwork and floor in the parlor. I wiped everything down with mineral spirits and was able to apply the first coat of polyurethane to part of the woodwork. Early Sunday morning we drove to New Castle, PA to go to church with our son Barnabas and his wife Leesha. Our youngest grandchild Evelyn Grace was dedicated during the church service. Afterward we went to their house for Sunday brunch and a time of fellowship. It is a blessing to invest ourselves in these special times with our kids and grandkids.

                As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1st.  Please email me at [email protected] 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 13th 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. Yesterday we began a deep exploration of each of the phases of the WESPER Framework, starting with wisdom. We continue with the 2nd step today starting on the 10 principles 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 Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

                WESPER Step 2: Establish – Principles 1 & 2

                If you are following along in the manual/workbook, today let’s explore page 26, which covers the 1st principle of the establish phase of Your Life Plan Blueprint. You can also view this information in the journal for Day 351 on Wisdom-Trek.com.  The 1st principle is to Ensure Congruency with Your Life Purpose.

                You may need to take some time on this principle to determine what your overall life purpose and goal are.  That is okay. Follow the three steps outlined, and then write it down. Once you have established them, move on to the 2nd principle, which is to ensure your life purpose and overall goal are properly represented on Your Wheel of Life found on page 27 of Your Life Plan Blueprint and on the journal page for Day 351. The journal page shows the completed Wheel of Life for me that can be used as an example.

                On our trek for today, we examined Principles 1 & 2 of the 2nd 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 4 & 5 of the establish phase within the WESPER Framework. This information will cover pages 28-31 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.

                  We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. After a busy day of work related activities and a late afternoon eye exam on Friday, we headed north to The Big House. Since we did not get away until later and there was a significant traffic delay, it was around [1:00] AM before we arrived. But, the weather was nice, and it was a pleasant drive. Since we will be here for over two months, packing did involve a bit more planning than the usual two weeks going back and forth. We have much to work on in and around the house, so there will be very little idle time during our stay.

                  As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1st. Please email me at [email protected] 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.

Yesterday we focused on the philosophy of life planning and important concepts of the WESPER Framework.

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 come with Your Life Plan Blueprint Workbook.

                  WESPER Step 1: Wisdom

                  On our trek for today, we have examined the 1st step of the WESPER Framework, which is wisdom. Wisdom is as essential to living a life of purpose as water is to sustaining our physical bodies. I challenge you today to seek wisdom in the three ways mentioned above as you consider your life purpose and as you prepare to establish your 7-year objectives for the 7 areas of your Wheel of Life.

                  Tomorrow we will continue to explore the 10 principles within the WESPER Framework with step 2, which is to Establish your objectives. I will share some of my personal examples as we go through these exercises to help you grasp the concepts. This information begins on pages 26 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.

                    We are broadcasting from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Our grandson Kip had a sleepover at Granny and Gramps’s on Thursday night and stayed with us on Friday. We love to have our grandchildren over when it is possible so we can have the opportunity to impact their lives and build on the foundation that their parents are infusing into their young lives. We headed north to Marietta on Friday evening and will be there for over two months with a couple of other side trips for business and family activities.

                      Your Life Plan Blueprint – The WESPER Framework – Overview

                      Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 348 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.

                      We are broadcasting from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina. On Wednesday evening my sister Rebecca joined us for dinner for our monthly get-together, and we continued our trek down memory lane looking at old family pictures. With this past weekend being Mother’s Day, it was a time of reflection and thankfulness for our mom. Although she is no longer alive, her legacy and impact continues in our lives each day.

                      As a reminder, we are looking at changing the format of Wisdom-Trek on June 1st.  Please email me at [email protected] 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 10th 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. We have finished up changing your thought patterns and the purpose of goals within Your Life Plan Blueprint. It is now time to explore the framework which the blueprint is built on. Any solid structure needs a solid framework at its core.  The core of Your Life Plan Blueprint is:

                      The WESPER Framework – Overview

                      If you are following along in the manual/workbook, we will first cover page 19 and 20 and introduce the WESPER framework and workflow for creating your life plan. I will go into detailed analysis of each step on subsequent days, so for today’s trek, just focus on grasping the overall concept.

                      Now let’s move on to page 20 of the manual/workbook, which shows an enlarged view of the WESPER framework and what the acronym stands for.  It is designed to be a memory tool so that you will easily remember the steps as you create and execute Your Life Plan Blueprint.

                      Although the WESPER framework can be used to reach individual purposes, objectives, and goals in life, the real power is achieved when it is used in conjunction with your wheel of life. This will allow your entire life to be in balance as you pursue your overall life purpose and your objectives for each area of life. The Wheel of Life overview is presented on page 21 of Your Life Plan Blueprint.

                      On our trek for today, we explored an overview of both the WESPER framework and The Wheel of Life. These are the two core components that make up Your Life Plan Blueprint system and is the structure and process for designing an effective and impactful life plan. Tomorrow I will lay out the Life Planning Philosophy, and we will learn the important concepts of the WESPER framework. This information is on pages 22 & 23 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, and 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.
