Life ought to be simple. It isn't but ought to be.
There are factors beyond our control. Which is alright. The sad part is that we underestimate factors within our control and even more so the factors that can be brought under control in stage. This is the challenging area where most of our self-improvement movement / industry is focussed with most them not being aware of this.
Besides, as we move ahead in life especially beyond our teenage, our challenges transition from being cute to life altering. Additionally it is generally at this stage that our decision making begins becoming independent of our parents / guardians in a staggered manner, we begin to enjoy our freedoms and experience first hand the results of our independent decisions some of which may be unpleasant.
This is the stage of life when we start laying foundations of our life. Thankfully for most, these aren't set in stone and we can make changes in later years but for many this is the time period where we set a template for the rest of our lives albeit to a varied degree.
After this stage of life begin more serious stages of life. Serious doesn't mean you don't have fun. It just means that in terms of big career, financial and relationship decisions you generally take actions based on your evolution over the preceding stages of life and this reinforces the template of your life that takes you to the next stages of life.
This is followed by arrival of dependents (emotionally, financially and even legally) in addition to you getting more mature and realizing or willingly / grudgingly taking on responsibilities avoided until now or taking on even more responsibilities that you were taking on until this time.
There are a few more life brackets but i will skip those for now. The reason for introducing these brackets here is to make aware those who are yet to enter these stages or to reinforce / clarify understanding of those who are somewhere in the middle and are either aware of the changes they need to make but find it difficult to or those who feel frustrated but are oblivious of the path they need to get on and what changes are required for them to be able to change their path.
Needless to say, the earlier in life you develop this understanding the better it is as later in life your life and its outcomes are far less entirely depend on your thought process / strategy and even decisions. That isn't necessarily negative. It just is a reality that needs to be mentioned.
The Power of a Week Mindset, Model and Book are essentially designed to help you keep in the game no matter which stage of life you happen to be in. This isn't a motivation session that gives you fake energy like a motivation session with no follow-up on how to make it relevant for your life while making sure that we have a serious shot at countering the law of diminishing returns.
We strongly repeatedly reinforce the idea that it is our life till our last breath and we ought to make every effort to control what we can and expand what we control for the outcomes that we want from our life.
This model / program has been deeply thought through (still is and will continue to evolve) and as you read the rest of the content in other pages you would see a string of ideas that bind themselves in a carefully crafted string that when followed in principle but to your unique life and made your own holds the power to make immense positive changes to your life in a calibrated manner with results that last and offer a foundation to build on even further. Most of all, we are against the idea of letting Inertia setting in the important aspects of your life.
